before you put the kettle on.

PDEstimates turns a plain-English job description into a full materials-and-labour estimate, priced for your region, in seconds — not the hour-plus it usually takes to price a job by hand.

How it works

Three steps. No spreadsheets.

The whole point is that this doesn't feel like software you have to learn — it feels like texting someone who already knows construction pricing.

01
Describe the job, your way
Type it like you'd explain it to a client — dimensions, scope, anything relevant. Attach a few site photos if you've got them; PDEstimates factors in access and visible conditions automatically.
02
Get a full breakdown, instantly
Materials, quantities, and current regional pricing — plus labour hours based on your actual crew size, not a generic guess.
03
Edit, brand, and send
Adjust any line, hide what your client doesn't need to see, and export a clean PDF with your own logo on it — or email it straight from the app.
What's actually in it

Built for the job, not the demo.

📍

Regional pricing

Materials and labour priced for your actual market, not a national average.

📷

Photo-aware estimates

Upload site photos — access, condition, and visible issues factor into the price automatically.

✏️

Fully editable

Every line is yours to adjust. Nothing is locked, nothing is a black box.

🧾

Branded PDF export

On Lite and Pro, your logo and letterhead replace PDEstimates branding — a document you'd actually hand to a client.

👷

Real crew-size timelines

Duration estimates that account for how many people are actually on site.

Your own material library

Save prices you trust once, reuse them on every future estimate.

Why we built this

Every estimate starts the same way — digging through supplier sites, doing labour math in your head, hoping you didn't leave money on the table. That's hours you're not getting paid for, on every single job.

PDEstimates exists to give that time back — so you're spending it on the job, not behind a screen pricing one.
