Masonry Estimating Services We Provide
Preliminary Masonry Takeoffs
We provide early-stage masonry quantity takeoffs based on conceptual or schematic drawings. This service helps contractors and developers evaluate feasibility, estimate material needs, and plan budgets before committing to full design development. It’s ideal for pre-construction planning and early-stage project evaluation.
Final Masonry Bid Estimates
Once your construction drawings are finalized, we deliver detailed estimates for all masonry components—including CMU blocks, brick veneer, mortar, ties, reinforcement, and labor. Our takeoffs include waste factors and regional pricing for accurate, bid-ready numbers tailored to your scope and schedule.

We work with subcontractors, GCs, and real estate developers to provide complete masonry cost estimates that align with local labor rates and building codes. Whether it’s a load-bearing wall system or decorative stone veneer, we ensure your numbers are accurate, competitive, and delivered on time.

Your results are delivered in Excel and PDF formats—easy to review, share, and integrate into your proposal.
Final Review & Adjustments
We’ll walk you through the estimate and address any questions or changes. If you need to adjust material specs, labor rates, or scope, we revise accordingly. Our goal is to help you submit clear, competitive bids—on time and with total confidence.
Our Accuracy Guarantee – Masonry Estimates
At Service Squad Estimating, we know that masonry accuracy is critical—every block, brick, and joint counts. Our estimates are built using advanced takeoff tools and are reviewed by experienced masonry estimators who understand the details that affect cost and performance.
We factor in mortar joints, reinforcements, openings, and regional labor rates to deliver highly precise estimates you can rely on. Each estimate undergoes a multi-level review process to minimize omissions and reduce the risk of overbidding or costly change orders.
If corrections or revisions are needed, we make them promptly—at no additional cost. That’s our commitment to your success.
