ScopeTakeoff’s masonry estimating programs include pre-built assembly libraries for every major masonry scope. The fastest masonry takeoff software for subcontractors — enter wall dimensions and get unit counts, mortar volumes, grout fill, and labor costs automatically.
CMU Block Walls
Standard, lightweight, and heavyweight CMU in 4″, 6″, 8″, 10″, and 12″ widths. Enter SF and ScopeTakeoff calculates block count, mortar volume, grout fill by core spacing, ties, and labor hours.
Brick Veneer & Full Brick
Standard, modular, and oversized brick in running, stack, and Flemish bond. Unit count, mortar volume, wall ties, and control joints calculated from SF input. Scaffolding cost included.
Stone Veneer
Natural and manufactured stone veneer by SF. Mortar setting bed, scratch coat, and grout joint calculations included. Supports fieldstone, ledgestone, ashlar, and cut stone profiles.
Interior Masonry Takeoff
Interior CMU partition walls, shaft walls, and stairwell enclosures. Separate labor rates for interior vs. exterior work, plus accessory items — control joints, lintels, and bond beams.
Masonry Restoration & Tuckpointing
Masonry restoration estimating for repointing, tuckpointing, crack repair, and cleaning. Price by SF or LF. Separate labor rates for high-access and scaffolding work built into the assembly.
Bond Beams, Lintels & Accessories
Bond beam courses, precast and CMU lintels, pilasters, and column reinforcement. Calculated as standalone line items or added automatically to CMU wall assemblies based on opening count.

ScopeTakeoff’s masonry takeoff software is built around how masonry contractors actually estimate — measure walls, select assemblies, get a priced bid. No more counting blocks by hand off a plan sheet.

How ScopeTakeoff compares to other masonry estimating software

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Masonry-specific assemblies | ✓ CMU, brick, stone, restoration | ✗ Generic only | ✓ Partial | ✗ Manual |

| Mortar & grout auto-calc | ✓ Volume calculated automatically | ✗ No | ✓ Partial | ✗ Manual |
| Interior masonry takeoff | ✓ Separate interior rates | ✗ No | ✗ No | ✗ Manual |
| SOV output for GC submission | ✓ One click | Partial | ✗ No | ✗ Manual |

What masonry subs say about ScopeTakeoff
“The masonry assembly library is worth every penny. I used to count every block by hand off the plans. Now I enter the wall dimensions and get block count, mortar, grout, everything. Takes 18 minutes instead of 3 hours.”
“We do a lot of commercial CMU work for big box GCs. The SOV output is exactly what they want — no reformatting, no calls asking us to resubmit. Saves us an hour per bid easily.”
“The restoration assemblies are legit. Tuckpointing, repointing, crack repair — all in there with separate rates for high-access work. We’ve never had masonry estimating software that actually understood restoration scopes.”
