Designed to make estimating easy for tradies
How does your day usually go? Without a decent plastering quote calculator, we reckon it goes a little bit like this:
Get up, spend a few hours on site installing gyprock and drywall, a quick lunch, a few more hours plastering the walls, and then five hours hunched over plans while you quote on your next job?
That sounds like a decent enough day until you get back to the office. Like tradies all over Australia, you’re spending too long doing takeoffs and estimates. Measuring and calculating areas by hand takes far too long, and it’s cutting into your home life, social life and your work life.
RapidBid’s drywall software and gyprock calculator is a better way to work.
Just click on the link below and we’ll guide you through using our takeoff and estimating software for a bid. It makes it easy for you to choose and sort plans and drawings, makes scaling and measuring a piece of cake, and it can save you up to four hours off every single estimate you work on.

“I have a mate who is an electrical contractor and he was telling me that he spent three weeks pricing a $200,000 job by hand. I told him that with my estimating and PDF take off software, I started a $700,000 job yesterday and finished it today!”
“As much as I would hate to help any of my competitors, I have to completely endorse RapidBid in all that it offers for a business. Our quotation rate has increased from 50 to over 200 quotations per month.”
“RapidBid is a lifesaver. It’s so easy to use, I just open the drawings and within minutes I have scaled, marked and priced up all my materials and labour. It has increased the speed that we can win work four times over, at least.”
“At last, take-offs for the 21st century! After years spent marking up drawings with highlighters and producing takeoff sheets, this is a revolution in estimating. Just can’t live without it – I now takeoff five projects in the time it used to take to do just one.”
“RapidBid easily saves me 90% of my takeoff time, so it’s extremely useful for projects that need a quick turnaround. Brilliant software that is so easy to use.”
“Now, overall from top to bottom, RapidBid’s software saves me about 70% of my time, and that makes an amazing difference. Quotes that took me five days before now take me less than two days, and I’ve only been estimating since January.”
“I work as an estimator Monday-to-Friday, 9-to-5, and your software and support is first class. I can takeoff and price well over 10 drawings in less than an hour, this used to take me half a day before! I just love how simple it is.”
We used to do takeoffs with a scale ruler and a pencil which was very time consuming, and now we have a much quicker takeoff time. We only spend around 1 or 2 hours doing takeoffs with RapidBid’s software and before it used to take us about 5 or 6 hours.
“We used to have a three or four-process estimate which was over-complicated, but now we have a simple, one-process estimate. We definitely recommend!”
“Time saving is the biggest advantage for us by far. RapidBid saved us about 80% of our time and increased our productivity 50%.”
RapidBid’s plasterboard calculator and estimating software is simple, affordable and effective. And it should be, because we’ve spent the best part of thirty years listening to tradies in Australia, Britain and all over the world.
They all say the same thing. “It takes too long to put a bid together and I’d rather be doing something else with my time. Make me something that speeds up the takeoff and estimating part of my job.”
So we did. We built RapidBid. And it works.
We know it works, because we got an independent expert to test it. And he tested it on people who need software tools to be simple. Americans.
Our expert at the University of LA put together a focus group of drywall contractors, electricians, builders and plumbers and they all managed to spend 80% less time on their estimates when they used RapidBid. We then put his findings into our own savings analyser, and you know what? Aussie tradies will save just as much.
That means that you spend four fewer hours in the office with a ruler and a notebook every time you want to bid on a job. And you can spend those hours winning more work, checking in on site, or enjoying a well-deserved night off.
When we say you’ll see everything our software does, that’s a lot to cover, but we’ll do our best. You see a range of our tools – the takeoff software, the gyprock calculator and the drawing review functions.
If you sign up, you’ve got a range of options. You pick the package that suits you from the list on this page and you pay us a monthly fee that works out to a couple of dollars a day. You’d spend that on printing costs if you keep doing your bids by hand.
Here’s what’s included in the full version of our plasterboard calculator for Australian tradies:
That’s got to sound better than yet another night with the highlighter pens and the pencils. Put RapidBid to the test by arranging a demo of our plastering quote calculator and drywall bidding software. You’ll be glad you did.
