WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FRO-----------:
I don't simply provide quantities. I review the drawings and scope carefully to identify missing information, discrepancies, scope gaps, and items that may affect the estimate.
My deliverables are organized for easy pricing and review, including clear quantity breakdowns, Excel schedules, marked-up drawings, assumptions, inclusions/exclusions, and trade-by-trade scope information.
My engineering and construction-management background also allows me to understand how quantities translate into actual construction work—not just measure what is shown on a drawing.
I am comfortable working with US and Australian construction documentation and can adapt to your preferred estimating templates, measurement standards, pricing structure, and workflow.
If you need a reliable remote Construction Estimator / Quantity Surveyor who can take drawings from PDF to organized, review-ready quantities and support your bidding process, I would be glad to work with your team.
