Measure parking lots, driveways, and roads on the plan or in the field, price base and asphalt from your own rates, and send a clean proposal the same day.
01
Asphalt paving estimating software measures paving areas from plans or field measurements and prices excavation, gravel base, binder, top course, striping, and labor. KonBid gives paving contractors digital takeoff, manual takeoff for site visits, reusable paving assemblies, and branded proposals for a flat $79 per month.
Paving bids are won on speed. A homeowner wants a driveway number this week, and a property manager wants three lot proposals by Friday. KonBid shortens the path from measurement to proposal so you can quote more work without cutting corners on the math.
02
For commercial work, upload the site plan, calibrate the scale, and measure paving areas, curb lengths, and striping. For residential driveways with no drawings, enter field measurements as a manual takeoff. Either way, the square footage flows into the estimate where assemblies price it automatically.
See how measurements become bid quantities in the digital takeoff software, or follow the guide to taking off PDF plans.
03
Build paving assemblies that include excavation or milling, gravel base, binder and top course material, paver and roller time, trucking, and crew labor. Apply them to measured areas and KonBid calculates cost, duration from crew production rates, and markup, so every driveway and lot is priced consistently.
When asphalt prices move, update the rate once in your cost database and every new estimate uses it. The summary shows direct cost, markups, and bid price side by side. Learn more about the construction estimating software.
04
KonBid turns the paving estimate into a branded PDF proposal in minutes, tracks every bid in your pipeline from open to won, and builds change orders from the original bid when the customer adds an apron, extends the lot, or asks for extra sealcoat.
Templates for common jobs, like a residential driveway or a lot overlay, mean most estimates start 80 percent done.

This short walkthrough shows the same workflow asphalt paving contractors use every day in KonBid: upload plans, measure quantities, and send them to a live estimate that prices from your own cost database. Watch it, then try the same steps on your own job with the free trial.
