Why Choose Estimating Canada
Built For Contractors Who Need It Right
Data and structured cabling estimating services in Canada
Data and communications work is a count of outlets, a measure of cable and a list of what goes in the rooms at each end. The costs sit in the pathways, the testing and the equipment rooms as much as in the cable itself.
We prepare data and structured cabling takeoffs from the communications drawings, with outlets, cable, pathways and racks on their own lines.
| What we count and price
| Canadian cabling detail
| How we price it
Outlets are counted by room and type, cable lengths are measured by run with a service loop allowance, and the equipment rooms are listed on their own. Testing and certification are separate so you can compare them with your installer.
| Timing
Small data takeoffs are normally ready in about 4 to 6 hours and larger projects in 6 to 48 hours, depending on size and urgency.
