What Our Clients Say About Us

Testimonials

We used Lumber Estimating Services on a 47-unit townhome project in New Jersey. Their framing takeoff was delivered in 36 hours and was within 3% of our actual material purchase the tightest number we've ever had from an outside estimator. We've used them on six projects since.

Dillo Brown GWE contractors NY

As a framing sub, I was losing bids because my lumber estimates were either too high or too low. Lumber Estimating Services gave me a certified takeoff I could hand directly to my supplier. First bid I used it on, I hit the number. That's the kind of accuracy that wins work.
