The iLumber Difference
Here's exactly what you get when you partner with iLumber — and why it matters for your bottom line.
48-Hour Turnaround
Speed is currency in the lumber business. iLumber delivers most estimates within 24–48 hours, so you can submit competitive bids before your rivals even start theirs. Rush delivery available for time-sensitive projects.
Industry-Certified Experts
Every estimator is professionally certified and has a minimum of 10 years of hands-on production experience. We hire people who have actually built and estimated lumber — not just people who studied it.
Lower Cost Than In-House
Hiring a full-time senior estimator costs $80K–$120K per year in salary alone. iLumber gives you the same expertise on demand, without benefits, training, software licenses, or downtime costs.
Around-the-Clock Capacity
Our distributed team works across time zones so your project progresses even after your office closes. Wake up to completed estimates instead of waiting through another business day.
Any Platform, Any Format
MiTek, Alpine, Sapphire, Wolf, Planswift — we work in whatever software your production line requires. No conversion, no reformatting, just files that drop straight into your workflow.
Revisions Always Included
Plans change. Architects revise. Engineers update loads. iLumber includes unlimited revisions so a plan change never triggers a new invoice — your engagement covers the project, not the version number.
