Trade, MEP
MEP Estimating Services
Mechanical, electrical and plumbing quantities combined into a single, fully coordinated estimate, covering fire stopping, insulation, sprinklers, ductwork and every system in between. A trade estimator handles the mep scope, confirms the fee before starting, and lists every assumption and.
MEP estimating
One coordinated estimate across three trades
Mechanical, electrical and plumbing scope rarely sits in neat, separate boxes, ductwork clashes with conduit, pipe runs cross cable trays, and a bid that treats the three trades independently is a bid with gaps. Our MEP estimators quantify all three disciplines together, so clash points and shared risk are caught before the tender is submitted rather than during construction.
Every MEP package we deliver includes fire stopping, fireproofing, moisture protection, sprinklers, spray and pipe insulation, heating and cooling equipment, sheet metal and ductwork, priced with current zip-code based material and labour rates.
Whether you are a general contractor coordinating subs or a mechanical, electrical or plumbing specialist bidding your own scope, we return a detailed, ready-to-submit estimate in 24 to 48 hours.
