That’s why our team utilizes advanced lumber estimating software to provide clear, precise, and dependable takeoffs you can trust.

What are Lumber Takeoff Services?

The process of quantifying the requisite materials for a construction project is called a lumber takeoff. It consists of calculating dimensional lumber, engineered wood products, plywood, and various timber items.  

From an operational standpoint, a step like ordering lumber requires considerable foresight and precision, not only so the construction proceeds without any halts, it also limits costly delays due to excess budget related materials.  

While knowing how to execute a takeoff is vital knowledge for a contractor or builder, quite a few companies prefer to outsource the work with estimation firms like SRI Estimating to unlock faster and more precise estimates.

Whether you need help with a residential, commercial, or industrial project. Our project cost estimator will try everything possible to cut costs without compromising on the quality.
