Good questions.
Who uses this service?
Plumbing contractors, general contractors and design-build teams.
Do you include site utilities?
Underground utilities outside the building are usually site utilities. We state the building boundary 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?
Plumbing plans, risers, schedules and details, architectural plans, Division 22 specifications and addenda.
