Our Process for Sarasota Projects

Systems Review

We evaluate the plans for each discipline (M, E, P) and identify where systems intersect or drive sizing for one another.

Detailed Takeoff

Quantification of all equipment, piping, ductwork, conduit, wire, and fixtures.

Coordination Check

We flag potential clashes (e.g., ductwork and plumbing in the same chase) that could cause change orders.

Pricing & Delivery

We apply current Florida labor and material rates to deliver a unified MEP estimate.
