Turnaround time

With our experience of earthwork we know how little time there is to prepare a bid. Average turnaround is one to three days depending on the size and detail of your project.

Pricing

We work on an hourly basis, so pricing varies with the size and detail of the project. As a guide, a small project taking around five hours costs roughly $300 for a simple earthwork takeoff. You get a firm quote back within 24 hours of receiving your drawings.

Follow-up service

Once the report is sent we call you to review the project, so you are clear on what was included and how we reached our conclusions. We will make minor revisions, adjustments or changes as quickly as possible while you prepare your submittal — anything taking under an hour is not charged for. Our goal is for you to be a successful bidder.
