Concrete estimating software that measures slab, footings, and flatwork.
Upload the foundation plans and get a concrete estimate in minutes — slab, footings, and flatwork measured, priced in your numbers.
Measuring slab area, tallying footing linear footage, and adding flatwork and stem walls off a foundation plan is slow — and a wrong yardage means over-ordering mud or coming up short on a pour day.
Why concrete contractors switch to EstimateBy
Everything you need to bid faster and more accurately — and stop paying for the parts you can automate.
Every slab, footing, and flatwork is read straight off the plans, sheet by sheet, against the legend on each page. No skimming, no "close enough" — the count that leaves your desk is the count that's on the drawings.
A full-time concrete estimator runs $65,000–$95,000 a year. A takeoff service charges $150–$500 per plan set and takes days. EstimateBy does the same area takeoff in minutes for a flat monthly price — no salary, no per-plan invoice, no waiting.
The tedious part — counting area and pricing every line — is the part that eats your evenings and weekends. Drop the PDF, get a priced estimate back before your coffee's cold, and spend that time bidding more work or actually resting.
Load your own price book once and every takeoff comes back in your material and labor rates with your markup and margin baked in — never generic regional averages that leave money on the table or price you out of the job.
Send a branded proposal in one click, and EstimateBy follows up automatically until the customer views and accepts it online. The estimate that used to sit in your sent folder now closes itself.
Push every completed estimate into Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, QuickBooks or 6,000+ apps via webhook — automatically, the moment it's done. No re-keying line items into another system.
A concrete estimate, start to finish.
Every line pulled off the plans and priced — this is what lands in your dashboard, ready to review and send.
Representative concrete takeoff. Every count and measurement comes straight off the plans.
What the concrete takeoff pulls off your plans
EstimateBy reads your concrete plan set sheet by sheet and takes off foundation slab with vapor barrier and mesh by the square foot, continuous footings by the linear foot, driveway and walk flatwork, and stem walls with forms and rebar. It uses the legend and schedule on each page, measures every area to the square foot, and prices the whole estimate in your own catalog — so a concrete bid that used to take hours is done in minutes, and it's right.
Concrete estimating — questions
It counts and measures directly from the plan sheets using each page's legend and schedule — not a rough guess. On real plan sets it matches a careful hand takeoff, and you review and adjust every line before anything goes to a customer, so you're always in control of the final number.
No. EstimateBy does the slab-and-flatwork takeoff and pricing that you'd otherwise pay a salaried estimator or a $150–$500-per-set service to do — for a flat monthly subscription, in minutes instead of days.
Yes. Add your material costs, labor rates, and markup once in your price book and every estimate comes back in your exact numbers with your margin applied.
Yes — completed estimates push automatically into Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, QuickBooks, and thousands of other tools through webhooks and Zapier, so you're not double-entering anything.
