In the complex world of metal construction, accuracy is paramount. Our team of certified metals estimators utilizes cutting-edge software like Tekla Structures and PlanSwift to perform highly precise takeoffs for structural steel, rebar, and miscellaneous metals. We meticulously quantify every beam, column, plate, and fastener, ensuring that your estimates reflect the true scope of work down to the smallest detail. This rigorous approach minimizes material waste, prevents costly overruns, and provides you with a reliable foundation for your bids.
Our expertise extends beyond just numbers; we understand the nuances of metal fabrication and erection. This allows us to provide not just quantities, but also detailed labor and equipment costs, helping you to truly understand the full financial picture of your metal projects. Trust JU Estimating to deliver the precision you need to win more bids and maximize profitability.
Maintaining an in-house metals estimator can be a significant overhead. From salaries and benefits to expensive software licenses and continuous training, the costs quickly add up. By outsourcing your metals estimating needs to JU Estimating, you can achieve substantial savings, often up to 60% compared to an in-house team. This allows you to reallocate resources, reduce fixed costs, and invest more in your core business operations.
Beyond cost savings, outsourcing provides unparalleled flexibility and access to specialized expertise. You get accurate, timely estimates only when you need them, without the commitment of a full-time employee. Our team of dedicated metals specialists ensures your bids are competitive, precise, and delivered quickly, giving you a distinct advantage in a demanding market.
