Our <br />construction cost estimates are based on costs that our firm has available in a <br />database. This database was created by our office and is updated regularly to <br />reflect the current construction costs of each item on any given project. The <br />database covers everything from manhole rings to large pumps for water and <br />wastewater. We have found that our cost estimates are in -line with the current <br />industry standards, so we are able to give our clients a real anticipated cost of <br />the project. <br />Public Works Permitting and Inspections <br />Calvin, Giordano & Associates, Inc. has the ability to span the entire engineering <br />process from short term to long term planning, through extensive permitting <br />procedures to design and construction.
