Accurate & Detailed Quantity Takeoffs for Construction
At ProEstimatrix, we provide accurate and detailed quantity takeoff services to construction firms, general contractors, and developers throughout the United States. Our team brings more than 15 years of field tested experience in construction estimating, and we support projects with reliable material takeoff quantities, saving time and helping teams prepare well informed bids.
Our quantity takeoff service covers a wide range of residential, commercial, and civil construction projects. Whether the job is a single family home, a mid rise structure, or a multi million dollar infrastructure plan, we understand how critical clear quantity data is for staying within scope and budget. We also help identify potential material gaps early in the planning stage, reducing delays during procurement and keeping bidding accurate from the start. Each takeoff is prepared using digital software, reviewed manually, and formatted clearly so contractors can plug the data directly into their estimates without confusion or rework.
What Is Quantity Takeoff?
Quantity takeoff refers to the process of identifying, measuring, and listing all physical materials required to complete a construction project. This includes concrete, masonry, rebar, drywall, wood, steel, plumbing fixtures, electrical components, and finishes. The material list becomes the foundation for accurate cost estimating and scheduling. In construction, even small quantity errors can affect labor plans and project timelines. This is why takeoff accuracy matters so much. A detailed takeoff allows teams to calculate real costs, reduce overspending, and avoid delays.
Why Quantity Takeoff is Necessary in Construction
Every construction project begins with proper planning. Before any materials are purchased or workers are scheduled, developers and builders need a clear breakdown of the materials involved. Here are facts that show why quantity takeoff services are an essential part of preconstruction:
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, construction material costs rose by 17% from 2020 to 2022. Cost accuracy today matters more than ever.
The Construction Industry Institute states that projects without detailed pre construction planning, including material takeoff, are 30% more likely to face schedule overruns.
Contractors who base their bids on verified quantity data are less likely to encounter unexpected material shortages or reorders during active phases of construction.
Who Needs Quantity Takeoff Services?
Quantity takeoff services are used by a wide range of professionals in the construction industry:
- General Contractors : to create cost estimates and submit accurate bids
- Subcontractors : to focus on trade specific scope like electrical, plumbing, or framing
- Developers : to understand project budgets before design is complete
- Architects and Engineers : to review design feasibility and cost impact
- Construction Managers : to ensure project teams work with clear quantities
Whether your team works on residential buildings or large scale infrastructure, quantity takeoff helps prepare clear and confident cost data for bidding and project planning.
Our Process How Quantity Takeoff is Done
Our Process How Quantity Takeoff is Done
We follow a careful process that helps ensure accuracy in each quantity takeoff we perform:
- Drawing Review
We study architectural, structural, and MEP drawings in PDF or CAD format. Clarifications or revisions are flagged before takeoff begins. - Digital Takeoff
Using industry recognized software like Planswift, Bluebeam, or On Screen Takeoff, we measure and quantify all items directly from the plans. - Material Breakdown
Quantities are categorized by section, unit of measure, and description. These are clearly listed in Excel format for easy use by estimators and project managers. - Quality Check
Each estimate is reviewed for accuracy and consistency. We cross verify quantities with scope descriptions to avoid omissions.
