Take-offs & estimating
Plasterboard take-offs
Fixers, stoppers and suppliers use our plasterboard take-offs to price linings quickly: wall and ceiling areas room by room, sheet counts, and the wet-area, fire-rated and bracing boards called up on the plans.
- Price
- From NZ$250 per project, excl. GST
- Turnaround
- 2 to 3 working days for most homes

Boards we list separately
- Standard wall and ceiling board
- Wet-area board for bathrooms and laundries
- Fire-rated board for garages and inter-tenancy walls
- Bracing elements from the bracing plan
- Ceiling battens and cornice
Room by room
We measure each room from the plans and sections, net of openings, so you can price a whole house or only the areas in your contract. Ceiling heights and raking ceilings come from the sections.
Questions we are asked
Do you include stopping?
Yes. We list stopping lengths and areas so you can price fixing and stopping separately.
