Mike Rosen, General Contractor, Naperville IL

“Their takeoffs helped us avoid $18K in material waste. We had a complex roofing and MEP job in Champaign. Royal’s precision takeoff showed us errors in our internal estimate. They helped us correct the order and avoid major overruns.”

Diana Ortega, Project Manager, Champaign IL

“Accurate, fast, and easy to work with. I’ve tried other services, but the quality, turnaround, and pricing from Royal Takeoffs are unmatched. Got detailed cost breakdowns for a custom residential build in Springfield in just 12 hours.”
