Bidding season doesn’t wait for you to hire and train an in-house estimator. Freelance estimating services give builders access to accurate takeoffs and cost estimates exactly when a project calls for them, without adding permanent staff to the payroll.
COMET Estimating LLC works with builders across the USA who need this kind of flexibility. Whether you’re chasing one bid or juggling several at once, our freelance estimating support adjusts to the volume and pace of your actual workload.
A project’s cost questions don’t stop after the bid is won. They show up early during planning, again at bid time, and often mid-construction when scope shifts. Our freelance estimating services cover each of these stages as they come up. Instead of hiring extra staff to handle occasional estimating needs, you can bring us in exactly when a project calls for it. Below is a look at the specific services we provide.
Skip the ongoing cost of salaries, benefits, training, and software licenses that come with an in-house estimator.
Work with estimators who handle a range of project types, instead of relying on one generalist stretched across every trade.
Get detailed estimates back quickly, giving you more time to review and refine your numbers before the deadline.
Estimates built on current material and labor pricing help reduce the risk of underbidding or leaving money on the table.
Scale support up during busy bidding periods and back down when things slow, without the cost of hiring or layoffs.
Free up your internal team to focus on running jobs instead of splitting attention between job sites and spreadsheets.
We built our process to fit into how you already work, without adding extra steps or slowing down your bidding schedule. From the moment you send your plans to the day you receive your final numbers, you stay informed at every stage.
01
Send us your drawings, specifications, and any relevant project documents. The more detail you provide, the more accurate your estimate will be.
02
We review your project scope and send you a straightforward quote covering our estimating fee and expected turnaround time.
03
Once you approve the quote, we confirm the project details and our estimators begin the takeoff and costing process.
04
You get a detailed, organized cost report ready for bidding or budgeting, along with support for any follow-up questions or revisions.
Our estimators bring hands-on industry knowledge to every takeoff, not just numbers generated from a program.
We work around your bid deadlines, so a tight timeline never becomes your problem to solve alone.
Every estimate is organized and formatted so you can drop it straight into a proposal, budget, or planning document.
Revisions, follow-up questions, and change order pricing come up as projects evolve, and we stay available to handle them.
Between site visits, client updates, and daily job pressures, sitting down to run a full takeoff is easy to keep pushing back. Freelance estimating exists for exactly that reason, giving you accurate numbers without pulling your attention away from the work in front of you. We reviews your plans, prepares detailed material and labor quantities, and delivers a clear, bid-ready estimate on your timeline. No added staff, no long-term contract, just support when a project calls for it.
Benefit from modern software, updated rates, and precise takeoffs that give you a competitive edge.
We want to be a dependable freelance estimating resource for contractors across the United States. That starts with one standard: every client should trust that the numbers we provide reflect the true scope of their project, without the cost of building an in-house team.
Our mission is to deliver accurate, dependable estimates on a timeline that works for you. We combine practical construction knowledge with a careful review process, so every estimate holds up from bid day through the life of the project.
Absolutely brilliant! Spot-on estimates, quick turnaround, and zero hassle. Honestly, I wouldn't go anywhere else.
