Quantities in the units utilities are priced in.

- Trenching: cubic yards by depth range
- Fittings and valves: count by size
- Connections: count by type
- Labor and equipment: hours by crew

Good questions.
Who uses this service?
Underground utility contractors, general contractors and developers.
Do you include dry utilities?
Dry utilities are typically by the utility owner. We note coordination and any conduit or trench scope that falls to the contractor.
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?
Civil utility plans and profiles, details, geotechnical report if available, Division 33 specifications and addenda.
