Estimating · Masonry
Masonry estimating: brick, block and stone, measured net.
We measure veneers and block walls with openings deducted, plus every accessory that makes the difference. You get quantities or a bid ready for the BSDQ.
What you get
- Quantities by element, in Excel and PDF
- Or a priced estimate: labour, materials and equipment
- Delivered before the BSDQ or contractor closing
- A confidentiality agreement, if you want one
What we measure
What we take off your drawings.
Veneers
Brick, stone and masonry panels in net m², by elevation and type.
Concrete block
Load-bearing and partition walls by thickness, with rebar, grout and bond beams.
Accessories
Lintels, flashing, ties, joint reinforcement, weep holes and control joints.
Conditions
Scaffolding, winter protection and cleaning, based on the schedule.
Two ways to work
Quantities only, or a priced estimate.
Quantity takeoff
Your quantities organized by element, the way you build your price. You apply your rates and submit.
Priced estimate
We add labour, materials and equipment, at Quebec market prices or your own rates. Ready to submit.
Watch out for
What we often see missing from a bid.
- Opening returns and corners, which add cutting and time.
- Steel lintels assumed to be in the steel package when the specs put them in masonry.
- Winter masonry with no enclosure or heat in the price.
