Service Pillar 01

Estimating
& Takeoffs.

Your estimating department. Without the overhead. Agtek-powered quantity takeoffs and full cost estimates, built by someone who spent 15 years pricing civil work for national contractors.

The Problem

Most contractors lose money before the bid goes out.

Not because they can't do the work. Because they are pricing it at night, by hand, after a full day in the field. Rushed takeoffs miss quantities. Missed quantities kill margin or lose the job outright.

PCC gives you the same estimating firepower the large national contractors run on, without putting a six-figure estimator on your payroll. Every takeoff is built in Agtek, the industry-standard earthwork and sitework platform, and backed by 15 years of real preconstruction experience. You get numbers you can defend, bid packages you can stand behind, and your evenings back.

Who this is for
Owner-operators bidding by night who need capacity
Established contractors with overflow they can't get to
Owners, engineers, and GCs needing an independent estimate
What's Included

From plans to a bid-ready number.

Earthwork & Utility Takeoffs

Cut and fill, mass balance, trench volumes, and structure quantities pulled straight from the plans in Agtek. The dirt work that makes or breaks a civil bid.

Full Cost Estimation

Labor, equipment, material, and subcontractor pricing built into one bid-ready number, organized the way you actually run jobs.

3D Surface Modeling

Existing versus proposed surfaces modeled for accurate volumes, haul distances, and balance so you are not guessing at the biggest cost driver on the job.

Material Quantity Takeoffs

Aggregate, pipe, concrete, and asphalt counted and verified so your material orders and unit prices are grounded in real numbers.

Budget Creation & Cost Coding

Estimates structured to your cost codes so the number you bid is the number you can manage against once the job is running.

Scenario Analysis

Value engineering and what-if pricing before you commit, so you walk into the bid knowing where your margin and your risk actually sit.

The Value

Executive-level estimating. On demand, not on payroll.

Work with PCC and you get 15 years of national-contractor experience, executive-level estimating talent, and top-of-the-line Agtek software on your bids. All of it on demand, without the cost and overhead of putting a full-time estimator on payroll, and without the software bill or the ramp-up time that comes with a new hire.

Pricing is flexible and built around the work you actually need, not a rigid package you have to squeeze into. You will always know the number before any work starts. No hourly meter running, no surprises. Send us the plans and you will get a clear, fixed quote back.

Proof

In the words of a client.

"Tyler and PCC have been an invaluable resource for me the last couple of years with regards to providing quantity checks, construction cost estimates and constructability reviews on a number of my projects. I highly recommend PCC to any outfit who may be looking for such services."

FAQ

Common questions.

What software do you use for takeoffs?

Every earthwork and sitework takeoff is built in Agtek, the same industry-standard platform the large national contractors run on. You get the accuracy and defensibility of enterprise tooling without carrying the license or the estimator on your payroll.

Can you do a takeoff for a job you are not managing?

Yes. Most estimating engagements are takeoff and pricing only. You bid it, you build it, we hand you numbers you can stand behind. There is no requirement to bundle any other service.

How fast can I get an estimate?

Standard turnaround depends on sheet count and complexity, and you will get a timeline before we start. Priority (24 to 48 hour) and emergency (under 24 hour or weekend) turnaround are available when a bid date is closing in.

Do I have to sign a monthly retainer?

No. You can send one takeoff or a hundred. Many clients start with a single project and grow into ongoing capacity once they see the numbers hold up. Retainers exist if you want consistent capacity, but they are never a requirement.
