FAQ

Good questions.

Who uses this service?

Electrical contractors, general contractors and design-build teams.

Do you include lighting controls?

Lighting controls are included where they are in the electrical documents. We state the boundary with low voltage in each estimate.

Can I get quantities only?

Yes. A quantity takeoff carries no unit costs. A priced estimate states the pricing basis: your rates, Hemingway pricing inputs for the project's ZIP code, or an applicable wage determination.

What should I send?

Electrical plans, one-lines, schedules and details, architectural plans, Division 26 specifications and addenda.
