COMMERCIAL CONTRACTORS
I AM Builders is a licensed General Contractor specializing in estimating and consulting for our clients. Our construction estimating services division brings you the power of a large estimating department without the large overhead.
Most Commercial Contractors spend tons of time running their jobsites and don’t spend enough time estimating projects. We help you streamline the process and submit your bids so you don’t miss out on great potential projects.
ACCURATE COMMERCIAL BIDS
The biggest challenge contractors have is preparing accurate bids with minimal amount of time. You’re busy…
Our team is a licensed General Contractor and works nationwide on projects.
We prepare bids and estimates based on the zip code of the project. We save you countless hours of time preparing bids and prepare all of your project takeoffs for you.
No more nights and weekends.
PRE-CONSTRUCTION FINAL ESTIMATES
Once you’ve finalized your construction drawings, you’ll soon start receiving bids from GCs or Subcontractors. How do you know their pricing is at market value?
Better yet, how can you negotiate down those prices?
Our commercial pre-construction estimates are an invaluable tool that’ll show you where pricing should be at so you can negotiate and compare pricing.
It’ll also let you know if you need to redesign certain aspects of your project before it’s too late.
COMMERCIAL DEVELOPERS
When working on larger projects or obtaining financing from lenders or investors, it’s critical to have accurate cost estimates.
COMMERCIAL PRELIMINARY
COST ESTIMATES
Commercial Developers are in a unique position where they need to determine sometimes before plans are even produced or finalized. That’s where we come in.
Because we’ve estimated more than $1.5 Billion in projects for our clients, we have the expertise and historical data to prepare preliminary pricing very early on in the planning.
PRE-CONSTRUCTION FINAL
ESTIMATES AND BUDGETS

Our commercial pre-construction estimates are an invaluable tool that’ll show you where pricing should be at so you can negotiate and compare pricing. It’ll also let you know if you need to redesign certain aspects of your project before it’s too late.
COMMERCIAL ARCHITECTS & DESIGNERS
When working on larger projects or obtaining financing from lenders or investors, it’s critical to have accurate cost estimates.
SCHEMATIC DESIGN ESTIMATES
We work directly with architects and designers to prepare estimates throughout the early, middle, and final stages of the design.
This avoid significant rework as an architect. No more revising drawings because of being over-budget.
BUDGET CREATION
When working with Owners, it’s helpful to prepare realistic budgets, especially in the final stages when transitioning into the CA (Construction Administration) phase.
We can help you prepare these budgets to hold your contractors accountable.
VALUE ENGINEERING
Most commercial projects end up in value engineering.
It’s a Catch 22 – you want to design spectacular spaces, but that often results in need to go back and reduce costs on projects. We can help you do that.
“Most contractors are missing out on over $200,000 per month in project contracts and they don’t even know it. They are busy, have no time for estimating, and they are leaving money on the table. A lot of money.
We designed our construction estimating service with the goal of helping our clients win projects and ultimately be successful.”

Founder, I AM Builders
WHO IS I AM BUILDERS?
I AM Builders is a National Construction Estimating Firm in the business of helping contractors win projects.
With our construction lead generation services, we’ll find new leads personalized for your business.
Most contractors are so busy running their jobsites that they NEGLECT their bidding. You’re supervising jobs, making deliveries, going to jobsite meetings, and the only time to work on bidding is NIGHTS AND WEEKENDS.
It doesn’t have to be that way!
HOW CAN WE HELP YOU WIN MORE PROJECTS?
“I have NO TIME to estimate projects”
-Every Contractor in America
The enemy of every contractor is the lack of time. Most contractors are busy working IN the business rather than working ON the business. If that’s the case, you’re not alone. We’ve worked with over 1,400 contractors nationwide estimating and consulting, and that’s normal.
But you’ve probably tried doing it yourself, working at night after work…. probably even on the weekends on the kitchen table. We’ll find your leads for you and can even takeoff your complete construction project after so you can focus on running your business and getting your nights and weekends back.
Stop missing out on bids because of time.
You’re probably MISSING OUT on $200,000 per month because you’re busy

We can help you NEGOTIATE AND CLOSE based on proven strategies
Estimating is only a small part of what it takes to win a job. We like to see this as a TEAM EFFORT.
What do you do after the estimate to give yourself the best chance of winning? We can help you work the numbers when you’re negotiating, and even jump on a conference call with your client (as your estimating team) to help you close.
We can even advise you on EXACTLY WHAT TO DO to have them wanting to USE YOU instead of your competitor.
Over the last 10 years, and after speaking and working with THOUSANDS of Contractors, we get to see what WORKS and what DOESN’T. We have some clients landing 50% of their bids by implementing some of the strategies we can easily show you.
These aren’t strategies we made up – we listened to our clients and created our blueprint based on what they are doing right, and avoiding what they were doing wrong. Best of all….. it works for ANY CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS.
AND IF YOU’RE SERIOUS ABOUT GROWING YOUR BUSINESS, WE CAN HELP YOU ESTIMATE THE JOB AND CLOSE MORE SALES
After working on the estimating side of things, we help many of our clients get more leads so they can keep growing their business.
