CSI Division 32 (Landscape & Irrigation)
Hire a dedicated remote Landscape & Irrigation estimator — full-time, part-time, or project-based. CSI Division 32 openings Landscape
Landscape and irrigation scope spans planting schedules, hardscape quantities, and system design — all areas where small measurement errors add up fast across a large site. ABLE Estimating gives you dedicated remote estimators who handle planting, hardscape, and irrigation takeoffs with genuine attention to how these systems actually go together in the field.

Full-Time Remote Estimator
A dedicated Landscape estimator working exclusively for your company, full workweek, every week. Ideal for busy landscape contractors bidding consistently on commercial and residential Landscape & Irrigation jobs who want one person who learns your standards and software over time.
Part-Time Remote Estimator
A dedicated Landscape estimator for a set number of hours or days per week — perfect if your steel bid volume doesn't justify a full-time hire yet, but you need more consistent support than one-off Landscape & Irrigation takeoffs.
Project-Based Remote Estimator
Not ready to commit to a dedicated hire? Send us a single set of Landscape & Irrigation plans and get a takeoff back — no onboarding, no long-term commitment. Many landscape contractors start with a project or two before moving to part-time or full-time estimator.

Frequently asked questions
A full-time estimator works exclusively for you, every workweek. Part-time gives you dedicated hours or days per week. Project-based means you send one set of plans and pay per takeoff, with no ongoing commitment.
Yes — many contractors start with a project or two to see our accuracy and turnaround firsthand, then move to part-time or full-time support once they’re ready for ongoing help.
We work with you to address it directly, and if needed, we’ll find a better match at no disruption to your work. Our goal is a long-term fit, not a one-time placement.
Whatever works best for your team — email, phone, Slack, google meet or Zoom. Full-time and part-time estimators integrate into your existing workflow and tools.
Our remote landscape estimator provides zone calculations and coverage details alongside fixture counts, so your irrigation bid reflects actual system design, not just a parts list.
Our landscape estimator breaks out planting and hardscape separately in the takeoff, since they are typically priced, ordered, and installed by different crews.
