The Best Contractors
Are Missing Bids.
The reason most excavation contractors aren't making more money isn't their crew, their equipment, or their reputation. It's that they can't get to every bid.
They see work they know they could win. The plans come in. The deadline is in two weeks. But there aren't enough hours in the day to estimate it alongside everything else — so they let it walk.
That job goes to someone else. It happens over and over. And most contractors have no idea how much revenue they're leaving on the table because they've never been able to bid at full capacity.
That's exactly the problem we exist to solve.
No Time to Estimate
The owner is running jobs during the day and estimating at night. Something has to give — and it's usually the bid.
Missed Scope Items
Erosion controls, dewatering, rock allowances — the items nobody priced that show up on every job and eat your margin.
Tight Bid Windows
Three bids due the same week. You submit two. The one you missed was the most profitable job you'd have won all year.
The Cost of In-House
A qualified excavation estimator costs $80–120K/year. That's before benefits, training, and the 4 months it takes to get them productive.

We Do One Thing.
Exceptionally Well.
Excavation-Only Specialists
We don't estimate MEP, framing, or drywall. We go deep in one discipline — excavation and civil site work — and because of that depth we deliver accuracy that generalist firms can't match.
Two-Stage QA on Every Job
Every takeoff is reviewed by a second independent estimator before delivery. Not one person checking their own work — two separate sets of eyes reconciling against source drawings.
Photo Attachments Included
We pull the relevant plan details and attach them directly to the takeoff. You never have to dig through a 200-page plan set to verify a number — everything is right there.
Flat Monthly Rate
No per-bid invoices. No friction every time a job lands on your desk. One predictable monthly cost — and you send us everything you've got.
We Learn Your Business
Over time we dial in your production rates, your markup structure, your preferred suppliers. The estimates get faster and more accurate every month as we build knowledge about how your company operates.

Our Guarantee
If we miss a quantity, we fix it free — and your next takeoff is on us. We put it in writing because we're confident enough in our process to back it up every time.
Real Results.
Real Contractors.
Before Excavation Estimation, I was doing all of my takeoffs myself — nights and weekends. I was submitting maybe 4 or 5 bids a month and constantly missing deadlines. Within the first 60 days of working with them, we were submitting 12 to 15 bids a month. We won three jobs in the first month we never would have had time to bid on our own. The numbers are accurate, the turnaround is real, and they actually learn how you operate.
We serve excavation contractors across 28 states. Wherever your job is, we deliver your takeoff 48 hours before your bid date — so you have time to review and submit with confidence. Don't see your state? Reach out — we're expanding.
