I still have a few questions...
How many customers do you have?
A. We work for over 500 companies.
What actual, real-world, experiences do you have?
A. Ron and Ed and Rich, who you'll meet later, have many years of competitive bidding experience in private and public work. Remember, they were both employed as chief estimators for several construction firms before joining forces at Walsh Estimating.
How do you guarantee your work?
A. We don't! What? You heard right. We are not a bonding company. We guarantee our work up to the amount you paid for the estimate--and that's it. If you are uncomfortable with this, please do not hire us.

Having said that --We promise to do the best job we can. If we don't, we won't be in business very long.
But I'm afraid I'll miss the "gut feel" of the job by not doing all the takeoff myself?
A. You will miss it! That's why you need experienced people who supply more than "raw" numbers. We add comments to our quantities that communicate the "gut feel" that you miss by not doing the whole takeoff yourself.
But how much does it all cost?
A. Most of our work is on an hourly basis. We also quote lump sum prices after we review the plans.
Sounds great! -- I have a job for you now! -- How do I get started?
A. That's easy! Call (800) 448-1167 or email us at info@walshestimating.com, to discuss your project - or just send us your plans . . . . And be working on them in the morning.
