Our Story
Construction Estimating Inc was founded with a clear vision: to provide Canadian contractors with the accurate, reliable estimating services they need to succeed in an increasingly competitive market.
We started as a small team of experienced estimators who understood the challenges facing contractors across Canada. Too many good contractors were losing profitable projects due to inaccurate estimates, inadequate takeoffs, or simply not having enough time to properly analyze complex project requirements.
Today, we're proud to serve contractors from coast to coast, helping them win more bids and grow their businesses with our professional estimating services. Our 96% bid win rate speaks to the accuracy and reliability of our work, while our 24-48 hour turnaround times ensure you never miss a bidding opportunity.
What sets us apart is our deep understanding of Canadian construction practices, building codes, and regional market conditions. We're not just estimators – we're partners in your success.
