Choose quantity or material takeoffs, labor-hour calculations, a material and labor cost estimate, budget or bid estimating, or recurring outsourced support. The service is tailored to the documents and trade scope you provide.
For projects in Raleigh–Durham, use the local document notes below to prepare your request and identify scope information to clarify before pricing.
Raleigh–Durham · Project Preparation
Durham’s commercial checklist addresses complete submissions for individual buildings on multi-building projects. Raleigh publishes its own nonresidential plot-plan checklist and supporting-document requirements; the two cities have distinct review processes.
For a campus or phased development, label each building, repeated building type and common site package. Repeated geometry does not establish identical finishes or equipment. Send the unit/building matrix and note any mirrored plans or options so quantities can be grouped without duplicating shared utilities and site improvements. Confirm the project’s municipality before applying either city’s checklist to the document request.

Remote Estimating Process
All estimating and quantity takeoff services are provided 100% remotely throughout the United States. We do not perform site visits.
When cost estimating is requested, we use RSMeans Data as one of our primary sources for location-specific material and labor pricing. Inputs are selected for the project’s city/state and adjusted as appropriate for specifications, trade requirements, quantities, construction type and information supplied by the client.
A quantity-only takeoff does not include cost pricing unless it is part of the agreed scope.
Depending on the agreed service and trade, deliverables may include a quantity takeoff / BOQ, material quantities, labor quantities or hours, drawing markups, trade breakdowns, inclusions and exclusions, and assumptions and clarifications. Material and labor costs are included when requested; 3D views are optional where applicable.
Missing or unclear information can be recorded as assumptions and exclusions. We confirm the scope and deliverables from the documents received before work begins.
