About Service

What Are Quantity Surveying Services?

Quantity surveying services involve the professional measurement, costing, and financial management of construction projects from inception to completion. A quantity surveyor (QS) calculates the quantities of materials, labor, and equipment required for a project, prepares detailed bills of quantities, develops cost plans, administers contracts, conducts interim valuations, manages variations, and prepares final accounts. These services ensure that every dollar is accounted for and that projects are delivered within budget. At Phoenix Estimations, our quantity surveying team covers every CSI trade existing today. Our range includes concrete, steel, masonry, glass, lumber, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical for construction of every sort. We use industry-leading software including Planswift, Bluebeam, RICS Mark Systems, ProEst, RS Means, BidPoint XL, and Quest Estimating to deliver accurate quantity surveyor services. We provide the ultimate guide for your construction intent, with services covering every state in the United States, Canada, and Australia.

How Our Quantity Surveying Process Works

Compiling the whole quantity survey is not a matter of a click. It goes a long way from design to solution. First comes design evaluation — our consultant quantity surveyors go through the design given by customers. They assess the materials required for the actual project with the help of the design.

Then comes software. Our professional quantity surveyors use software and estimate every bit of need with it. In the step everything is projected as it would be in the future after the whole process of construction is complete and that every needed material and its intended quantity is measured.

After assessment of material comes pricing. Pricing is tricky as it differs at locations, sometimes higher than the other. We keep this into consideration and price assessed materials accordingly. Lastly comes reviewing of the final thing. A final audit is performed of everything — material and cost to confirm its effective functioning. Concludingly, providing quantity surveyor services that are accurate and reliable.

Our QS Process Includes:

Design evaluation and scope identification
Digital measurement and takeoff using software
Material and labor quantity calculation
Location-based pricing with RS Means
Labor rates, crew sizes, and man-hours
Equipment and overhead costs
Profit margins and contingency allowances
Senior estimator review and quality audit
Final delivery in Excel or customized format

Case Study: General Contractor Success

The Problem

A general contractor in Pennsylvania was managing multiple commercial projects simultaneously but lacked in-house quantity surveying expertise. Their cost estimates were inconsistent across trades, leading to budget overruns averaging 15% per project. They were spending excessive time preparing bills of quantities manually and missing bid deadlines. The company needed a reliable quantity surveying partner to handle measurement, costing, and financial management across all trades.

The Solution

The contractor partnered with Phoenix Estimations for comprehensive quantity surveyor services. We provided detailed bills of quantities across all CSI trades using Planswift and Bluebeam, complete cost plans with elemental breakdowns, progress valuations, variation assessments, and marked-up drawings. Our team delivered residential BOQs within 3-5 days and commercial projects within 5-10 business days, allowing the contractor to bid on significantly more projects with confidence.

The Outcomes

Within 8 months of partnering with Phoenix Estimations, the contractor reduced budget overruns from 15% to under 3% across all projects. Their bid win rate increased from 22% to 48% due to more accurate and competitive pricing. Quantity surveying costs dropped by 60% compared to hiring in-house staff. The contractor now manages 40% more projects annually with our monthly QS support package, and annual revenue grew by 35% in the first year of partnership.
