San Antonio combines military, medical, and manufacturing work with steady single-family growth on the north and west sides, and much of it is built on caliche and expansive clay. Whether you're bidding the South Texas Medical Center or manufacturing growth on the city's south side, our masonry estimators build quantities from your drawings, not from rules of thumb.
In humid San Antonio, masonry moisture management matters, and our takeoffs include flashing and weeps. The area's soils can crack masonry, so we include control joints and reinforcing.
Code requirements change quantities, so our masonry estimators review every San Antonio drawing set against the IBC and IRC editions adopted by San Antonio, paying attention to reinforcing, tie spacing, flashing, and fire-wall requirements. The takeoff is built in Tradesmen's Software, PlanSwift, and Bluebeam Revu and delivered as an Excel workbook with color-coded, marked-up plans.
