Winning work starts with numbers you can stand behind. Remote quantity takeoff services for flooring, countertops, and cabinets -delivered with precision you can trust.
Unicalibre Estimating is an architect-led construction estimating and quantity takeoff firm serving flooring contractors, countertop fabricators, cabinet manufacturers, and specialty subcontractors across the United States and Canada. Founded by Amruta Naik, an architect with a Master's in Construction Management from Texas A&M University, Unicalibre delivers peer-reviewed takeoffs in native software formats including MeasureSquare, RFMS, Bluebeam, PlanSwift, Callidus, and Safe Harbor. Our estimators work directly within your software licenses and existing workflows, and every estimate undergoes a mandatory secondary peer review before delivery. As an add-on service, our team coordinates with material distributors and manufacturers to obtain current pricing and freight costs before bid submission. We help contractors increase bid volume by 40–60% and protect margins without adding headcount.
Watch a 75-second overview of how our peer-reviewed takeoff process protects your margins and frees your team from the estimating desk.

Demo, removals, floor prep -items missed at bid become costs you absorb.
One-size-fits-all waste kills margins. Patterns, cuts, layouts -they all need different factors.
Bidding from old plans means wrong quantities. GCs won't adjust later.
Takeoffs eat hours. More bids = more wins. But who has the time?
Because Quantities Without Pricing Don't Win Jobs.
Every note, spec, and detail -studied and documented.
We contact distributors for real pricing. Freight included.
Every takeoff gets a second set of eyes before it reaches you.
Trades We Specialize In
Unlike generic offshore estimating services that assign rotating generalists to your projects, Unicalibre provides a disciplined, architect-led estimating process built specifically for US construction standards.
Every takeoff undergoes mandatory secondary review by a different estimator before delivery. This peer-review system catches missed scope items, incorrect waste factors, drawing discrepancies, and measurement errors that single-estimator workflows miss.
Our estimators work directly within the software licenses and seats your team already uses. Whether it is MeasureSquare, RFMS, Bluebeam, PlanSwift, Callidus, or Safe Harbor, we plug into your existing workflow seamlessly. Your team handles pricing, labor rates, and final adjustments in the same project files. No re-entry. No format conversion. One integrated workflow.
Our estimators are trained to catch the items that erode margins after award: floor prep requirements, moisture barriers, Schluter transitions, manufacturer-required adhesives and underlayments, pattern repeats, addendum changes, drawing discrepancies between plans and finish schedules, ceiling height verification, and unit count verification in multi-family and hotel projects.
As an add-on service, our team contacts distributors and manufacturers on your behalf to obtain current material pricing, freight costs, and lead time information before bid submission. This ensures your bid reflects real-market numbers rather than outdated price lists or averages.
