Estimate

Quotations, straight from the drawings.

Upload the drawings. Site-Hub reads the equipment, you trace the ducting, every cost lands in its own section — and the quote that goes to your customer comes from one set of figures.

Start with the drawings

The parts, read for you. Checked by you.

Drop in the drawing set and Site-Hub reads the equipment and fittings on each sheet, matching them to your own price list. Every reading is a draft for the estimator to review and correct — the software does the counting, a person makes the call.

Busy drawings are handled too. If a sheet is too big to read in one go you are told so plainly, rather than being handed a half-finished list.

Measure it properly

Trace the ducting. Pin the parts.

Set the drawing's scale, trace each run and Site-Hub works out the length. Pin individual fittings straight onto the plan. Quantities add up across every drawing in the quotation, so a part shown on two sheets is counted once, not lost.

Identical drawings can be grouped under one master and counted ×N, and a drawing that stands for ten identical floors can simply say so — "×10 floors" — with the traced runs and parts multiplied for you.

Every cost, in its own place

Every cost section, with its own markup.

Nothing is blended into a single lump. Each section carries its own cost, its own markup and its own price — and a section you have priced by hand keeps the price you typed.

Materials

Every part read from the drawings, priced from your own catalogue.

Ducting

Traced runs, measured to scale and priced by size.

Hire

Plant and access equipment for the duration.

Site labour

By area or by the day, never both at once.

Duct labour

Per metre of measured ducting.

Second fix labour

Per part, from the supplier's own parts list.

Supplier services

Supplier quotes sold on at your price.

Prelims

Multi-line preliminaries, each with its own markup.

One set of figures

Unknown is never £0.

A missing price, rate or quantity is never quietly counted as nothing. It is left out of the total, marked as pending, and flagged everywhere the figure appears — so an incomplete quote looks incomplete, instead of looking cheap.

The Summary tab, the internal cost report and the customer's quotation all read the same worked-out totals. They cannot disagree, because only one place does the arithmetic.

Supplier quotes

Their wording, your price.

Add a supplier's quote and Site-Hub reads out what it includes, what it excludes, the clarifications and the terms, so they can be carried onto your quotation. The figures are always typed in by you — a supplier's cost and the price you sell it at — never lifted from a document that could be read wrongly.

Second fix work works the same way: the parts are read from the supplier's quote and grouped by size, and you set the labour for each.

Out the door

The right document for the right reader.

The customer's quotation

A clean priced PDF: each section listed and totalled, drawings referenced, inclusions and exclusions set out.

The full cost report

Your internal working — every line, with cost, markup and price per section, and the grand total.

Ducting and parts lists

A ducting report showing which drawing and scale every length came from, plus separate lists of catalogue parts and custom-made parts for ordering.

Joined up

From quote to the sheet on site.

Once the ducting is priced, Duct Measure takes it from the drawing to the fitter's tape measure and on to the supplier's order, all hung off the same quotation.

Prices and quantities are drafts until you say they are final. Site-Hub shows you what it has read and what is still unpriced, and leaves the sign-off with the estimator.
