Electrical Takeoffs Built for Confident Bid-Day Numbers
Division 26 scope from power and lighting through fire alarm and low-voltage, organized takeoffs, marked PDFs, and Excel exports formatted for your estimating workflow.
Electrical bids compress margin when device counts, feeder lengths, or gear schedules are wrong. Sky Estimates produces Division 26 takeoffs that separate power, lighting, fire alarm, and low-voltage layers so reviewers can audit scope before pricing locks.
Whether you are pricing a tenant improvement, a healthcare wing, or a multi-family core-and-shell package, our estimators quantify conduit, wire, devices, fixtures, panels, and gear from plans and specifications you provide.
Deliverables include marked PDFs, Excel summaries, and assumption notes tied to sheet references, built for electrical subs, design-build teams, and GCs validating subcontractor scope.
Upload plans through our contact page or email info@skyestimates.com with your bid date. We respond with a fixed production quote, usually within hours on business days.
Remote Electrical Estimating Support
Outsourcing Division 26 production lets your in-house team stay on client calls, buyout meetings, and addenda review instead of overnight markup. Sky Estimates acts as a remote bench you scale up during heavy bid weeks and dial back when the calendar clears.
Every package passes internal QA before delivery. Assumptions on incomplete one-lines, missing panel schedules, or unresolved low-voltage boundaries are documented so your PM knows what still needs clarification from the design team.
Trade Experience Across Project Types
Our electrical estimators work regularly on commercial offices, retail, hospitality, healthcare, industrial plants, and residential multi-family work. We understand how owners, engineers, and subs phrase Division 26 scope differently, and we structure takeoffs to match how you buy the work.
Typical turnaround is 24 to 48 hours on standard drawing sets once scope and templates are confirmed. Rush schedules are available when bid calendars stack up.

How Electrical Estimating Works With Sky Estimates
Send your drawing set, panel schedules, specifications, and bid date. We confirm Division 26 boundaries, low-voltage inclusions, and your preferred Excel format before quoting production.
After you approve the quote, a lead electrical estimator runs takeoffs in Bluebeam and PlanSwift, organizing counts by sheet reference and separating power, lighting, and low-voltage layers for review.
You receive marked PDFs, Excel exports, and assumption notes on the agreed schedule. Follow-up revisions are tied to addenda or ASI issues so bid-day scope stays current.
Electrical Estimating FAQs
Production runs in Bluebeam and PlanSwift with exports to Excel aligned to your template. We can match custom division headers, area splits, and color-coded markup standards on repeat accounts.
Standard Division 26 packages often deliver within 24 to 48 hours after quote approval and receipt of a complete drawing set. Rush timelines are available when your bid calendar requires it.
Yes, with documented assumptions. We flag missing panel schedules, unresolved feeder routing, and spec conflicts so your team knows what requires RFIs before pricing is final.
Upload plans through our contact page or email them with your bid date, scope notes, and template preferences. We confirm receipt, quote production, and assign a lead estimator before markup begins.
