About

Our story is as solid as our numbers - come meet us!

Founded in 2024 CORE Estimating started with Sam and Luke spotting a problem. Too many homeowners were jumping into builds without a clear picture of what their project would actually cost and too many were blowing their budgets before the first brick was laid. So we set out to fix that.

What began as a service for homeowners quickly grew into something bigger. Contractors, architects, and developers started coming to us for help with all things pre-construction. Today, we’re here for everyone - bringing clarity, strategy, and accuracy to the front end of every build.

Our Mission

Changing Construction

The construction industry gets a bad rap. I want to change that by giving people accurate costings upfront, with full transparency. This industry is full of brilliant entrepreneurs, and I want to help them all succeed. Our mission is simple: take the guesswork out of construction. By providing clear, accurate, and transparent estimating, we empower builders, architects, homeowners and more to make smarter decisions and deliver projects with confidence.
