Insulation Takeoff Services: Thermal and Acoustic Scopes, Measured Where They Belong

Batt, mineral wool, rigid and sound attenuation insulation quantified by R-value, thickness and location, so your bid carries exactly what the wall types call for - no more, no less.

Insulation Is Two Scopes, Not One

Thermal insulation and acoustic insulation live on different walls, carry different products and get installed on different schedules. A takeoff that lumps them into one square-foot number sets you up to over-buy on one and short the other. Our insulation estimating services keep them separate: thermal batts at the exterior envelope and furring, sound attenuation batts at demising walls, offices, restrooms and bedrooms, mineral wool where the rated assemblies require it.

  • Fiberglass batts by R-value: R-11, R-13, R-15, R-19, R-21, R-30, R-38
  • Sound attenuation batts (SAB) at interior partitions per wall type
  • Mineral wool at rated assemblies and shaft walls
  • Rigid board: XPS, EPS, polyiso and Z-furring insulation
  • Faced vs unfaced called out per assembly and code requirement
  • Widths matched to framing: 16" and 24" o.c. cavities
  • Acoustical sealant and putty pads where the details show them
  • Ceiling and lid batts over hard lids and corridor caps

Read From the Wall Types, Not Painted Across the Plan

The most common insulation estimating mistake is blanket coverage: assuming every partition gets batts because some do. We take insulation from the partition schedule and the details, wall by wall. Where the drawings are silent but the spec section requires sound batts at specific room types, we flag the conflict in writing so you can carry it as a clarification instead of a surprise.

Who Uses This Service

Drywall subcontractors who carry insulation in their package. Dedicated insulation contractors bidding the scope standalone. GCs checking whether the numbers they received cover the drawings. Whoever you are, the deliverable is the same: quantities by product, R-value and location, in Excel, PDF or CSV, inside 24 to 48 hours, with free revisions within 48 hours of delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you take off spray foam and blown-in insulation?

Yes, where the documents specify them. Spray foam is quantified by area and specified thickness, blown-in by area and R-value, each on separate lines from batt scopes.

Can you split the insulation scope out of a full drywall takeoff?

Yes. If you sub the insulation out or bid it separately, we issue it as a standalone package matching the same wall-type breakdown as the rest of the job.

Do you include vapor barriers and retarders?

Where the details or specs call for poly, smart membranes or facings acting as the vapor retarder, they are measured and listed as their own items.
