ProBuilder Tutorial Videos
the fastest way for UK builders to create accurate, complete, and professional estimates in under 30 minutes.
Welcome to ProBuilder AI — the fastest way for UK builders to create accurate, complete, and professional estimates in under 30 minutes.
This page will walk you through the simple setup steps and show you how to get the most out of the platform. Whether you’re pricing a kitchen renovation, an extension, or a full refurb, ProBuilder AI is built to think like a builder — helping you capture every line item, avoid missing costs, and produce quotes you can stand behind.
From setting up your labour rates to generating your first AI-powered estimate, you’ll see just how quickly the system works to deliver reliable, job-ready pricing.
Setting up your account
Setting up your account is quick and straightforward, and there are two key areas to get sorted before you start building estimates.
1. Labour Rates
Your labour rates are the backbone of every estimate you create. The system uses these figures to calculate the true cost of the work, trade by trade, across any project.
Setting these up properly means:
Your pricing is consistent every time
Estimates reflect the real cost of running your team
You avoid under-pricing work without noticing
Once your rates are saved, the system automatically applies them to any estimate you build, so you’re not entering the same figures over and over again.
2. Business Information
Next, head into the My Business area. This is where you add your company details, logo, and any branding you want to appear on your paperwork.
Updating this section ensures:
Every quote, invoice, and document looks professional
Your branding is consistent across the board
You can export polished, client-ready PDFs with no extra editing
With these two areas complete, you’re ready to start creating accurate, professional-looking estimates in minutes.
Creating an Estimate with ProBuilder
Creating an estimate with ProBuilder AI is as simple as having a conversation with a Quantity Surveyor.
The AI works much like ChatGPT, but tuned specifically for construction work. All you need to do is open the chat box and describe the project you’re pricing.
The more detail you provide, the more accurate your estimate will be. Try to include things such as:
Type of job (kitchen renovation, loft conversion, extension, etc.)
Location (costs vary across the UK)
Budget if you have one
Room details or specifications — size, condition, materials you’re planning to use
Any extras or constraints you think are relevant
Once you’ve described the project, simply click Create Quote.
ProBuilder AI will start by generating a clear project scope, outlining all the work involved. After that, it builds your full estimate, complete with labour, materials, and a breakdown by trade.
In just a few moments, you’ll have a detailed, professional estimate ready to review, refine, and share with your client.
Building your estimate
Once ProBuilder AI has generated your estimate, you’ll be taken straight into the Estimate Builder.
This is where you can review every part of the quote and make any adjustments you need.
Inside the builder, you can:
View all line items created by the AI
Edit quantities, descriptions, and rates to match your exact approach
Add or remove items if you want to tailor the estimate further
Manage each trade and see where your costs are coming from
Keep everything organised as you refine the quote for your client
This workspace gives you full control. The AI gets you 90% of the way there, and the Estimate Builder lets you fine-tune the final 10% so the quote reflects your pricing, your methods, and your standards.
Using ProBuilder AI to enhance your estimate
ProBuilder AI is designed to help you produce the most accurate estimate possible — quickly and confidently.
As you work, the system continually scans your estimate in the background. It checks your pricing against current market rates, industry standards, and typical project requirements.
This means ProBuilder AI can:
Highlight anything that looks under-priced or inconsistent
Flag missing items that are normally required for the type of job you’re quoting
Suggest additions or adjustments to ensure nothing critical is overlooked
By combining your expertise with real-time analysis, the platform helps you avoid costly mistakes and ensures your estimate is fully aligned with how UK projects are actually delivered.
The result?
You can build a reliable, professional estimate in under 30 minutes, with confidence that the numbers stack up and nothing essential has been missed.
