CEO Message
In my 22 years of contractor experience, I have worked with many talented contractors from Texas who lost bids they should’ve won. Not because they weren’t good enough. Because they didn’t have time for accurate estimates. I founded Texas Estimation in Austin in 2008 to fix that. Since then, we’ve helped contractors win projects across Texas, from Dallas commercial builds to Austin tech developments.
I learned this early:
“Precise Estimates Win Jobs but Fast Estimates Win More Jobs.”
At Texas Estimation, We Help Contractors Win More, Protect Their Margins, and Grow, without The Cost of Hiring In-House Estimators.
