"I approached The Estimating Group Ltd. to price a couple of tenders for which I am pleased to say their pricing has won me the contract and the surveying work for the projects. The work was turned around very quickly and broken down well for ease of checking for me and the main contractor. Profits, materials and labour were also given in accompanying documentation along with the rates and quantities. Excellent service and we will definitely be using them again."
