Sitework & Excavation takeoff and estimating

Clearing, excavation, grading, backfill, and erosion control. Cloer measures the plan once and derives sitework & excavation quantities from it, priced against the rates in your own price book.

What gets priced automatically

Each line derives its quantity from the takeoff. The rates below are starting defaults — every one of them is editable in your price book, and yours is what actually gets used.
