So I’ve been thinking about this for a while… you ever notice how one bad estimate can mess up an entire project? Like, you plan everything down to the last screw, then boom material costs jump or quantities turn out wrong. Been there more than once.
Lately, I’ve been looking into some
estimating services in USA and honestly, it’s kinda eye-opening. These guys really know what they’re doing way better accuracy than the old spreadsheets I used to rely on. Feels like the whole process just runs smoother when you’ve got proper numbers from the start.
I’m curious though, anyone else tried hiring outside estimators? Did it actually help keep your projects under budget, or was it just hype? Would love to hear how it went for you all.
