FAQ

The last guy i used missed all the blindspots and we barely broke even - why would i use you?

If it's on the plans, its in your measure. We hunt for the details that QS' without real buildnig experience typically miss. Having spent 5 years immersed in both commercial and residential documentation, it's gone from being an excercise in measurement to becoming a visualisation excercise.

If this works out, can you price for multiple jobs at a time instead of stand-alone one-off pricing?

Yes. There's more efficiencies in continuing a tranche of projects compared to stop-starting with one-off measures. This will be taken into consideration when preparing your fee proposal and will always be more cost effective.

Those PDF's and Excel workbooks are fancy and all, but can you do it in my format that im used to?

One hundred percent. If you have a format or template that you're used to, send it through and that's what you'll get back.

How much and what's the turnaround?

Prices per trade for standalone single dwelling houses start from $360+GST. Typically these are turned around in 1-2 working days.
