Electrical estimating has its own headaches
Pulling wire is not the same as framing a wall. Here is what OneEstimate fixes for electrical contractors.
Copper prices move every week
You bid with last month’s number and your margin disappears. Update the price of copper, wire and conduit once and every estimate recalculates.
Counting devices and fixtures by hand
Counting receptacles, fixtures, switches and outlets on a PDF is slow and error-prone. Measure and count on the plan and the quantities flow into your line items.
Everyone builds their own labor units
Every estimator prices a device or a foot of conduit differently. With standardized, editable assemblies you bid consistently and defensibly every time.
Bids that don’t look professional
A branded PDF with your line items and a per-circuit breakdown wins more work than a thrown-together spreadsheet.
Built for electrical work
Everything an electrical contractor needs to bid fast and win the job.
Ready electrical assemblies
Conduit (EMT/PVC), THHN wire, panels, breakers, fixtures, receptacles and outlets — with material, labor and productivity, fully editable.
On-screen takeoff
Upload the plan as a PDF or image, calibrate the scale once, then measure conduit runs and count devices and fixtures. Every quantity feeds its line item.
Material costs you control
Copper, wire, conduit, devices: update the price in your database and every estimate uses the new value. No more bidding on stale prices.
AI that suggests line items
Describe the scope ("electrical rough-in for a 1,300 sq ft home") and AI proposes the line items and quantities so you start with a draft, not a blank sheet.
Breakdown by circuit or area
Organize the estimate the way you work: by circuit, floor, panel or line item. Total clarity for you and the client.
Export branded PDF & Excel
Send a professional proposal with your logo in one click, or export to Excel when the client asks for it.
From plan to proposal in 4 steps
The same workflow electricians use after leaving the spreadsheet behind.
1. Upload the plan
Load the electrical plan as a PDF or image and calibrate the scale once.
2. Measure & count
Trace conduit runs and count outlets, fixtures and panels directly on the drawing.
3. Build the estimate
Quantities drop into ready assemblies; adjust labor units and copper prices to your reality.
4. Send the proposal
Export a branded PDF with a per-circuit breakdown. Ready to win the bid.
