Material and Quantity Takeoff

Maximize your project’s efficiency and accuracy with our tailored Material Takeoff services. Whether you require detailed analysis from traditional plans or advanced digital models, we offer comprehensive solutions to suit any project’s needs.

Consult the Construction Documents

We begin every material takeoff by meticulously reviewing the construction documents. This essential step ensures we fully understand the project's specifications and design intentions, setting a precise foundation for the entire takeoff process.

Itemize the Necessary Materials

After reviewing the documents, our team itemizes all required materials, categorizing them by type, size, and use. This structured approach ensures thoroughness and facilitates efficient procurement and project management.

Count or Calculate Quantities

The final step involves accurately counting or calculating the needed quantities for each itemized material. Using advanced software and methodologies, we provide detailed takeoff sheets that help streamline budgeting and purchasing for the project.

Construction material takeoff vs. estimate

When people refer to takeoff, they’re usually talking specifically about coming up with a quantity of materials required for a project—that’s why this process is frequently called a “quantity takeoff” or a “material takeoff.” On the other hand, a construction estimate  uses the quantities from the takeoff as well as current  material prices  to determine the total cost for the required materials.

Some people use the word takeoff to mean the entire process of building an estimate, but generally you can think of this as two separate processes:

  • First, estimators perform a material takeoff to get an accurate list of the exact items and quantities needed for a project.
  • Second, estimators build an estimate by determining current materials pricing as well as calculating other costs, like labor, equipment, or travel.
