Excavators, loaders, rollers, pavers, and trucks drive much of the cost of site construction. Equipment productivity, haul distances, and fuel consumption all shape the final number. Sitework estimating prices how the job will actually be built, with deep cut and fill analysis available through our earthwork estimating services.
Storm, sanitary, water, and dry utilities often run deep beneath the site and connect to public systems. Trench depth, dewatering, rock, and bedding materials can change costs significantly. Careful review of civil profiles and details keeps underground work accurately priced.
Parking lots, detention ponds, utility connections, and landscaping often cost more than owners expect. Early, accurate sitework pricing helps developers and contractors avoid budget surprises. Sitework estimates also fit into our complete construction estimating services.
We price clearing, grubbing, tree removal, pavement removal, building demolition, and debris hauling. Disposal fees and recycling credits are included where applicable. Contractors start every project with accurate site preparation costs.
We estimate silt fence, inlet protection, construction entrances, sediment basins, and stabilization based on the SWPPP and erosion control plans. Inspections and maintenance are included over the project duration. Contractors meet permit requirements without hidden costs.
We price mass grading, building pad preparation, subgrade preparation, and fine grading for paving and landscape areas. Compaction and testing requirements are included. This supports a complete sitework price alongside detailed earthwork analysis.
We estimate storm pipe by size and material, along with inlets, manholes, headwalls, detention ponds, and underground detention systems. Trench depth, bedding, and backfill are included. Contractors get dependable pricing for one of the most critical site systems.
We price gravity sewer, force mains, manholes, cleanouts, service laterals, and lift stations. Connections to public systems and testing are included. Utility contractors bid sewer work with confidence.
We estimate water mains, valves, fire hydrants, fittings, service lines, and meter connections. Thrust blocks, testing, and disinfection are included. Contractors get complete water system pricing for public and private projects.
We price electrical conduit, telecom duct banks, gas lines, and site lighting conduit. Trenching, sand bedding, and pull boxes are included. Dry utilities are captured instead of left to allowances.
We calculate base course, binder course, and surface course tonnage based on thickness and area. Milling, overlays, and patching are priced where required. Paving contractors get accurate asphalt quantities and costs.
We estimate curb and gutter, sidewalks, ADA ramps, concrete paving, dumpster pads, and equipment pads. Formwork, reinforcement, and finishes are included. Site concrete is priced in detail across the entire site.
We count parking stripes, arrows, crosswalks, accessible stalls, wheel stops, and traffic signs. These items are often forgotten during bidding. Contractors protect margins by including every finishing detail.
We price trees, shrubs, sod, seeding, mulch, topsoil, and irrigation systems based on landscape plans. Warranty and establishment periods are considered. Landscape contractors and GCs get complete site finish pricing.
We estimate chain link and ornamental fencing, gates, bike racks, benches, trash enclosures, and site furnishings. Each item is counted from civil and landscape drawings. The final touches of a site are priced as carefully as the utilities.
Every site has different soils, utilities, paving needs, and permit requirements. We estimate each project around the conditions and standards that apply to it.
Site contractors use our estimates to bid more projects and manage equipment costs.
Utility contractors rely on our pipe, structure, and trench pricing for competitive bids.
Paving companies use our asphalt and concrete quantities to price projects accurately.
GCs use our sitework estimates to check subcontractor bids and confirm complete site scope.
Developers rely on our pricing to budget subdivisions and commercial sites.
Engineering firms use our estimates to provide cost opinions and compare design options.
Public owners use our independent estimates to evaluate bids and plan capital projects.
Sitework estimates depend on understanding civil plans, profiles, and site conditions. Here is how we deliver your price.
Upload civil drawings, utility profiles, geotechnical reports, SWPPP documents, and bid forms.
We confirm which site systems are included and send a fixed fee with a delivery date.
We measure quantities, price materials, crews, equipment, and trucking, and complete a senior review.
You receive an estimate organized by system and bid item, with quantities, costs, and clear assumptions.
Browse real samples of our takeoffs, cost estimates, and drafting work to see the level of detail you can expect on your own project.
Pricing depends on site size, number of utility systems, paving areas, and project complexity. A small retail pad costs less than a large subdivision or industrial park. We send a fixed fee after reviewing your plans.
Small and medium sites are usually completed in two to four business days. Larger developments may take four to seven business days. We plan around your bid date.
Sitework covers the full range of site construction, including utilities, paving, drainage, site concrete, and landscaping. Earthwork focuses on cut, fill, grading, and soil movement. For detailed volume analysis, our earthwork estimating services team can provide a dedicated estimate.
We calculate paving area and multiply it by the specified thickness for each course, then convert volume to tonnage using material density. Waste and milling are included where required.
Yes. We price utilities by depth, trench width, bedding, backfill, and compaction based on civil profiles and details.
We use current fuel prices for equipment and trucking and can include escalation allowances based on your project schedule.
Yes. We price erosion and sediment control measures, inspections, and maintenance according to the SWPPP and permit requirements.
Yes. We organize estimates by bid item and unit price format for municipal and DOT projects.
When geotechnical reports or site conditions indicate groundwater or rock, we include dewatering and rock excavation costs or list them as clear allowances.
Yes. We price curb ramps, sidewalks, curb and gutter, concrete pads, and other site concrete items according to project details.
Yes. We price planting, sod, seeding, topsoil, mulch, and irrigation systems based on landscape drawings.
Yes. We compare sitework bids with the plans and our estimate, highlighting missing scope, exclusions, and pricing differences.
