Metals Estimating Services
EON Estimating began with a clear focus on supporting metal framing contractors, steel erectors, manufacturers, distributors, and fabricators through expert steel consulting services. Over time, we expanded into a full-service pre-construction estimating consultancy. Our experienced team of structural steel estimators and engineers uses proven methods to deliver accurate takeoffs, audit estimates, and help our clients control construction costs.
We provide detailed and accurate estimates for all types of metal components, including decks, trusses, railings, stud framing, joists, gratings, and castings. Every item is clearly described and properly quantified, and each takeoff is double-checked by our senior estimators to maintain high-quality standards. Our strong focus on precision helps reduce material waste, ensures efficient ordering, and supports a greener construction process by minimizing excess materials on-site.
