Contractor Training for estimating 

Don’t Underestimate What Your Estimating System Could Do For Your Business

Many contractors look at estimating simply as a way to determine the cost of a project.  Then, when the project is sold, most have to estimate the project all over again just to get a materials list and figure out how long things will take so they can create a project schedule.

There Is A Better Way!

Being strategic about the process you use to collect and document project information when selling to customers can really make a big difference for your business.   Having the right tools and knowledge to help you get it done will be essential.  Having the right tools for the job can help you make much more money!
