Estimating · Millwork and cabinetry
Millwork and cabinetry estimating: every elevation, every box.
We count cabinets, countertops and millwork items from the plans and interior elevations. You get quantities or a priced bid.
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.
Cabinets and countertops
In linear metres and per box, from the elevations, with the specified material.
Trim
Mouldings, casings, wood base and wall panelling, in linear metres or m².
Custom work
Reception desks, benches, storage and special items, detailed separately.
Hardware and finishes
Cabinet hardware, laminate, veneer, lacquer and the required quality grade.
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.
- The quality grade required by the specs, which changes fabrication and price.
- Missing elevations for some rooms, which must be completed from the plan.
- Quartz or solid surface countertops, sometimes in the millwork package, sometimes not.

Do you produce shop drawings?

Yes. Often useful to compare with your own shop costs.
Do you work in residential?
Mostly commercial, institutional and multi-residential, but we look at every request.
