PAINTING TAKEOFF

A Faster, More Confident Start on Painting Takeoffs

ConstructConnect Takeoff helps you get a first pass on painting scope while giving you the visibility and control to review the quantities and assumptions behind your bid. Bring your plans, schedules, details, and takeoff work together in a browser-based workflow.

Takeoff Assist is an AI chat that helps you work through your project. Ask it to help with painting scope, review the results, and refine your estimate with your own judgment.

HOW IT WORKS

Painting takeoff workflow

  1. Upload your plans

    Open your project in the browser. Auto Name and Auto Scale help organize pages and set drawing scale, reducing repetitive setup so you can get to the takeoff sooner.

  2. Get a head start on painting measurements

    Ask Takeoff Assist to help with the surface finish, trim and door, or ceiling scope shown in your plans. Start with the conditions that matter to your bid, then review results against finish schedules, elevations, reflected ceiling plans, details, and specifications.

  3. Review the work behind the number

    Review the results and make any changes before completing your estimate. Check finish types, included surfaces, trim and doors, and ceiling conditions against the full drawing set. Ask Takeoff Assist to help locate the schedule or detail behind a condition that needs clarification.

FIRST PASS

Get a head start on painting quantities

Painting scope can change by room, surface, wall face, elevation, opening, or ceiling type. Auto Takeoff can help organize a first pass across surface finishes, trim and doors, and ceilings, giving you more time to review the assumptions behind your estimate.

Example prompt“Help me review the wall paint and wall covering scope by room. Use the finish schedules and flag surfaces or conditions that need clarification.”

TRACE THE DETAIL

Find the detail behind the quantity

Painting conditions often depend on information spread across finish schedules, elevations, reflected ceiling plans, details, and specifications. Takeoff Assist can help you look across the project for the information behind a finish or surface condition.

Example prompts“What finish is scheduled for this room?”
“Which areas are included in the ceiling finish scope?”

REVIEW WITH CONFIDENCE

Focus review on the scope that drives the estimate

Check finish types and included surfaces against schedules and details. Review wall paint, wall covering, wall tile, trim, doors, and ceilings, and confirm where scope changes by room, wall face, elevation, or substrate. Resolve unclear finish requirements and scope boundaries before finalizing quantities.

Complete takeoffs from anywhere

Cloud-based browser access lets you open project plans and takeoffs from the office, the job site, or at home. No desktop install means your painting estimating work is not tied to one workstation.

Put less time into setup and more into estimating

Automated page naming and scale setup help reduce repetitive preparation. Auto Takeoff can help organize an initial pass on painting scope, while Takeoff Assist gives you another way to work through project information. Review and refine the results before using them in your estimate.

Stay in control

Review takeoff results and make any changes you need. Ask Takeoff Assist for context behind a measurement, then use your expertise to confirm scale, scope, finish conditions, and quantities before finalizing your bid.
