After an initial visit, Landmark will be able to give a general idea of the cost of the project. If the initial number is within budget, then the next step would be to finalize a design and choose the materials and begin the accurate estimate.
To achieve an accurate estimate, Landmark uses a customized software system that allows project evaluations and data from recent jobs are easily accessible to use for new estimates. Landmark also uses its own online building materials calculator (www.gotakeoff.com) for fast and accurate materials lists, from foundation hardware to trim work. The use of this program has been proven to increase job efficiency.
One final step toward the accurate number is to meet subcontractors on the site and with the design in hand and a first-hand look at the sitem, they can give Landmark an accurate bid.
Even though no two remodels are the same, our estimates have continued to be increasingly accurate over time.
