What Is Trade Estimating?
Focused estimates for the work your team performs
A construction trade is a specialized portion of project work, such as concrete, structural steel, electrical, plumbing, drywall, or roofing. Trade estimating isolates that scope from the full project so contractors and subcontractors can understand quantities, costs, exclusions, and bid requirements before submitting a proposal.
BidAccurate reviews the drawings, specifications, schedules, and addenda relevant to your selected division. The deliverable is organized around the trade you are pricing, making it easier to review coverage, request supplier quotes, and prepare a confident bid.
- Measured quantities organized by trade and scope
- Material, labor, and equipment cost breakdowns when requested
- Marked-up plans for review and quantity verification
- Bid-ready Excel and PDF reports aligned with your workflow

Got Questions?
We've Got answers.
What is construction trade estimating?
Construction trade estimating focuses on one specialized scope of work, such as concrete, masonry, electrical, plumbing, drywall, or roofing. The estimator reviews the relevant drawings and specifications to identify quantities, pricing requirements, exclusions, and bid responsibilities for that trade.
Can BidAccurate estimate more than one trade on a project?
Yes. We can prepare an estimate for a single trade, several selected divisions, or a broader project scope. The included trades, deliverables, pricing basis, and schedule are confirmed after we review the project documents.
What documents should I send for a trade estimate?
Send the latest drawings, specifications, addenda, scope notes, project location, bid deadline, and any supplier quotes or company templates you want us to use. Clearly identify the trade and any alternates, exclusions, or labor requirements that affect your bid.
What will I receive with my trade estimate?
Deliverables may include an organized quantity takeoff, material and labor cost breakdowns, marked-up drawings, scope notes, assumptions, exclusions, and an Excel or PDF summary. The exact package depends on the selected trade and agreed service scope.
Do you provide trade estimates for subcontractors?
Yes. BidAccurate supports subcontractors, general contractors, suppliers, developers, and builders. We can align the estimate with your trade responsibilities, preferred cost codes, labor rates, supplier pricing, and bid format when those requirements are provided.
How long does a trade estimate take?
Turnaround depends on the trade, project size, drawing quality, complexity, number of alternates, and bid deadline. We confirm the expected delivery date and fee after reviewing the files and agreed scope.
