Information
At Estimate With Abhi, we’re passionate about helping people build real estimating skills that lead to real jobs. Based in Sydney, Australia, we focus on teaching how estimating is done in the local construction industry — from trade pricing to tender submissions. Our practical, hands-on approach ensures you’re not just learning, but actually doing.
Our courses
We offer a range of courses designed to equip you with the skills you need to excel in the world of estimating. From beginner basics to advanced techniques, our courses are tailored to help you confidently tackle any project.
Basic estimating
Learn how to read drawings, measure quantities, and understand the tendering process used in Australian construction. Perfect for beginners or migrants wanting to start their career as an estimator.
Professional estimating
This course is designed for those already working in the construction industry — whether you’re a site supervisor, engineer, or contracts administrator — who want to transition into a builder or estimator role.
You’ll learn how to manage trade packages, assess subcontractor quotes, prepare tender submissions, and apply advanced estimating techniques used by Australian builders.
Perfect for junior estimators who want to develop senior-level estimating knowledge and confidence.
Business estimating
This course is designed for experienced estimators or construction professionals who want to move into senior, leadership, or preconstruction management roles. You’ll learn how to price tenders strategically, apply profit margins, analyse risks, and prepare winning submissions that align with a builder’s commercial goals.
We’ll also cover client communication, value engineering, and tender presentation skills — the key elements that separate good estimators from great ones.
Perfect for those ready to grow beyond technical estimating and into business and management-level estimating.
