More Shots. More Wins.
Concrete companies don't lose jobs because they can't pour.
They lose because they don't bid enough.
The team that takes more shots usually wins the game.
Concrete is no different.
If you're only getting a few bids out each week, your growth is capped.
If you can consistently get multiple bids out per day — your odds change dramatically.
Concrete Takeoff exists for one reason:
To increase your shots on goal without sacrificing accuracy.
Built by a Concrete Contractor — For Concrete Contractors
Concrete Takeoff wasn't created by software developers or offshore estimators.
It was built by a contractor who lived the problem.
You're on-site all day managing crews, solving problems, keeping jobs moving.
Then at night, you're staring at plans trying to get accurate numbers out the door.
Something always suffers:
- • The estimate gets rushed
- • The jobsite doesn't get full attention
- • Or the bid never goes out at all
That cycle keeps most small and mid-size concrete companies stuck.
I know — because I lived it.
Meet the Founder
Michael Bumgarner
Founder, Concrete Takeoff, LLC · Owner, Concrete Flatwork Business
I didn't grow up in concrete. I didn't inherit a family business.
I built my concrete company from the ground up — starting with zero industry knowledge.
Within two years, we were regularly closing high dollar residential work and six figure commercial projects.
Not because I was the best finisher on site.
Because I became more efficient at the takeoff process and got more shots on goal.
I learned quickly that one of the key elements to winning jobs is simple:
Bid more work.
When I stopped treating takeoffs like an after-hours task and built a repeatable system, everything changed.
- • More bids out the door.
- • More conversations with GCs.
- • More awarded contracts.
- • More revenue.
You don't win because you're the cheapest.
You win because you're in the game more often.
That system is now Concrete Takeoff.
The System That Changes Everything
Most estimating services don't understand what actually happens in the field.
We do.
Because we pour concrete.
We understand:
- • How slabs are built
- • How reinforcement is placed
- • Where production slows
- • What gets missed on rushed takeoffs
- • What actually costs money
Every takeoff is built through a field-first lens.
- • No bloated reports.
- • No unnecessary fluff.
- • No generic templates.
Just clean, organized, bid-ready quantities you can plug directly into your pricing.
What Changes When You Stop Doing Your Own Takeoffs?
Before
- • Estimating nights and weekends
- • Missed deadlines
- • Rushed reinforcement counts
- • Inconsistent margins
- • Limited growth
After
- • 2–4 day turnaround
- • Clean quantity reports
- • Multiple bids submitted per day when needed
- • Consistent numbers
- • Scalable growth
You stay focused on running crews and closing work. We handle the heavy lift.
