About Takeoff CAD Studio
Precise takeoffs and drafting for contractors who bid to win
Takeoff CAD Studio is a US-based construction estimating and AutoCAD drafting service built for residential and commercial contractors who need accurate numbers fast.
What we do
We produce quantity takeoffs, cost estimates, PDF-to-AutoCAD conversions, and shop drawings for contractors, subcontractors, and project managers across the US.
Every deliverable is priced at a fixed rate before work starts — no hourly billing, no surprises. Most single-trade takeoffs are turned around in 24–48 hours.
We work with residential builders, commercial GCs, specialty subcontractors, and suppliers who need bid-ready numbers from their drawings.
Who we work with
Residential contractors
Single-family and multi-family builders who need window, door, framing, or finish takeoffs before submitting bids.
Commercial GCs and subs
General contractors and specialty subcontractors bidding commercial work who need multi-trade estimates and marked-up plans.
Suppliers and fabricators
Window, door, and glazing suppliers who need cut-size takeoffs, shop drawings, or PDF-to-CAD conversions from architect drawings.
Meet Marco
I'm Marco, a US-based construction professional with 5+ years of hands-on experience in construction estimating and AutoCAD drafting on residential and commercial projects.
Day to day I run a building-products company in Newport Beach, California, so I know what contractors need from a takeoff and how bids are won and lost in the real world.
I work in English and Italian, operate in Pacific Time, and use AI tools to speed up the work and catch errors — so you get accurate numbers faster.
