Bid-Ready Remote Estimates
A bid-ready remote estimate means you send drawings and specs and get back a complete, itemized construction estimate the next business day, priced to your template and ready to put your margin on. No software to run, no takeoff to finish yourself.
This is the core of what K2E does. You send whatever you have, an experienced estimator does the quantity takeoff, prices labor and materials against real cost data, and hands you a document you can bid from as-is.
What's included
- Quantity takeoffs from your drawings
- Labor and materials priced line by line
- CSI-organized or your own template, your call
- Assumptions and exclusions written out
- Next business day turnaround on most work

Construction Takeoff Services
Just need the quantities? We measure and count off your drawings and hand back a clean, organized takeoff you can price yourself or have us price.
Subcontractor Sourcing & Quote Leveling
An estimate is only as good as the coverage behind it. We reach out to subs, pre-qualify them, chase scope gaps, and level the quotes side by side.
Overflow & Peak-Season Estimating
When the season turns and bid invitations outrun your team, we absorb the overflow. Extra estimating capacity by the project, with no headcount to carry.
Work With Your Team
We run as an extension of your office. We use your unit costs, talk directly to your PMs and field staff, and absorb overflow when the season turns.
Preconstruction & Conceptual Estimating
Need a number before the drawings are finished? We build conceptual and budget estimates from schematic design or a scope narrative, so you can steer the design to the budget.
