Send Us Your Takeoff: Fast Lighting Quotes for Contractors

The fastest way to a sharp lighting and electrical quote is to let us do the legwork. Send Rock Lighting & Electric your plans, fixture schedule, or takeoff, and you get back a contractor-priced quote, with design help, value-engineered alternates, and substitutions for anything sitting on long lead. Here's how it works and what to send.

What you can send

Send whatever defines the job. The more complete it is, the faster and tighter the quote comes back:

  • A fixture and control schedule. The cleanest input. We quote it line for line.
  • Plans or lighting drawings. We'll work from the drawings and build the schedule for you.
  • A bill of materials or parts list. Paste it, attach it, or send a spreadsheet.
  • A competitor's quote. Send it and we'll work to beat it.
  • A rough takeoff, or even a photo of the plan set. We'll tell you what we need to finish it.

What you get back

  • A contractor-priced quote, with better pricing on volume
  • Design help where you need it, including full Lutron system design from your plans
  • Value engineering: equivalent products that hold the spec and meet code at a better price (see value engineering your lighting package)
  • Substitutions when something is back-ordered or long lead, so the job keeps moving
  • Genuine, supported product, because we're an authorized dealer and distributor for the brands we carry

How to get the sharpest quote

A few things help us price it right the first time:

  • Tell us the jurisdiction if code matters, like Title 24
  • Note quantities and any phasing so we price the volume correctly
  • Flag "or equal" allowances if value engineering is on the table
  • Tell us your timeline so we can lean on in-stock and fast-ship items
  • Include rebate goals (DLC) if they affect the package

Send it over

Email or upload your plans, schedule, takeoff, or parts list and we'll get you a quote. Contact us to start, browse the Lutron collection, or read why contractors buy lighting from Rock.

FAQ

What should I send to get a lighting quote?
A fixture and control schedule is ideal, but plans, a bill of materials, a rough takeoff, or even a competitor's quote all work. The more detail, the faster and tighter the quote.
Can you quote straight from my plans?
Yes. Send the drawings and we'll build the schedule and quote it, and design the Lutron controls from the plans if the job needs them.
Will you match or beat another quote?
Send us the competing quote and we'll work to beat it. We price to win contractor business.
Do you offer substitutions if something is out of stock?
Yes. If an item is back-ordered or on long lead, we'll offer an in-stock equivalent that holds the spec so your schedule doesn't slip.
Is the pricing contractor pricing?
Yes. We quote at contractor pricing, with better pricing on volume and repeat orders.
Do you ship nationwide?
Yes. We carry deep inventory and ship across the country.
