Metals Estimating Services

Offering you accurate, affordable, and timely structural steel, rebar, and miscellaneous metals estimating services and detailing services for the wide scope of construction projects and help you reduce overhead costs, avoid wastage and save the environment.

Precision Estimator started as a steel consulting group for metal framing contractors, steel erectors, steel manufacturers, distributors, and fabricators which later on developed as a total pre-construction estimating consultancy. Our team of skilled structural steel estimators and engineers have developed the best estimating practices to analyze and audit takeoffs and control construction costs for our clients.

For metals estimating services, all decks, trusses, railings, stud framing, joists, gratings, and castings are properly described and quantified which is again proof checked by senior estimators to ensure that the quality of the minute things in takeoffs should be kept intact. Our emphasis on accuracy and detail not only lessens the waste but also contributes to the green environment by ordering the less amount at the construction site and keeping away the dumped waste. Please visit our profile on The Blue Book.

Many of the steel fabricators and manufacturers, even steel framing contractors have trouble reading the technical details from the plans and making accurate takeoffs with structural details due to less technical know-how. We specialize in providing a complete range of steel estimating and detailing services with the ability to handle complex structures.

  • Our estimators and detailers are well conversant with the manufacturing process, specifications, techniques like laser welding, advanced cutting, etc.
  • Fast turnaround within 24 to 48 hours to quickly quote prices to your clients.
  • Detailed cost estimate comprising material, labor, welders, cranes, fuel, equipment, etc along with labor hours required for rebar erection.
  • Easy to review and edit estimates with color-coded marked up plans.
  • Complete structural steel detailing and shop drawing services for all types of infrastructures, residential, commercial, industrial projects from planning through completion.
  • We render optimum bar bending schedules for structural steel, rebar, piping, sheet metal, and HVAC duct fabrications/erections.
  • If required by the client, we also advise various alternatives that help save money.
  • 24/7 support on live chat and email.
