Fast. Defensible.
Built by contractors for the real world.
I help steel and wood framing contractors submit clean, accurate bids when volume spikes and deadlines tighten. No fluff. No guesswork. Just solid estimating.
What I Do
Per-bid estimating support for commercial and large residential steel & wood framing — built to move fast without missing scope.
Overflow Estimating
When bids stack up, I carry the workload so your submissions stay on time and clean.
Scope Clarity
Extract scope from plans, isolate outliers, and keep responsibilities defined.
Defensible Packages
Line items + assumptions/exclusions written to reduce risk and cut rework.
Who This Is For
GritForge supports teams handling multiple bids per week — without hiring full-time.
Steel Fabricators & Erectors
Bid volume grows faster than headcount. I help you keep pace.
Wood Framing Contractors
Clean takeoffs and defensible packages for commercial and large residential bids.
GCs With Structural Scope
Need steel or wood estimates that won't collapse under review or revisions.
Busy Estimators
When the schedule tightens, you need clean support — not added chaos.
How It Works
Simple process. Clear inputs. Clean outputs.
Send plans + due date
You provide plan set, scope expectations, and submission deadline.
I build the bid
Scope extraction, line items, and protections assembled for submission.
You submit

How I work
I use a proprietary bid workflow developed from real projects, real revisions, and real awarded work. You don't need the system — you get the results.
Pricing
Pricing is per bid and based on scope and complexity. You get a clear number up front.
Pay-per-bid
No subscriptions. No long contracts. Use support when you need it.
Defined up front
After scope + timeline review, you get a clean number before work begins.
No surprises
Clear scope coverage, clear deliverables, clear expectations.
