preliminary construction takeoff services for better project planning

Hello everyone, I am new here and I want to ask and share something useful about construction work. When we start a building project, one of the most difficult parts is knowing how much material and cost we need before start. That is why preliminary construction takeoff services can be very helpful. These services help estimate materials and measurements before ordering and planning labor. On RAC Forum I see many topics about owning, fixing, and building things. I think if you use preliminary construction takeoff services early in your project, you can save time and money. You will know how many bricks, wood, steel, and other materials you need before you go to supplier. It makes planning easy and prevents big surprise when work is ongoing. I am from a country where many people still guess material amount and sometimes this cause delay and extra cost. Has anyone here used preliminary construction takeoff services for their project? What was your experience? Please share tips and advice
