For General Contractors, Framing Contractors & Lumber Suppliers
Remote Estimation delivers professional Texas lumber estimating services and lumber takeoff services for general contractors, subcontractors, builders, and developers throughout Texas. Texas runs the highest lumber and framing volume of any state — high-volume residential subdivision wood framing across Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and Austin drives enormous material demand, while commercial framing for corporate campuses and industrial administrative areas requires precise quantity takeoffs. Our estimating team prepares bid-ready lumber takeoffs and cost estimates from your construction drawings and specifications — so Texas contractors can bid competitively, win more work, and protect their margins.
Contractors lose thousands of dollars every year to estimation errors, missed scope items, and wasted time. Here's exactly what we fix.
Our estimating team supports a wide variety of construction projects.
Every estimate is prepared from architectural drawings, structural plans, framing layouts, and specifications to provide accurate material quantities and procurement-ready reports.
Detailed, itemized takeoff reports with quantities, costs and clear breakdown of flowing materials. Here's a preview of that.
Every report includes color-coded marked plans, itemized quantity sheets, and a full cost summary — delivered in Excel and PDF formats, ready to attach directly to your bid submission.
Our lumber takeoff services quantify all Division 06 scope elements: dimensional framing lumber (2x4, 2x6, 2x8, 2x10, 2x12), engineered lumber (LVL beams, PSL columns, LSL, and I-joists), roof and floor trusses, wall and roof sheathing (OSB and plywood), subfloor decking, rim boards, blocking, headers, treated lumber, exterior trim and fascia, interior trim (baseboards, casing, crown molding, chair rail), millwork and casework, cabinetry, countertops, paneling, laminates, and all associated Division 06 accessories.
