Why Contractors Rely on Our Flooring Takeoff Services

Eliminate Costly Material Shortages

Eliminate Costly Material Shortages

Running short on tile, hardwood, or vinyl in the middle of a project doesn’t just delay timelines; it damages your credibility. The Fedes estimating services calculate exact material quantities with proper waste factors based on layout patterns, cuts, and room dimensions.

Protect Your Margins on Every Bid

Protect Your Margins on Every Bid

Flooring projects often look simple on paper but hide complex labor variables like subfloor prep, transitions, patterns, adhesives, and specialty finishes. We account for those hidden cost drivers so your estimate reflects real-world installation conditions.

What Our Clients Say

quote

“Their estimate saved us from underbidding a hardwood job.”
The project looked simple, but there was a lot of subfloor prep involved that we almost didn’t factor correctly. Their detailed breakdown highlighted those hidden costs. We adjusted our pricing and still won the job, without sacrificing our margins.

Daniel S., Wood Flooring Contractor

quote

“Clean reports. Accurate quantities. Fast turnaround.”
What I liked most was how organized everything was. Tile counts, grout, mortar, waste, all clearly listed. It made submitting our proposal to the client easy and professional. We’ve now made them part of our regular bidding process.

Luis M., Tile Contractor

quote

“We used to calculate flooring quantities in-house, and honestly, we were missing things.”
On a recent commercial project, we underestimated adhesive and transition trims, which cut into our profit. After outsourcing our estimation, everything was clearly broken down. The last two bids we submitted were far more confident and structured.
