In this two-part series of Contractor Cuts, the guys dive into the intricacies of the estimating process. With over 16 years of experience running a general contracting company, they share their proven method for creating winning estimates that impress clients and streamline the process for project managers.

In Part 1, we'll cover the critical first steps of the estimating process, starting with the first client contact and the desk estimate. A desk estimate is a preliminary estimate created over the phone by gathering information from the client, such as a list of desired work and relevant pictures. This process not only helps you provide a ball-park estimate that builds trust with the client, but it also allows you to screen potential clients and get a sense of how working with them may go.

Tune in to today's episode of Contractor Cuts to learn how to master the art of desk estimates and make a great first impression with potential clients. Get ready to take your estimating process to the next level!
