Choose your method of takeoff for any trade. Each method will result in a different type of estimate with a different level of detail. 

• Man-Hour is the most detailed method. It can be used for self-performed work and can include materials.
• Labor-Only is used for subcontracted trade labor when the GC supplies materials.
• Turn-Key is the simpliest method used when labor and material is subcontracted to one trade.

Takeoff Units
• Flatwork can be taken off in SF or Length-Width
• Rebar can be taken off in bars or tons
• Finish Lumber can be priced in MBF or Each

Material Takeoffs can be in compliance with bid documents
