At Estimating Craft LLC, our preliminary estimate or conceptual cost estimate service is designed to provide an early forecast of your construction project’s potential costs, helping contractors, real estate developers, home builders, and owners evaluate the economic feasibility before detailed drawings are developed. This crucial estimate assists in making informed decisions related to fund allocation, setting a preliminary budget, and comparing initial design alternatives. Since preliminary cost estimates are prepared during the early stages of a project—often before detailed design and construction documents are available—they are primarily based on historical data adjusted for factors such as project location, size, and timing, combined with sound engineering principles. Estimating Craft LLC employs various types of preliminary estimates tailored to different phases of the project lifecycle. The accuracy of these estimates depends largely on the information provided by the client, ensuring you receive reliable guidance for budgeting and project planning right from the start.
