Accurate Quantity Take-Offs & Construction Estimating Support
Aurex Engineering provides professional construction estimating and quantity take-off services for contractors, subcontractors, developers and construction professionals across the UK. We review architectural, structural and MEP drawings, specifications, schedules and tender documents to identify and quantify the required works and materials. Our estimating services cover both complete construction projects and individual trade packages, including structural steel, concrete, rebar, masonry, roofing, carpentry, drywall, flooring, painting, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, mechanical and joinery. We can provide detailed material take-offs, measured quantities, BOQ support, trade breakdowns, cost build-ups, tender estimates, budget estimates, marked-up drawings and estimate worksheets, depending on the agreed scope. We also support tender revisions and addenda by reviewing updated drawings and incorporating relevant changes into the estimate. Our approach focuses on clear quantity breakdowns, organised documentation, defined assumptions and exclusions, and practical estimating support aligned with UK construction and tendering requirements.

More Than Individual Trade Take Offs Complete GC Project Estimating
Aurex Engineering can support complete General Contractor (GC) projects, providing comprehensive estimating across multiple trades from a single set of project documents. Instead of limiting our services to individual trade packages, we can review the full project scope and prepare a coordinated estimate covering structural, architectural, civil, MEP, finishes and other relevant construction trades. Our team can develop detailed quantities, trade-by-trade cost breakdowns, material take-offs, labour allowances where applicable, exclusions, assumptions and tender pricing support to give contractors a consolidated view of the project requirements.
