What is ESX World?

ESX World provides ready-to-use ESX templates covering the most common restoration and reconstruction scenarios, including fire, smoke and ash damage, roofing, exterior and interior scopes, packout and packback, slab leaks, water mitigation, HVAC systems, and more.

Each ESX file is structured for direct import into Xactimate, allowing you to customize the estimate and create your own Macros based on your preferred workflow.

In addition to template files, ESX World includes pre-built Xactimate Macros for the most frequently used estimating scenarios such as drywall replacement, flood cuts, kitchen rebuilds, flooring, HVAC components, exterior components, framing, fencing, foundation repairs, and other high-use line item groups.
