What’s in a Bill of Quantities? A Simple Guide for Subbies
May 02, 2025What’s in a Bill of Quantities? A Simple Guide for Subbies
A Bill of Quantities (BOQ) is like a shopping list for a construction job. It details all the work that needs to be done and the exact materials needed. For tradies and subcontractors, it’s essential.
At Construction Estimate, every project includes a detailed BOQ that breaks down the entire scope of works. From cubic metres of excavation to the number and size of trees to be planted, it’s all there.
Why does it matter?
Because quoting off vague plans or a rushed phone call is a recipe for underquoting or getting stung with extras later. With a BOQ, there’s no confusion about what's included or missed.
If you’re not using BOQs already, it’s time to start. And if you want them prepared for you, join Construction Estimate.
