Our software is currently one of the best-kept secrets in the plumbing trade. Estimating doesn’t have to be a lengthy, costly process when you know how to do it the smart way.
Starting from the very beginning of the task, every step is made easier and more profitable with RapidBid.
“I have a mate who is an electrical contractor and he was telling me that he spent three weeks pricing a $200,000 job by hand. I told him that with my estimating and PDF take off software, I started a $700,000 job yesterday and finished it today!”

“As much as I would hate to help any of my competitors, I have to completely endorse RapidBid in all that it offers for a business. Our quotation rate has increased from 50 to over 200 quotations per month.”

“RapidBid is a lifesaver. It’s so easy to use, I just open the drawings and within minutes I have scaled, marked and priced up all my materials and labour. It has increased the speed that we can win work four times over, at least.”
AL Contract Services
“At last, take-offs for the 21st century! After years spent marking up drawings with highlighters and producing takeoff sheets, this is a revolution in estimating. Just can’t live without it – I now takeoff five projects in the time it used to take to do just one.”
MJL Contracts
“Now, overall from top to bottom, RapidBid’s software saves me about 70% of my time, and that makes an amazing difference. Quotes that took me five days before now take me less than two days, and I’ve only been estimating since January.”
JKM Contracts
“I work as an estimator Monday-to-Friday, 9-to-5, and your software and support is first class. I can takeoff and price well over 10 drawings in less than an hour, this used to take me half a day before! I just love how simple it is.”
Wiltons
We used to do takeoffs with a scale ruler and a pencil which was very time consuming, and now we have a much quicker takeoff time. We only spend around 1 or 2 hours doing takeoffs with RapidBid’s software and before it used to take us about 5 or 6 hours.
AG Contracting
“We used to have a three or four-process estimate which was over-complicated, but now we have a simple, one-process estimate. We definitely recommend!”
Pure Services Group
“Time saving is the biggest advantage for us by far. RapidBid saved us about 80% of our time and increased our productivity 50%.”
Environ Group
“Our monthly quotation output has increased from 60 to in excess of 180 quotations per month. That is a staggering 300% increase.”

We’ve been working with a wide range of contractors for years; not only plumbers, but people in almost every trade. What we’ve learned from their experience, and our own, is that one thing consistently poses a challenge for these kinds of businesses.
Simply put, wasting time is the enemy when it comes to making a profit. You’re only going to make a certain amount of money when you take on a new job, so all the time you have to spend planning the project and doing the work cuts directly into the profit you ultimately make.
That’s where many plumbers get stuck. If you’re dealing with complex drawings, trying to review them and count up everything that’s relevant to you, then put together a competitive quote before your potential customer’s deadline… that’s a lot of work. How can you possibly do it faster?
The secret is not to work harder, but to use a smarter method. That wasn’t necessarily possible before RapidBid, but we designed every aspect of our program to make your life easier. Now, it’s easy to achieve what you need to in much less time.
It’s very easy to get started with RapidBid. We highly recommend booking your free software demonstration, which is where we usually start. It’s the best way to get an overview of what the program feels like and what it can do. You can find out more below!
Following an initial introduction by our team, you’ll find the on-screen tools and options in RapidBid are very intuitive. We’ve been able to create this smart workflow based on our years of experience working with contractors who do takeoffs and estimates every day.
For example, you can open drawings in just a few clicks (and easily preview them to make sure they’re the ones you really need in practically no time). Next, it’s time to start your take-off with a range of colour-coded, easy-to-use tools available at the click of a mouse.
Doing everything from taking measurements to showing or hiding layers just by clicking on your computer screen makes the whole process much less painful. Before you know it, you’ll have everything you need to generate estimates much faster, which will help keep your clients happy and bring in more work for your business.
The best way to see it for yourself… is to see it for yourself. Countless plumbers and other contractors are using it right now to get ahead, and you could do the same.
To get started, just click the button to request your demo. You’ll get a choice of available times and dates so you can choose one that works for you, and our team will be in touch to explain the software, answer your questions and offer guidance based on your business.
