    Residential Takeoff Services

    Managing residential projects has become a great challenge in the USA because as per some reports, there has been a 40%  increase in material costs since 2020 and over 80% of contractors struggle with workforce shortages. This affects contractors badly and calls for accuracy in residential estimating services to win bids.

    Kelly Estimating is #1 in the USA for delivering accurate residential project estimates because we ensure realistic budget expectations, and use methods like per-square-foot analysis and technology-integrated projections. Partner with us and rely on our expertise, proven by our contributions to landmark residential projects across the USA.

    Serving Developers & Contractors With Precise Residential Estimating Services

    For residential projects, to stay on budget, for accurate financial planning, and to meet design expectations, every contractor, developer, and architect needs a certain type of residential cost estimation! We provide everything under one roof:


    For project feasibility and budget analysis, you need conceptual estimates. Our residential estimators provide early-stage cost predictions based on project scope and conceptual designs. The team presents a solid financial foundation for single-family, multi-family, or luxury home developments.


    Get this estimate when your design is partially complete. We calculate material and labor costs for substructures, superstructures, finishes, and services. Our breakdowns display all the hidden costs and probable issues and guide you to make informed decisions from the project beginning through design reevaluation.


    Before construction begins, and after getting the design plans, we review contractor bids and ensure they align with current market pricing. In this, we verify the costs of material and labor, assess bid compliance with project specifications, and find any difference. It helps you developers to negotiate with contractors.


    USA construction projects experienced almost 35% modifications in plans. Our residential cost estimates evaluate the impact of design changes, scope adjustments, or unexpected conditions on materials, labor, and timelines. Then they quickly update changes by changes by type and format, and hand over complete documentation to you.


    We offer residential bid estimates that calculate sq footage, material quantities, and labor costs by Xactimate, BlueBeam, RS Means, and Planswift. Almost 80% of construction projects require bids to secure contracts, so why not hire us to avoid inflated costs and ensure winning a proposal?

    Types of Residential Cost Estimating Projects We Handle

    Our expert residential estimators never lag in estimating projects whether it is new construction of a residency, renovations, remodeling, or custom homes estimate. Our CSI-compliant assessments accurately cover all relevant CSI divisions and present financially viable residential estimates in no time.

    Key Materials Quantified in Residential Takeoffs For Contractors

    Every construction trade contractor can outsource residential estimating services to ensure a 96% ratio to win the bid proposal because we quantify everything from beams, studs, to rafters and nails with a complete detailed description. Here are a few items: 

    • Masonry for Walls
    • Quantify Doors, Windows, Metal
    • Interior/exterior Finishes
    • Plumbing Fixtures
    • Labor Costs with Required Hours
    • Electrical Components
    • Wood/plastic Composites for Structural Lumber, or Carpentry
    • Concrete Required for Constructing Foundation, Driveway, or Paving
    • Materials Required for Sitework, Site Preparation, Excavation, & Landscaping

    How Do We Calculate Residential Quantity Takeoff Costs?

    Our residential estimating team follows a structured and precise method to calculate material takeoff costs for residential projects. It includes:

    • Measuring the total square footage of the project including all areas that will require material, such as walls, floors, ceilings, and exterior spaces.
    • Next, we find the coverage rate of each material that defines how much area a single unit of the material can cover.
    • After that, we divide the total square footage by the coverage rate to find out the material quantity required for the entire project.
    • Now our team then makes a list of materials needed to complete the residential project including structural materials, finishes, plumbing fixtures, electrical components, and more.
    • To estimate the cost, we analyze current market prices, vendor rates, and regional cost variations. We also consider the quality, brand, or any supplier-specific adjustments. Then we add the pricing and present the residential quantity takeoff estimate listed in CSI MasterFormat division-wise in an Excel sheet.
