Rebar Estimating and Takeoff Services

Rebar Estimating

The City Rebar prepares reinforcing steel estimates for contractors, fabricators and owners who need reliable quantities before they bid or buy. We have been estimating rebar since 1992, using aSa software and CRSI estimating guidelines, on projects from one ton to 25,000 tons.

What we estimate

  • Reinforcing steel quantity takeoffs and estimates from your drawings and specifications
  • Change-order estimates when the design or scope shifts mid-project
  • Concrete quantity estimates and concrete change orders
  • Independent quantity reviews, when two parties need a neutral check of rebar quantities and changes



Why the independent review matters

Disputes over rebar quantities usually come down to what changed and when. We review the documents and report quantities without taking either side.

Built for bid deadlines

Tell us your bid date when you send the drawings. We handle emergency estimates, with delivery in a few days when the schedule demands it.
