OUR APPROACH TO PLUMBING ESTIMATING
To break down the many components involved, our MEP estimators first assess the project scope and examine the drawing plans and requirements.
Next, we use the plumbing takeoff program to import the drawing drawings and calculate the costs of materials and labor for each component.
We export the amounts to Excel spreadsheets following the on-screen takeoff and arrange them according to MasterFormat, Uniformat, or your preferred format.
We apply location-based and current material costs for material pricing by utilizing RSMeans and our precise cost database. Pricing for on-demand vendors is also offered.
The assessment of labor expenses takes into account ordinary time and overtime pay as well as union and prevailing salaries.
Every aspect is considered, including general conditions, permissions, logistics, location, and other unstated expenses
