Roof Insulation Takeoffs for Commercial Roofing Bids
Insulation scope can quietly change a roofing bid. MC2Estimating helps quantify insulation and roof assembly conditions from the plans/specs so contractors can review board counts, layers, cover board, tapered notes, and assumptions.

FAQ
Do you provide roof insulation takeoffs only?
Yes. Smaller insulation-only takeoffs can be quoted separately after reviewing the plans and deadline.
Can you identify tapered insulation?
We can review drawings/specs and note tapered insulation requirements or questions, but final design responsibility remains with the contractor/design team.
What should I send?
Send roof plans, details, specs, addenda, alternates, and any GC notes or bid forms.
