Construction estimating and quantity takeoff services
Outsourced estimating from a remote team of construction estimators — quantity takeoff services, cost estimating and tender pricing — by trade or by whole project, wherever you build. Priced per job, delivered on a date agreed in writing.
Pr3cise provides construction estimating and quantity takeoff services to general contractors, subcontractors, developers and architects. A client sends the drawings, specifications and addenda; a construction estimator measures the work, prices it and returns a line-item estimate or a bill of quantities in Excel and PDF, with colour-coded takeoff markups, normally within 24 to 72 hours of a complete document set. The fee is fixed per project and agreed in writing before any work starts. Pr3cise is a remote office — Clear Ascend OÜ, registered in Estonia — with no premises in the United States and no site visits: every job travels as a file, in English or Spanish.
Quantity takeoff services
Measured quantities from your drawings, organized by CSI division or your own format, with color-coded markups. The foundation every other number rests on. Construction takeoff services, in detail.
Cost estimating
Takeoff quantities priced by a cost estimator against current regional material and labor rates, including equipment, overhead, profit and waste factors — not a national average applied to your job.
Conceptual and budget estimating
Early-stage numbers for feasibility and lender packages — the cost plan or pre-tender estimate stage — built from square-foot or square-metre rates and assembly pricing when drawings are still developing.
MEP estimating
Mechanical, electrical and plumbing priced as a package or by trade. Our electrical estimating services run from the service entrance to the devices; our plumbing and piping estimating services cover domestic water, waste, storm, gas and process pipe measured by diameter and material — plus fire protection and low-voltage.
Structural and civil
Concrete, masonry, structural steel, earthwork and sitework, with formwork and rebar broken out rather than buried in an allowance.
Finishes and specialty trades
Drywall, framing, roofing, flooring, painting, glazing and millwork — quantified to the assembly, not estimated by floor area.
What is in every estimate Pr3cise delivers
- Line-item breakdown by CSI MasterFormat division — or the classification your market works with — so it drops straight into your bid form or accounting system.
- Material, labor and equipment separated on every line, with labor hours and crew rates visible rather than rolled into a lump sum.
- Waste factors priced per material — tile, aggregate and steel do not waste at the same rate, and pretending they do costs money on procurement.
- Overhead and profit broken out as their own lines, adjustable to your numbers, so your margin survives a bid review.
- Color-coded takeoff markups showing where each quantity came from, so any line can be audited in seconds.
- A written scope and exclusions list — what we included, what we did not, and what the drawings left ambiguous.
- One revision round included, for addenda, spec changes or price updates.
Where we work
Pr3cise is a remote estimating office — Clear Ascend OÜ, registered in Estonia — with no branch you need to drive to. This is how an outsourced estimating team works alongside your own office. Every job travels as a file: you send drawings and specs, a construction estimator measures and prices them, and the estimate comes back in the format and against the code of the market the project is actually built in. We work in English and Spanish.
- United States — line items by CSI MasterFormat division, priced with regional material and labor data. Miami-Dade and South Florida is our main US market, where the Florida Building Code, the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules and Notice of Acceptance product approvals are priced in from the start rather than added later.
- United Kingdom and Ireland — bills of quantities and pre-tender cost plans in the structure the tender documents ask for, ready to submit rather than ready to retype.
- Spain and Spanish-speaking markets — mediciones y presupuestos in Spanish, delivered in BC3 as well as Excel and PDF, coded against CTE, REBT and RSCIEI when the project calls for it.
- United Arab Emirates, the Gulf and the rest of Europe — BoQ-based tender pricing for Gulf work and Eurocodes with their national annexes across the EU. Metric or imperial, in euros, pounds, dollars or dirhams.
If you searched for construction takeoff services near me, the honest answer is that proximity buys you nothing here: nobody has to stand on the site to measure a drawing. What does buy you something is a working day that starts about seven hours before the US East Coast, so drawings sent at the end of yours are measured overnight.
