Residential Estimating Services

At Bekan Estimating we know every residential project is different. That’s why we provide detailed and accurate material takeoffs specific to your project. Here’s a list of the primary materials we quantify for your residential construction projects:

1. Sitework and Foundation Materials: Materials for site work and foundation work include excavation, grading, backfilling, and landscaping. For foundations, we estimate concrete, rebar, footings, and slab materials.
2. Framing and Structural Materials: We quantify lumber, wood studs, beams, joists, rafters and plywood so you have the right amount of structural material for your home.
3. Roofing Materials: Whether you’re installing shingles, tiles or metal roofing we quantify all materials involved including underlayment, flashing and ventilation components.
4. Concrete and Masonry: We quantify all concrete and masonry materials required for driveways, walkways, patios, walls and foundations. Our takeoffs include concrete volumes, blocks, bricks, mortar and other materials for structural and finish purposes.
5. Windows and Doors: From energy efficient windows to custom doors we provide estimates for all window and door materials. This includes framing, glass, weather seals, hardware and other components for proper installation.
6. Interior Finishes: We quantify drywall, plaster, paint, flooring (hardwood, tile, carpet) and trim. We also estimate ceiling finishes, wall coverings and other decorative items.
7. Plumbing Materials: For plumbing, we provide detailed estimates for all necessary materials including pipes, fittings, fixtures (toilets, sinks, showers), water heaters, and pumps. We also account for drainage, venting systems, and piping insulation to ensure your plumbing system operates efficiently.
8. Electrical and Lighting: Our estimates cover the full range of electrical materials, including wiring, outlets, switches, circuit breakers, light fixtures, and home automation systems.
9. HVAC and Mechanical Systems: Whether you are installing a central heating and cooling system or ductless units, we estimate the materials needed for HVAC systems, including ducts, vents, air handlers, and insulation.
10. Insulation Materials: We quantify all insulation materials used in the walls, attic, floors, and ceilings, whether it’s fiberglass batt, spray foam, or cellulose, ensuring your project stays comfortable and energy-efficient.
11. Specialty Materials: If your project includes specialty materials like custom cabinetry, marble countertops, or premium flooring (e.g., tiles, hardwood), we provide takeoffs for these as well.
12. Landscaping and Outdoor Structures: We assist with estimating materials for landscaping, including plants, soil, gravel, pavers, fences, decks, and patios. If your project includes features like swimming pools, outdoor kitchens, or custom landscaping, we quantify the necessary materials and provide cost estimates.
