Estimating & takeoff from drawings

Send the plan set. Get a priced proposal by position, with alternates and unit prices.

01 · The problem

Most plumbing bids are a lump sum and a prayer. When the field quantities change, nobody can say what the change is worth, and the argument eats the margin on both sides.

02 · The system

Every sheet is read: plans, risers, schedules, specs, legends. Fixtures are counted by position, pipe is measured by system and size, equipment is priced from the schedule. The proposal shows the positions, so a change in the field is priced from the same table.

03 · The fix

A written proposal with positions, quantities, alternates (owner-furnished fixtures, for example) and unit prices for additional pipe, connections and drains. Material purchase lists on request.

What is included

  • Quantified takeoff by fixture, system and size
  • Priced proposal with positions and alternates
  • Unit prices for field changes
  • Material purchase lists tied to the positions
  • Takeoff review of a bid you already have
