Estimating support

Clearer numbers before you quote.

Use RBN estimating support to check the job, understand the likely cost and quote with fewer unknowns.

Service

Choose the estimate that matches the decision.

RBN estimating support helps members move from rough job information to a clearer estimating request. The right level depends on whether you are qualifying a lead, checking a budget or preparing a more detailed quote.

$450

Quick estimate

A basic cost breakdown used to qualify a project before committing to a full estimate.

$990

Single storey

A more detailed line-by-line estimate for single-level residential builds.

$1,390

Double storey

A detailed estimate for multi-level residential builds.

By quote

Multi-unit

Scoped separately for developers and multi-unit residential projects.

Why it matters

A quote is only as good as the prices behind it.

Rates move, supplier pricing changes and old allowances can make a quote look better than it really is. RBN keeps close to current industry pricing and supplier context across the network, so members are not pricing from stale assumptions when margin is on the line.

Good fit when

Checking whether a client budget is realistic
Preparing a stronger number before quoting
Getting a clearer view of material and trade allowances

Service support proof

"I was looking for competitive pricing and that's where RBN really played a good role for me."

Rob Ventra, Tempo Built

Pricing confidence is stronger when the request starts with current supplier context, not last year's assumptions.

What to send

Give RBN the detail that changes the answer.

The request does not need to be perfect. It does need enough project context for RBN to understand the next useful step.

Good to know

Estimating scope and package fit are confirmed before work starts.

  1. 1 Plans, specifications and engineering where available
  2. 2 Client budget or target range if one has been discussed
  3. 3 Known inclusions, exclusions and material preferences
  4. 4 Timing, suburb and any site constraints already known

Ready when you are

Start the request from the member workspace.

Members can send job details, plans and files through the portal so RBN can work from the same context.
