SMA Estimating Strategy for Insulation Estimating.
Our estimators at SMA Estimating are prepared to handle even the most complicated projects. They are fully aware of the uniqueness of each project in terms of timelines, location, manufacturers, and crew size. Our estimating process begins with a comprehensive assessment of drawing plans, specifications, and bid papers to define the scope of work. Later, utilizing the finest insulation software, such as Planswift, FastWRAP, and others, a digital takeoff quantifies all of the materials and output to EXCEL spreadsheets. The insulating layers, jacketing, adhesives, paints, and other materials are precisely measured to determine the material and labor costs.
