What's Included
Complete Millwork & Casework Takeoff
Every millwork takeoff is 100% drawing-referenced — every cabinet run, countertop, trim profile, and panel tied to a specific millwork plan, elevation, or detail sheet.
Architectural Millwork & Custom Casework
Base cabinets, upper cabinets, tall cabinets, and specialty millwork — LF by cabinet type, unit counts for specialty pieces, and SF for panel systems. Material species and finish noted.
Countertops & Work Surfaces
Laminate, solid surface, stone, quartz, and stainless countertops — SF by material type and edge profile. Cutouts for sinks and equipment counted separately.
Finish Carpentry & Trim
Base molding, crown molding, chair rail, door and window casing, wainscoting, and built-in shelving — LF by profile type and material. Painted vs. stained finish noted.
Paneling & Feature Walls
Wood paneling, MDF panels, slat walls, and specialty wall systems — SF by panel type and installation method. Reveals, transitions, and blocking requirements noted.
Laboratory & Healthcare Casework
Steel and phenolic laboratory casework, healthcare casework, and modular systems — unit counts by module type from equipment schedules and millwork drawings.
Excel Workbook + Annotated Markups
Quantities in Excel organized by room and millwork type — with annotated PDF markups tied to millwork plans, elevations, and detail sheets.
Why Choose Us
The Union Estimating Difference
Millwork Drawing Expertise
We read millwork shop drawings, interior elevations, and detail sheets — not just floor plan symbols. Every cabinet, panel, and trim run is measured from the correct view.
Room-by-Room Organization
Quantities are organized by room number and millwork type so your bid matches the project's room finish schedule and the millwork contractor's scope.
Material & Finish Tracked
Species, veneer, laminate grade, and finish type are noted for each item — your bid reflects the specified material, not a generic allowance.
Fixed-Fee Quote Before Work Begins
We review your drawings and provide a firm fee before starting. No hourly billing, no surprises.
48–72 Hour Standard Turnaround
Most millwork takeoffs are delivered within 48 to 72 hours. Rush delivery available.
