Estimating Support.
Built for New Jersey Projects.
Our material takeoff process begins with document review. Architectural, structural, civil, and MEP drawings, elevations, sections, details, schedules, specifications, and addenda are reviewed before scope is defined, materials are measured, and quantities are organized by trade, CSI division, building, floor, area, material, or assembly.
Material Takeoff
Detailed material takeoffs covering concrete, reinforcement, masonry, lumber, wood and metal framing, gypsum board, roofing, insulation, flooring, paint and coatings, structural steel, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, accessories, assemblies, and other measurable construction materials.
- Residential, commercial & multifamily
- Detailed line-item cost breakdowns
- Value engineering recommendations
- CSI-formatted deliverables
Quantity Takeoff
Material takeoffs identify and measure construction materials using the appropriate units, including cubic yards, square feet, linear feet, tons, pounds, individual counts, weights, and assemblies. These quantities can then be reviewed, priced, and used for procurement planning.
- PDF & CAD plan takeoffs
- Earthwork, steel & finishes
- Itemised Excel & PDF reports
- Architect & engineer coordination
Bid Preparation
Material takeoffs keep measured quantities separate from changing supplier prices and contractor-specific business decisions. Contractors can use organized quantities to request supplier quotes, evaluate unit pricing, freight, availability, alternates, quote validity, waste, and procurement requirements.
- MasterFormat CSI reports
- Subcontractor scope drafts
- Addendum monitoring
- Competitive bid strategies
Pre-Construction Estimating
Material takeoffs support bid preparation, supplier quote requests, material budgeting, procurement planning, scope review, subcontractor comparison, addenda, and revisions. When documents change, affected quantities can be updated while unchanged scope remains organized and reviewable.
- Conceptual & schematic estimates
- Cost-per-sqft benchmarking
- Cash flow projections
- Owner's project budgets
Built for the People Pricing the Project.
Whether you need a commercial material takeoff in Newark, quantities for a Jersey City multifamily project, a residential takeoff, renovation quantities, or material calculations for a warehouse elsewhere in New Jersey, detailed quantities provide a stronger basis for supplier pricing, procurement planning, budgeting, and bid preparation.
General Contractors
Material takeoffs built from current architectural, structural, civil, and MEP drawings, specifications, schedules, elevations, sections, details, addenda, and the requested trade or project scope.
Subcontractors
Material takeoffs for concrete, masonry, wood and metal framing, drywall, roofing, flooring, painting, structural steel, insulation, finishes, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and other project-specific material systems.
Developers & Owners
Material takeoff deliverables can include detailed quantities, material summaries, trade breakdowns, CSI division organization, editable spreadsheets, PDF reports, marked-up drawings, measurement backup, assumptions, and revision support.
Architects & Designers
Organized material quantities give contractors a reviewable basis for supplier quote requests, purchasing, delivery sequencing, material releases, supplier coordination, storage planning, bid preparation, scope review, and subcontractor comparison.
