Licensed Civil Engineer & Master Plumber I Quantity Takeoff I Cost Estimator

I've been in costing for almost 5 years in my career. I did Construction estimate especially for pre construction preparation quantity take off and during actual implementation.

I deliver accurate and detailed construction estimates based on plans, specifications, and scope requirements for residential and commercial projects. I have solid experience in quantity takeoffs covering structural, architectural, and basic MEP trades, ensuring realistic budgeting and cost control aligned with industry standards. I use PlanSwift for digital takeoffs and MS Excel for cost analysis, pricing, and preparation of Bills of Quantities (BOQ), material takeoffs, and estimate summaries. I am experienced in measuring and quantifying concrete, reinforcing steel, formwork, masonry, drywall, finishes, and other key construction components. For RFIs, submittals, and document control, I use Bluebeam to review drawings, perform markups, track revisions, and manage project documentation efficiently. I am familiar with standard workflows, including RFI tracking, drawing registers, and version control, ensuring clear coordination with project managers, estimators, and subcontractors. With a background in Civil Engineering and hands-on site experience, I understand real-world construction methods, sequencing, and cost implications, allowing me to produce practical, buildable, and reliable estimates. I am detail-oriented, organized, and deadline-driven, with the ability to work independently and communicate effectively in remote project environments.

I use PlanSwift for fast and accurate quantity takeoffs directly from digital drawings. It helps me measure areas, lengths, and volumes efficiently for trades like earthworks, concrete, formworks, roofing, etc. making it essential for preparing detailed estimates and BOQs.

I use Bluebeam revu for efficient PDF-based takeoffs, markups, and document control. It allows me to review drawings, generate RFIs, track revisions, making it essential during the estimating and pre-construction phases.
