What Our Clients Say

What a construction material take-off includes

A material take-off lists every material needed to build the job, measured from your drawings and grouped so you can price and order it:

  • Concrete and reinforcement: footings, slabs, piers and columns (m³), mesh and bar.
  • Masonry: bricks and blocks by wall type, lintels, ties and mortar.
  • Framing and roofing: timber or steel members, roof cover, sarking, gutters and flashings.
  • Linings and finishes: plasterboard, render, tiling, waterproofing and paint areas.
  • Doors, windows and fixtures: counted from the drawings and schedules.
  • Civil and external works: earthworks volumes, pavements, kerbs, drainage and paving.

Every quantity is marked up on the drawings, so you can see exactly what was measured and check it against revisions.

How a professional take-off saves you money

  • Sharper tenders: accurate quantities let you price competitively without guessing at contingencies.
  • Less waste: order quantities match what is needed, with realistic allowances for cuts and breakages.
  • Fewer missed items: scope gaps between trades are picked up before you price, not on site.
  • More tenders, same team: outsourcing the measurement frees estimators and project managers to price and win work.
  • Easier variations: a traceable take-off makes it simple to show what changed between revisions.
