Capitalize On Your Experience!

MACC Estimating Group offers an entrepreneurial opportunity for leaders in the construction industry to breakout on their own, become their own boss, and grow their own business by becoming an independent estimator with our group.

We Help Architects

We are more than estimators, we are former contractors helping architects get what they want for, from, in, or out of their projects.  We do that by bringing decades of construction experience, an intimate knowledge of general contracting, and a desire to produce a better outcome for architects during the design phase.

"I used to lead 175 employees and spend 12+ hours a day and most Saturdays at the office. Now I have a business with no employees, and I work from home with time for other things, and keep almost everything I make." - Jim Paras, Founder of MACC Estimating
