About Service
Thermal and moisture protection estimating involves the detailed quantification and cost analysis of all building envelope systems that safeguard structures from weather, temperature, and moisture damage. This includes roofing systems, waterproofing membranes, dampproofing coatings, insulation materials, vapor barriers, sealants, flashing, fireproofing assemblies, siding panels, and caulking. Professional thermal moisture protection estimators analyze architectural and structural drawings to calculate accurate material quantities, labor hours, equipment needs, and total project costs for Division 7 trades. At Phoenix Estimations, our thermal moisture protection estimating team uses industry-leading software including Planswift, Bluebeam, and AutoCAD to digitally take off every component. Our freelance construction estimators prepare cost estimates as per the trade you specialize in, whether it is roofing, waterproofing, fireproofing, insulation, or siding. We deliver thermal moisture protection takeoff reports in Excel spreadsheets organized by MasterFormat Division 7 or your customized format.
Our Service
Our thermal insulation estimating services cover every type of insulation used in residential, commercial, and industrial construction. We provide accurate insulation takeoffs that include fiber insulation, plastic insulation, cellulose insulation, reflective insulation, spray foam insulation, rigid board insulation, and all associated labor and equipment costs. Our estimators review architectural plans and specifications to ensure every area requiring thermal protection is quantified correctly.
A large majority of homeowners reach out to us for their house roof estimates. With our experience and past portfolio of projects, we handle each project with expertise and deliver the projected cost in hours. Roofing contractors regard us as a top roofing estimates company — details are forwarded to our relevant department, necessary details are kept into consideration, and a comprehensive, easy to comprehend estimate is delivered to the client with 24/7 support on call.
Insulation Types We Estimate:
Waterproofing Takeoffs Include:
Our waterproofing estimating services provide accurate material and labor quantities for every waterproofing and dampproofing system specified in your construction plans. Waterproofing contractors are our clients that require the minor details in the material takeoff — not only to make up the bid to the general contractor, but also to procure or buy material on the basis of our takeoff.
Our estimate guides the details about how and where the necessary material is going to be applied on foundation and footings or below grade slabs. Air vapor barriers and sealants contractors are our imminent clients that require our waterproofing takeoff services for preparing up the bid and determining how much material is required. We deliver accurate waterproofing estimates that help contractors bid competitively and avoid costly moisture-related issues.
Fireproofing Estimating:
All fireproofing and firestopping contractors need an estimation company that will do a detailed description takeoff of the plans where rating of fireproofing is mentioned along with the structural assemblies like beams, columns, walls, and structures or framing assemblies. The detailed description includes the thickness of insulation, material of insulation, and structural details of the assembly. Our expert estimators provide all the necessary details for contractors in bidding and procuring. Our fireproofing estimating services portfolio includes schools, public facilities, hospitals, commercial zones, retail, and restaurants.
What We Takeoff:
Our fireproofing takeoffs include spray fireproofing quantities, intumescent fireproofing calculations, fire stopping material volumes, fire retardant cable spray quantities, penetration firestopping details, smoke barriers, and fire-rated assembly specifications. We calculate material costs, labor hours, equipment requirements, and application rates for each fireproofing system. All sealants, pavers, gutters, spray insulation, and intumescent fireproofing work is handled by our professional construction estimators with siding panels, shingles, and membrane roofing bill of quantities generated with details and accuracy maintained.

USA & Canada Coverage
We serve thermal and moisture protection contractors across the United States and Canada with locally-informed pricing and labor rates.
Waterproofing, damp roofing, fire-stopping, caulking, siding, sealants, roofing, and sheet metal flashing contractors have outsourced their estimation to us for thermal and moisture protection trade work. All type sealants, pavers, gutters, spray insulation and intumescent fireproofing work is handled by our professional construction estimators.
Outsourcing your thermal moisture protection estimating services to Phoenix Estimations saves you from buying expensive software and hiring full-time estimating staff. It increases your bid volume, improves accuracy, and gives you confidence that every estimate is prepared by experienced Division 7 specialists. Our monthly estimating packages provide fixed-cost estimates with consistent turnaround times and reduced overhead.
We use industry-leading software to provide the most accurate thermal moisture protection estimates. Our primary tools include Planswift, Bluebeam Revu, AutoCAD, and RSMeans. Each division is described and taken off in detail by our project estimators — every roofing trade of work is accurately and precisely digitized by takeoff software and quantified in an Excel sheet.
We deliver estimates in Excel sheets comprising all the material and labor pricing along with man-hours, either in MasterFormat Division 7 format or your customized format. Material, equipment, and labor costs are estimated using RSMeans and our construction cost database for up-to-date and zip code based pricing. Each estimate is peer-reviewed by our senior estimation team before delivery.
The Problem
A fireproofing contractor had enormous work in commercial facilities and industrial units, making structural takeoffs for beams, columns, assemblies, and drywall fire-rated insulation extremely time-consuming. The estimation expenditure sometimes exceeded the financial ability of the subcontractor, and their manual process limited them to bidding on only 3-4 projects per month. Material waste from inaccurate takeoffs was costing thousands in overruns on each awarded project.
The Solution
The contractor partnered with Phoenix Estimations for their thermal moisture protection estimating services. We provided detailed fireproofing takeoffs using Planswift and Bluebeam, covering spray fireproofing volumes, intumescent coating areas, fire stopping quantities, and complete cost breakdowns. Our team delivered estimates within 2-4 business days with marked-up plans and Excel spreadsheets, at an expense that was 50% less than hiring a professional in-house construction estimator.
The Outcomes
The subcontractor not only saved expense and time but also received quality takeoffs and specialized estimates. Within 6 months, they increased their bid volume from 4 to 15 projects per month, winning 9 of them — a 60% win rate. Material waste dropped by 75%, and annual revenue increased by 40%. The contractor now uses our monthly thermal moisture protection estimating package for all their Division 7 fireproofing and insulation projects.
