I’m a new company owner, been in business over 2 years. I’ve been running equipment for 10 or so years but never got involved in estimating jobs. It seams ponds are one of the hardest projects to bid on. I am always getting overbid or underbid. As everyone knows it is very hard to talk about pricing methods to your local competitors. Maybe this web forum can help me and a lot of guys on pricing ponds and other excavating jobs.
