As we know, insulation estimating services depend largely on the project type. Our competent estimators at Aussie Estimators actively strive to provide the best possible insulation method within the time and budget constraints. Although we have completed several private and government insulation project estimates for many clients, our insulation project type portfolio includes all of the following:

• Aerodynamics

• Marine (ships)

• Mining Projects

• High-Rise Buildings

• Government Buildings

• Military Construction

• Municipal Buildings

• Hospitality Buildings

• Offshore Construction

• Tunnels & Concrete Walls

• Drilling Platforms

• Pumping Stations

General Overview

How Do We Cater for Different Estimation Projects?

Many in the market make a big mistake when handling residential projects and miss takeoff estimation at the initiation of the project, which does not benefit them in the long run. We count the cost of your residential projects, and with our accurate estimation, we provide you with a markup plan for your construction that guides you on which takeoffs you need to purchase before the project begins and where you can find them at good quality and affordable prices. Our estimation blueprint also provides insight into the takeoff and overall building structure, covering multiple domains and roughly calculating the minimal time duration in which the project can be finished.

Our residential construction estimating services cover four key areas to ensure material takeoff estimation meets quality and excellence standards for your building project.

Mechanical Insulation Takeoffs Estimation

Our accurate material takeoff provides the ideal foundation for purchasing materials. We offer comprehensive mechanical insulation estimate solutions for residential, industrial, and commercial buildings. If your bid materials, drawing plans, and specifications are outdated, we can help by offering mechanical insulation estimating services for mechanical, HVAC piping, HVAC duct, industrial piping, industrial duct, plumbing, equipment, and fire-stopping. We also create comprehensive bid proposals and review bid papers.

Thermal Insulation Takeoffs Estimation

As a trusted and capable estimating partner for thermal insulation contractors, we offer precise insulation batts and cost estimates to prevent reordering issues and reduce profit losses. By digitally measuring the walls and ceilings, our insulation estimators ensure that you have the appropriate amount of insulation for installation. From bid preparation to procurement, project management to close-out, we provide unwavering support throughout the project lifecycle.

Piping Insulation Takeoffs and Estimation

We take pride in efficiently supplying the appropriate quantities of insulation and pricing details for industrial plumbing, mechanical, and HVAC systems. With a variety of insulation material options—including mineral wool, fiberglass, polyisocyanurate foam, calcium silicate, Techlite foam, foam glass, polyethylene, and more—we can insulate a wide range of industrial systems.

Roofing Insulation Takeoffs and Estimation

Many roofing contractors rely on our qualified estimators to provide them with high-quality services promptly. To facilitate on-site roofing installation, we offer cost estimations and thorough shop drawings. We meticulously measure tapered insulation, metal roofing, fasteners, and other components to generate accurate roofing bids while understanding the specific requirements of commercial and residential roofing.

Fireproofing / Fire-stopping Insulation Takeoffs Estimation

Fire safety contractors rely on us for accurate quantity takeoff, requiring extreme precision and attention to detail. Our insulation estimators carefully review plans to calculate sprinkler heads, smoke detectors, and insulation material types, ensuring compliance with fireproofing and fire-stopping processes. We offer comprehensive fireproofing consulting services, including estimation and bid proposals.

Components We Quantify for Fireproofing:

• Steel, Beams & Columns

• Pipes, Pipelines & Pipe Joints

• Floors, Walls, Roofs, Ceilings

• Vessels, Tanks, Piping & Supports

• Flanges / Valves, Ducts, Metal Stud Framing

• Cable Trays, Control Panels, Actuators

• LPG Containers

Waterproofing / Damp Proofing Insulation Takeoffs Estimation

We provide estimation solutions to homebuilders, owners, and contractors for commercial and residential new construction and retrofit projects. Our insulation estimators meticulously calculate precise amounts of cellulose, loose fill, foam board insulation, batts, duct wrap, and all other insulation types used for thermal/moisture protection, soundproofing, and waterproofing.

Insulation Types We Quantify:

• Hydrophilic Systems of Waterproofing

• Hydrophobic Systems of Waterproofing

• Bituminous Waterproofing

• Damp Proofing

• Positive-Side Waterproofing

• Negative-Side Waterproofing

• Mechanical Seal

• Topical Sealers

• Penetrating Sealants

All Buildings Insulation Takeoffs and Estimation

We offer estimation solutions to homebuilders, owners, and contractors for all types of construction projects, whether it’s a new installation or the repair of an existing insulation barrier. Our estimators are experienced in multiple insulation applications, including crawl spaces, basement ceilings, metal buildings, spas, and hot tubs.

Insulation Types We Quantify:

• Radiant Barriers & Reflective Insulation

• Loose-Fill & Blown-in Insulation

• Rigid Fiber-board Insulation

• Blanket & Batt Insulation

• Foam Board Insulation

• Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs)

• Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs)

• Sprayed Foam & Foamed-in-place

• Liquid Foam

Our Digitized and Advanced Approach to Insulation Takeoffs

Our estimators at Aussie Estimators can efficiently manage even the most complex projects. They are familiar with project-specific requirements based on timelines, locations, manufacturers, and crew sizes. We start by carefully reviewing drawing plans, specifications, and bid documents to define the scope of work.

Using advanced insulation software such as FastWRAP and Planswift, we execute digital takeoffs to quantify all materials, exporting data to Excel spreadsheets. Our cost estimates include accurate measurements of all insulating layers, jacketing, adhesives, paints, and more.

By utilizing vendor quotes, RSMeans (pricing based on zip code), and our regularly updated construction cost database, we apply material and labor costs accurately. We generate thorough, user-friendly, and editable reports detailing material and labor costs per linear or square foot, labor hours, rentals, tools, licenses, overhead costs, profit margins, and more.

Typical Deliverables:

• Electronic takeoff file

• Resource listings

• Material & labor cost breakdown

• Marked-up plans with color coding

• Full bid evaluation, including inclusion/exclusion list

• Takeoff summary with labor hours, total material and labor costs, rentals, equipment, taxes, overheads, and profit margin

At Aussie Estimators, our goal is to provide accurate and efficient insulation estimation services that ensure project success while staying within budget and time constraints.
