Quantity takeoff services for contractors
A quantity takeoff organizes the materials and measured work in a defined construction scope. Plan to Price provides remote takeoff services for contractors across the United States, helping you prepare purchasing lists, request supplier pricing and build your own estimates.

Depending on your project, a takeoff may list areas in square feet, lengths in linear feet, volumes or item counts. We identify units and selected waste factors so net measured quantities are distinguishable from purchasing allowances. The agreed deliverable can be provided in Excel and PDF, organized by trade or work area.
Define the boundaries before measuring
Tell us which floors, rooms, trades and alternates belong in the takeoff. Drawings sometimes show existing work alongside new work, and schedules can differ from plan notes. We flag unclear scope, missing dimensions and items that need confirmation rather than silently treating them as settled quantities.
From takeoff to purchasing or estimating
Use the quantities to compare supplier quotes or apply your own labor and material costs. Before ordering, confirm product sizes, packaging, installation requirements and field conditions. A takeoff based on supplied documents does not replace field verification. If you want labor and material pricing added, select our construction estimating service.

Frequently asked questions
Does a takeoff include material prices?
Our quantity takeoff scope is quantities only. Cost estimating is a separate service that can be included in a custom quote when requested.
What if the drawings are incomplete?
We identify the missing information and confirm whether a limited takeoff can proceed with documented assumptions. We may need clearer drawings or measurements before accepting the assignment.
Can you measure a single trade?
Yes. Tell us the specific trade and areas to include. We will review the documents and confirm the scope, deliverables and fee in writing.
Start with your project details.
We review the information, confirm the deliverables and send a written service quote. Your fee and delivery schedule are agreed before work begins. No payment is collected through the inquiry form.
