How We Do Plumbing Take-offs
Our MEP expert estimators begin by evaluating the project scope, analyzing detailed drawing plans and specifications to understand various components involved. Using plumbing take-offs software, we precisely quantify every component for labor and material costs. After on-screen take-offs, we transfer quantities to Excel spreadsheets, arranging them by the Master Format or any customized format provided by the client. We use a precise cost database and RS Means for current and up-to-date location-based material costs. Labor costs are assessed according to union and prevailing wages. Other factors, such as general conditions, logistics, permits, location, and hidden costs, are considered. Senior estimators perform a double check to ensure precise estimations, take-offs, and deliverables.
