OUR ORIGIN & PHILOSOPHY

Built to Help Drywall Contractors Handle the Peaks of Bidding Season

Kubero Estimating Services was founded to solve a concrete industry problem: giving subcontractors dedicated, trade-specific takeoff support without the heavy overhead of hiring full-time staff.

THE FOUNDER'S PERSPECTIVE

Trade Discipline from Someone Who Knows the Estimating Table

Kubero was founded by David Sandoval, bringing years of direct commercial drywall and framing knowledge to every project submittal. Having worked directly on the bidding side of construction, David understands the late-night stress of 2:00 AM plan takeoffs, the anxiety of uncounted deflection track, and the frustration of missing bid deadlines simply because the in-house team was overwhelmed.

In Texas construction, winning profitable jobs requires two things: bidding enough volume to keep crews working, and having accurate enough numbers so you don't lose money on the jobs you win. Kubero was built to give subcontractors an immediate, dependable capacity boost during heavy bidding cycles.

FOUNDER & LEAD ESTIMATOR

"Our mission is simple: we take the repetitive, time-consuming measuring off your desk so you can focus on building relationships with general contractors, negotiating supplier pricing, and managing your field crews."

Location: Greater Houston, Texas
CLEAR OPERATIONAL BOUNDARIES

What We Are — And What We Are NOT

Kubero is not a generic management consultancy, a sales coaching franchise, or an automated software bot. We do not claim to revolutionize your business model or tell you how to run your company.

We are a technical estimating desk. We measure lines, calculate square footage, verify ceiling grids, and count studs and drywall sheets. We deliver clean, active spreadsheets formatted for your exact workflow.

What the Contractor Controls: Crew production rates, supplier discounts, equipment markup, overhead percentages, and final proposal submitted to the GC.
What Kubero Delivers: Multi-sheet scale calibration, partition linear footage, gross and net square footages, board counts, stud counts, and color-coded PDF markups.
OUR TRADE STANDARDS

The Principles Behind Every Takeoff Package

We operate under the discipline of an internal estimating desk.

Scale Verification

Every architectural drawing sheet is calibrated against known gridlines or dimension strings before measurement. We never assume drawing scales are accurate without verification.

Strict Turnarounds

We commit to delivery dates in writing and deliver before your deadline. If we cannot meet your required bid turnaround due to desk load, we decline the project upfront rather than making empty promises.

Total Confidentiality

All drawings, project names, and subcontractor strategies are kept strictly confidential under non-disclosure practices. We never share bid data between competitors.

Active Formulas

Delivered in unlocked Microsoft Excel workbooks with visible, structured formulas. You can inspect every calculation and adjust factors to match your specific field crews.

LOCAL COMMITMENT

Serving Greater Houston & Texas Subcontractors

While digital estimating allows us to support projects nationwide, our roots and primary focus remain with commercial and residential subcontractors across Greater Houston and Texas: Harris County, Fort Bend, Montgomery, Brazoria, Galveston, and surrounding metro areas.

We understand the local bidding cadence, the standard Houston tenant improvement cycles, and the commercial submittal expectations of regional general contractors.
