Fixtures, Piping & Drainage
Plumbing Estimating Takeoff Services
Plumbing takeoffs require careful tracing of pipe runs, fixtures, and risers. We quantify domestic water, sanitary, storm, and gas systems from plumbing drawings and riser diagrams for residential and commercial work.

Fixture Counts
Toilets, sinks, showers, drains, and specialty fixtures from schedules.
Domestic Water Piping
Hot, cold, and recirculation piping by size and material.
Drain, Waste & Vent
Sanitary and storm lines with fittings, cleanouts, and hangers.
Gas Piping
Natural gas and propane lines, regulators, and appliance connections.
Equipment & Water Heaters
Boilers, water heaters, pumps, and backflow devices.
Labour Hours
Rough-in and finish labour by fixture and pipe size.
Why Choose Estimating Canada
Built For Contractors Who Need It Right
Plumbing estimating services for Canadian contractors
Plumbing estimates are won or lost on pipe length, fixture count and the fittings nobody remembers to count. A fixture that appears on the plan but not on the schedule, or a riser that changes size between floors, can turn a good bid into a loss.
We prepare plumbing takeoffs and estimates for contractors across Canada, covering water, drainage, venting, gas and equipment hookups.
| What we count and price
| Canadian code points we watch
| Pipe in feet, fittings by count
Pipe lengths are given in feet (or metres on request) by size and material. Fittings are counted from the drawings, and where the drawings do not show them we add an allowance on its own line so you can adjust it.
| Materials and waste
The material mix depends on the job: copper and PEX for water, and cast iron, ABS or PVC for drainage. Waste is shown as its own line, usually in the 5 to 10% range for materials that are cut and trimmed, and none for items that are counted by piece.
| Shared scope with mechanical and electrical
Who pipes the condensate? Who supplies the water heater disconnect? We list those items and the assumed owner, so they do not fall between subcontractors.

Frequently asked questions
Can you take off from fixture schedules alone?
We use the plans and the schedule together because they do not always match, and then flag the differences.
Do you count fittings or add an allowance?
Fittings are counted where the drawings show them. An allowance for the rest is added on its own line.
Do you price gas piping?
Yes, to the plans and the gas code. A licensed gas fitter must still do the work.
Do you do residential plumbing?
Yes. New homes, renovations and multi-unit buildings.
