The estimating problem

The job starts in the field. The estimating work follows you back.

Measurements, gate choices, field photos, customer notes, material needs, and shop requirements often arrive in different places. Turning all of that into an estimate takes time and creates more chances to miss a detail.

Estivelo gives the work a clear path, so the information gathered for a gate job is easier to review and use.

How Estivelo works

From the opening to organized estimate preparation.

Follow the job through one connected workflow while keeping the final judgment with your team.

Example jobSingle swing gate
Organized estimating workflow
01

Job details

Start with the customer, opening, gate type, and the requirements that shape the job.

02

Gate setup

Work through dimensions, frame choices, infill, hardware, and finish in a guided flow.

03

Review & price

Check job information, edit rough materials, and build a clear price for the work.

04

Documents

Create a customer estimate and prepare draft shop documents, with a visualization when useful.

Capabilities

Built around the work between a job visit and the estimate.

01

Guided gate setup

Move through the choices that define the job in a clear, repeatable order.

02

Organized saved jobs

Keep the customer, dimensions, configuration, materials, and pricing together.

03

Material and price review

Review rough materials separately from the quantities and your shop’s prices used to build the estimate.

04

Draft cut information

Review draft material and cut lists for supported flat-top vertical-picket single- and double-swing gates without ornaments.

05

Estimate documents

Issue a customer estimate PDF with a stable record of the issued job details and price.

06

Shop handoff

Export an editable workbook with the reviewed rough materials and selected image when available.

Visualization, when it helps

Give the customer something clear to react to.

A gate concept can make choices easier to discuss before the job moves forward. Estivelo can include a selected concept in the customer document alongside dimensions and job specifications.

Visual concepts support the customer conversation. Draft shop information still requires checks of dimensions, construction, and hardware before building. These materials are not CAD drawings or engineering documents.
