high-complexity packages where accuracy matters most - drylining systems, fire protection, and facade compliance.

With 2,000+ projects estimated across UK, Australia, and Europe, we deliver the precision and speed contractors need to win profitable work.

From detailed BIM takeoffs to BSR/HRB compliance cost assessments, our expertise helps you price with confidence and avoid costly surprises.

Bim Takeoff

Why Us?

Why Choose Our BIM Takeoff?

Accurate Estimates

Precision Built on 2,000+ Projects

Say goodbye to guesswork. With two decades of experience across UK, Australia, and Europe, we deliver detailed cost estimates. Our deep trade knowledge in drylining, fire protection, and facades means we catch the details others miss - giving you reliable data for confident decision-making.

Time-Saving

From Drawings to Data in Days, Not Weeks
Modern construction moves fast. We extract quantities from any format—2D drawings, 3D models, or federated BIM environments—delivering formatted outputs ready for your estimating software. Quick turnarounds (2-7 days typical) without compromising accuracy mean you stay competitive when time is tight.

Cost-Effective

Smart Budgeting That Protects Your Margins
Accurate estimation prevents costly overruns and wastage. Our value engineering recommendations identify savings without compromising quality or compliance. Whether you're tendering competitively or planning a development, our estimates help you price work profitably and avoid financial surprises.

Comprehensive Reports

Audit-Ready Deliverables Structured for Your Workflow
Receive detailed breakdowns of quantities, materials, and costs formatted for your process. Our reports are clear, traceable, and easy to integrate into your workflow, with quality assurance checks on every takeoff for added confidence.

Expert Team

Specialist Knowledge in Complex Construction Packages
Our team brings hands-on trade expertise, not just general QS knowledge. We specialize in high-complexity packages (drylining systems, fire protection, facade compliance) and stay current with BSR/HRB regulations post-Grenfell. Ready to tackle projects of any complexity with international standards and modern BIM capability.

BSR/HRB Compliance Expertise

Post-Grenfell regulations demand rigorous compliance budgeting. We specialize in fire safety systems, facade remediation, and Building Safety Regulator requirements - helping you plan accurately for High Risk Buildings and avoid regulatory cost surprises that can exceed budgets by 50-100%.

Our Services Include

Cost Estimation & Budget Planning

Accurate Pricing That Wins Work and Protects Margins
In a competitive market, winning bids requires precision. Price too high and you lose the work. Price too low and you lose money. With over 2,000 projects estimated across diverse markets (UK, Australia, Europe), we deliver cost estimates that balance competitiveness with profitability.


Our cost estimation services cover:
📊 Preliminary Estimates
Early-stage budgeting from concept designs, feasibility studies, or outline specifications. Ideal for developers assessing project viability or architects validating design budgets.


📋 Detailed Pre-Tender Estimates 
Comprehensive estimates based on design development or tender packages. Used by contractors to prepare competitive bids or by developers to validate market pricing.


💰 Value Engineering Analysis
Identify cost-saving opportunities without compromising quality or compliance. We challenge specifications, propose alternative materials/methods, and quantify savings.


⚠️ Risk & Contingency Assessment
Quantified risk registers aligned with your project's exposure. We help you price uncertainty appropriately rather than adding generic contingencies.


What sets us apart:

Real-world trade knowledge from 20+ years in the field
International perspective (UK/Australia standards and market rates)
Specialist expertise in complex packages (fire, facades, drylining)

Typical turnaround: 3-7 days depending on complexity

Trade-Specific Specialist Services

 

Deep Technical Knowledge in High-Value Packages
Generic quantity surveying misses the nuances. A QS who doesn't understand fire door types or facade system interfaces will miss critical costs. We bring 20+ years of hands-on experience in three high-complexity trades: drylining & partitions, fire protection systems, and facades & cladding.


Our specialist trade expertise:
🧱 Drylining & Partitions

Metal stud systems (C-stud, I-stud, cellular beams)
Board specifications (fire, acoustic, moisture, impact resistance)
Fire-rated partitions and compartmentation
Service penetrations and coordination
Acoustic testing and performance specifications

🔥 Fire Protection Systems

Passive fire protection (boards, intumescent coatings, sprays)
Compartmentation and firestopping (linear, penetration, structural)
Fire doors, glazing, and hardware
Smoke control and ventilation systems
Interface coordination (MEP penetrations through fire barriers)

🏗️ Facades & Cladding

Rainscreen cladding systems (material, support, insulation)
Curtain walling (unitized, stick systems)
Insulated panels (SIPs, composite, sandwich panels)
Building Safety Act compliance (fire testing, safety barriers)
Weather-tightness and thermal performance

 

What this means for you:

Subcontractors: We understand your trade, your risks, your market
Main contractors: We manage complex package interfaces
Developers: We identify value engineering in high-cost elements
Consultants: We provide specialist peer review

Our trade knowledge = your competitive advantage

Our takeoff services include

🖥️ BIM-Based Takeoffs
Extract quantities directly from Revit, IFC models, or federated environments (Navisworks, BIM 360). We work with LOD 300-400 models, identifying clashes and missing elements that affect quantities.


📐 2D/CAD Takeoffs
Traditional measurement from PDF, AutoCAD, or paper drawings. Essential when BIM models lack detail or for retrofit/refurbishment projects where models don't exist.


🔄 Hybrid Approach
Combine BIM model quantities with 2D detail takeoffs—giving you BIM efficiency plus drawing accuracy for critical elements (connections, penetrations, interfaces).


📤 Formatted Outputs
Deliverables structured for your estimating software (Excel templates, CostX libraries, custom formats). We adapt to your process, not force you to adapt to ours.


Why choose us:

2,000+ projects measured across all construction sectors
Trade-specific knowledge (we know what's missing in drawings)
Quality assurance: every takeoff is checked by a second QS

Typical turnaround: 2-5 days for packages up to £2M

BSR/HRB Compliance Cost Assessments

Expert Cost Guidance for Building Safety Compliance


The Building Safety Act transformed UK construction. High Risk Buildings  now face stringent requirements — and the cost implications are significant. From Golden Thread compliance to facade remediation, we help you budget accurately for regulatory requirements.


Our BSR/HRB services include:
🔥 Fire Protection System Estimates

Passive fire protection (compartmentation, firestopping)
Active systems (sprinklers, smoke control, detection/alarm)
Fire doors, glazing, and penetration sealing
Compliance upgrades for existing buildings

🏢 Facade & Cladding Assessments

Remediation cost estimates for ACM/HPL replacement
EWS1 compliance works budgeting
Rainscreen system upgrades to meet Building Safety Act
Testing and certification costs (BS 8414, BR 135)

📋 BSR Compliance Planning

Golden Thread documentation costs
Gateway submission preparation budgets
Building Control approvals and fees
Principal Designer/Principal Contractor compliance requirements

⚖️ Risk Mitigation Strategies

Identify cost exposure from regulatory changes
Scenario planning for alternative compliance routes
Budget contingencies aligned with BSR timelines

Why this matters:
Building Safety costs can exceed initial estimates by 50-100% if not properly planned. Our specialist knowledge helps developers, building owners, and contractors budget realistically and avoid financial surprises.


We stay current with evolving regulations and provide practical, cost-effective compliance strategies.
 

Technology Meets Experience

Advanced Tools, Expert Interpretation

We combine industry-leading software (Revit, CostX, Bluebeam) with 20+ years of hands-on QS expertise. Technology extracts the data—our experience interprets what it means for your project and catches what software misses.

The result? Takeoffs that are faster than manual measurement, more accurate than automated extraction alone, and validated by specialists who understand how buildings actually go together.
