For a practical example of materials takeoff, explore construction takeoff services to get accurate estimates for your project.
Labor Cost
The ability to control your labor costs is just as important as controlling your material costs. You do not want the subcontractors billing for more than what they installed. We can calculate labor quantities for most construction trades. We will provide you the solid block count for your block masons, the lineal footages and square footages of concrete to pour by your masons, the total boards to hang by your drywall hanger, and the square feet of tile to lay by your tile mason.
Takeoff Format
The takeoff we send you is in Microsoft Excel and will have the item, the quantity, the unit of measure and the location. We organize the takeoff in a number of estimating formats such a CSI, by cost code or construction phase. We can utilize your estimating spreadsheets by inputting the quantities into the correct item codes and cost codes. We can list the items by location as well, which is a built-in audit trail.
Field Audit
We offer track builders building in the Tampa Bay market field audits. After we provide you with a takeoff, we can visit your job site and conduct a material audit. The project estimator will verify the correct items and quantities were delivered. Once your subcontractor has finished, any variances will be recorded by us. We will revise the material list and send it to you. The takeoff will now serve as your base material takeoff. Therefore the next time you build that particular model home, you will have an exact material cost.
