Accurate residential cost estimation is crucial for managing the financial aspects of a construction project effectively. At Paragon Estimates, we understand the importance of precision in residential construction cost estimating, which is vital for project planning. Our services provide valuable insights into potential expenses, enabling efficient calculation of markups, budget allocation, financing arrangements, client quotations, and negotiations with contractors and subcontractors.

Paragon Estimates stands out in the field of residential construction estimation, offering detailed analysis of plans using state-of-the-art software for precise quantity measurement. We also utilize our construction cost database and RSMeans for zip-code-specific pricing, ensuring localized and accurate residential estimating.

Our approach includes a thorough analysis of labor costs, distinguishing between union and prevailing wages and accounting for regular and overtime hours. We organize the bill of materials based on CSI MasterFormat divisions or a customized CSI cost pattern, presented in Excel spreadsheets for easy review and vendor pricing requests.
