Western Estimating provides component-level MEP estimating services for residential, commercial and industrial projects across the USA and Canada. From ductwork and piping to panels, conductors and fixtures, we quantify every mechanical, electrical and plumbing item on your drawings and deliver a bid-ready estimate in 24 to 48 hours — at a fraction of the cost of an in-house estimator.
Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems routinely account for 25–40% of total construction cost — and they are the hardest divisions to quantify. A missed run of conduit, an under-counted fixture schedule, or ductwork measured off the wrong drawing revision can wipe out the profit margin of an otherwise well-priced bid. That's why general contractors and MEP subcontractors outsource their takeoffs to specialists.
Our estimators work exclusively from your drawings — quantifying each system component by component, referencing every quantity to the sheet it was measured from, and pricing against RSMeans and current local market data. You receive a clean, organized workbook you can drop straight into your bid, with markup guidance if you want it.
We provide a complete range of mechanical estimating services for a wide portfolio of projects including fabrication, design and installation of HVAC systems, refrigeration systems, insulations, plumbing and piping systems. Every mechanical component is quantified from your drawings and organized per CSI Division 23.
We are experts in providing estimating solutions for all types of electric systems for residential, commercial and industrial projects. Our services include electrical material takeoffs, bid estimates, bid preparation & submission and electrical cost per square foot. We don't just count devices — we help you set the right markup plan so your bid is both competitive and profitable, organized per CSI Division 26.
Whether it is an estimate for new installations, additions or repair of plumbing systems, we do it all — from residential to commercial and industrial projects. Our estimates include every detail and description you need to bid effectively, set good profit margins, and procure material from vendors with confidence, organized per CSI Division 22.
