As the capital, Albany's work is led by state-agency projects, Albany NanoTech semiconductor research, and medical and university campuses, much of it publicly bid with prevailing wages. That's the market we estimate for every day, building sitework takeoffs for projects from State of New York office modernization to Albany Medical Center expansion.
Utilities in Albany have to be buried below the frost line, and our takeoffs carry those depths. Redevelopment sites in the area come with demolition, old foundations, abandoned utilities, and possible contamination.
Each takeoff is built in Kubla Cubed, AGTEK, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift from your current plan set and checked against the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, including stormwater management, erosion control, and utility separation requirements. Sitework quantities are organized by area, floor, and system to match how Albany contractors actually bid.
Remote Estimation has prepared estimates on more than 5,000 projects for 500+ contractors, and that experience goes into every Albany sitework bid we touch. New York's prevailing wage schedules apply to public work statewide, and certain privately built projects with significant public funding now follow them as well. Your sitework estimate can be built on union, prevailing, or open-shop labor, whichever the bid requires. Send your sitework drawings today for a fixed quote.
