Cost Estimation & Bill of Quantities (BOQ)
A BOQ (bill of quantities) lists the materials and labour for every item of work. We show where each figure comes from, so you know the real cost before work starts, and the same BOQ becomes the basis of the contract.
What’s included
- Quantity take-off from the drawings for structure, architecture and building services
- Unit rates with materials and labour shown separately
- A clear summary by trade
- Updates when the design or material specification changes
- Any added or omitted work needs your approval first
Who it’s for
- Homeowners who want the real cost before deciding
- Owners comparing several contractor quotes on a fair basis
- Public and private organisations setting a project budget
Frequently asked questions
Why get a BOQ before signing a contract?
A BOQ shows exactly what you are paying for, reduces the risk of cost overruns and gives a clear basis for checking added or omitted work during construction.
Do I need drawings before a BOQ?
Drawings are needed for an accurate take-off. If you do not have any yet, our design team can prepare them.
Do you prepare BOQs for public-sector work?
Yes. We work on all building types, including projects for government agencies.
