Click hereWhy Is Material Takeoff Important?
Material takeoff is important when trying to forecast the financial commitment of the construction project. It’s one of the ways you begin to develop a realistic construction project budget. That’s only one way that contractors use material takeoff.
Another way to use material takeoff is when submitting a bid. When you submit a bid for a job, it’s critical to know the costs of the materials you’ll need. Without an accurate estimate of your material costs, you could underbid or overbid for the job. If you get it, you’re going to lose money or won’t make as much profit as you should.
While creating an accurate construction estimate or bid is important, there’s also the simple fact that you need to know how many materials to buy for the project. If you don’t, it’s likely that you’ll underbuy, leading to extra costs and schedule delays, neither of which is advisable. On the opposite end of the spectrum, you could overbuy which cuts into your profits.

Construction Material Takeoff vs Estimate
When people refer to takeoff, they’re usually talking specifically about coming up with a quantity of materials required for a project—that’s why this process is frequently called a “quantity takeoff” or a “material takeoff.” On the other hand, an estimate uses the quantities from the takeoff as well as current material prices to determine the total cost for the required materials.
Some people use the word takeoff to mean the entire process of building an estimate, but generally you can think of this as two separate processes:
- First, estimators perform a material takeoff to get an accurate list of the exact items and quantities needed for a project.
- Second, estimators build an estimate by determining current materials pricing as well as calculating other costs, like labor, equipment, or travel.
While these two processes are closely related, ultimately the most important goal of a takeoff is simply to ensure an accurate count of materials.
That said, the takeoff process has become more closely tied to the estimating process due to the widespread use of takeoff software.
Types of Construction Takeoff
Construction takeoffs vary depending on the type of construction project.
Subcontractors, such as electricians and plumbers, will produce a different construction takeoff than a general contractor.
However, while these two takeoffs may look different, they follow the same fundamental process.
Aside from these differences, there are generally two types of construction takeoffs; manual and digital.
