Why Choose Estimating Canada
Built For Contractors Who Need It Right
Finish carpentry estimating services for Canadian contractors
Finish carpentry is what the client sees: trim, doors, stairs, railings and built-in shelving. It is counted in linear feet and by piece, and a small miscount in baseboard or casing repeats on every floor.
We prepare finish carpentry takeoffs from the architectural drawings and finish schedules, with material and labour shown separately.
| What we count and price
| Material and finish
| How we price it
Lengths are taken room by room and added to the cost with waste on its own line, since corners and mitres use more material than the straight run. Labour can be priced per linear foot or per opening, whichever matches the way you bid.
| Timing
Small finish carpentry takeoffs are normally ready in about 4 to 6 hours and larger projects in 6 to 48 hours, depending on size and urgency.
