New Houzz Pro Takeoffs Tool Helps Builders Create Fast Estimates

Perform takeoffs and produce detailed estimates faster and quote for more jobs with ConX-acquired takeoff software

Houzz has launched a takeoff software and construction estimating tool that is fully integrated into Houzz Pro, the all-in-one business management and marketing software. Houzz Pro Takeoffs helps builders, renovators and speciality contractors save time and quote for jobs up to 10 times faster.

The software tool eliminates pen and paper and allows pros to complete on-screen takeoffs from uploaded construction plans and transform them into winning estimates within minutes. “By providing an easy-to-use on-screen takeoff tool as part of Houzz Pro, we’re helping pros to efficiently manage and grow their businesses and spend less time on back-office work,” says Alon Cohen, Houzz co-founder and president.
The new Houzz Pro offering is made possible by Houzz’s acquisition of ConX, a SaaS takeoff and estimating tool. Houzz Pro subscribers have immediate access to the takeoff tool, which is now built into Houzz Pro software. “We’re excited to bring the power of ConX’s takeoff tool to contractors using Houzz Pro and to welcome ConX’s customers around the world to the Houzz community,” Cohen says.

Using Houzz Pro Takeoffs, building professionals can complete takeoffs and estimates faster, win more projects and streamline project workflows. The new tool joins robust Houzz Pro features such as Teams and the 3D Floor Planner to enable pros to do more than ever.

“It’s incredibly exciting to see ConX’s tools built into the end-to-end Houzz Pro offering, helping contractors around the world run efficient, profitable businesses,” says Annie Slattery, ConX co-founder and CEO. “We’re thrilled to join forces with Houzz in their mission to create the best software for construction and design.”

Read on to learn how Houzz Pro Takeoffs works.
Upload construction plans and measure the area of any space
After uploading project plans into Houzz Pro Takeoffs, pros can quickly click and drag to accurately measure the area or perimeter of any room or space.

Learn about Houzz Pro all-in-one business software.
Add dimensions to measurements
Pros can add height, depth or pitch to existing measurements if needed for specific applications, such as building foundations, wall coverings and roof areas.
Mark and count items on the plan
The software tool allows contractors to count important material quantities needed for an estimate, such as doors, outlets and downlights.
Complete a takeoff and create a detailed estimate
Once all materials, quantities and dimensions are present, pros can create groups to bring multiple measurements together and auto-calculate the amount of materials needed for the project.

Houzz Pro Takeoffs can then quickly calculate complex total labour and material costs, using prices provided by the pro, and produce a detailed estimate.
Share branded estimates with potential clients
Professional estimates with the builder’s logo, letterhead and any other information for clients or the project team are generated each time you use the tool.

Takeoffs is available to Houzz Pro Essential and Ultimate subscribers and can be accessed online or through the Houzz Pro app.
