Our takeoff MEP expert estimators begin with evaluating the project scope and analyze the detailed drawing plans and specifications to intercept and understand the various component involved. After which, we import the drawn plans using the plumbing takeoff software to precisely quantify every single component for labor and material costs. After tackling the on0screen takeoffs, we transfer the quantities to excel spreadsheets and arrange them by Uniformat or the MasterFormat or any customized format given from the client’s side. We utilize a precise cost database and RSMeans to engage current and up to date location-based material costs for the material pricing. We also offer on-demand vendor prices. Labor costs are assessed according to union and current prevalent wages, which includes standard time and overtime. All other factors, like the general conditions, logistics, permits, location, and so forth with other hidden costs, are also considered in our estimations. In the end, a double check is performed by our senior estimators to make sure you are getting the precise estimations, takeoffs and deliverables.
