Construction Estimating & Takeoff Services

The right estimating deliverable depends on what you need to decide. Use a takeoff to price known quantities, a bid estimate to price defined work, or a preliminary budget to compare design options.

Early budgets should keep allowances visible.

By project type

Start with the project and then identify which bid packages you want estimated.

Residential Construction Estimating

Prepare a budget or bid for a new home, addition or remodel with the structural shell, interior finishes and owner selections visible as separate decisions.

Industrial Construction Estimating

Build a cost plan for a plant modification, warehouse system or equipment installation with the installation sequence and owner-furnished scope visible.

Data Center Construction Estimating

Organize a data center budget or bid around the power, cooling, architectural and commissioning packages that support the facility’s required capacity.

Structure a healthcare estimate around room types, infrastructure and phasing so the team can price occupied work and specialty requirements separately.
