Build with Confidence with Outsourced Building Estimators
Building estimators keep everything on track before a single brick is laid. They read the drawings, crunch the numbers, check the materials, and give your team the figures it needs to quote confidently and win more projects.
But when you’re managing multiple jobs, tenders, and deadlines, quoting becomes another time-consuming chore that risks getting overlooked.
Hiring more people sounds easy until you factor in recruitment, training, and extra overhead costs. And even then, your in-house team still has to deal with competing priorities.
We at Outsourced Staff aim to connect builders, developers, and contractors with skilled outsourced building estimators who understand the numbers, know the timelines, and fit into your workflow without fuss.

Cost estimation is essential, but it doesn’t need to eat up your week. Outsourcing building estimators gives you flexibility without the stress of managing another full-time hire.
You get clear, consistent estimates prepared by professionals who understand your industry, pricing models, and software. And best of all? Your internal team gets to focus on getting your project going.
That issue often starts with an inaccurate estimate. Getting your numbers right at the start can be the difference between a profitable project and one that eats your margin.
Outsourcing building estimation lets you be truly competitive and secure.
