Too busy to quote?
Are you missing out on decent building projects because you can’t find the time to stop and quote - especially if they’re more complex?
Spending nights and weekends pricing?
No one started a building firm to spend loads of time number crunching - and definitely not out of hours. Your skills are required elsewhere.
Worried your profit is dropping?
If you miss something in the plans, if you don’t allow for every box of nails, roll of lead, if there are delays… you’re funding the under quote.
Getting behind schedule?
Organisation is the name of the game. Not ordering your materials in plenty of time risks getting what you want when you want it.
The solution…
...to all these challenges is the Coomers Estimating Service brought to you by HBXL who have been producing quotations for the UK builder, developer and self-builder for over 10 years. They’re the best of the best when it comes to residential estimating solutions - and they’ve never missed a deadline - ever! This is what you can look forward to:
- Estimates and quotations produced by professional estimators (all with a construction background).
- A dedicated estimator for the duration of the job.
- An emphasis on getting the quote right rather than getting it out fast.
- So you can expect the odd phone call or email to discuss any queries.
- A detailed, accurate, business-winning quotation for your customer.
- Including all the materials, labour, plant, wear and tear and wastage. Plus we’ll include your overheads and profit margins - rates as confirmed by you.
- The option for a ‘start-date’ quotation so you don’t get caught out by inflationary price rises.
- A pack of valuable reports and schedules including the customer’s quotation, a Build Programme, and detailed breakdown of costs by phase and resource type, and material schedules.
- Delivery on the day it was promised.
NEW: 3D Models
3D models like these can now be provided with certain estimates, if the job is appropriate. Each job will be assessed on receipt of the details.
How the Estimating Service works
- To quote you a fee for producing the estimate pack the estimating team needs as much info as possible - so a full set of drawings in pdf, bmp or jpeg format please.
- Simply follow the link here to the uploader and either select your files or drag and drop them onto the button - it’s that easy.
- Alternatively, you can email the files to coomers@estimating-service.co.uk or your Coomers sales contact, or to your branch.
- The project’s feasibility will be checked and then you’ll receive the (no-obligation) fee details and estimate delivery date within one working day.
- On your approval, payment to the estimating team (HBXL) is next - credit, debit or by BACS transfer.
- You’ll then receive a form to complete so that the estimate is tailored to your personal requirements.
- Typically, from the time the estimator starts your project, it takes 3-4 working days for a smaller job, and 7-10 working days for a larger one.
- And then you’ll have your comprehensive estimate pack!
