Our Story
How Our Commercial Estimators Help Brick Contractors Win More Bids
Brick's lagoon neighborhoods and barrier-island beaches keep elevation, piling, and renovation work moving, alongside retail along Routes 70 and 88. We prepare commercial construction estimates for that full range of work, from whole-house renovations to smaller jobs in Brick Beach and the Route 70 corridor.
Near the water in Brick, building envelope and MEP elevation requirements change commercial budgets, and our estimates show those costs clearly. Floodplain rules in Ocean County can add elevated slabs, dry or wet floodproofing, flood barriers, and relocated MEP equipment. New Jersey's Inland Flood Protection Rule raised design flood elevations in regulated areas, so we check elevations against current NJDEP requirements on the drawings.
Code requirements change quantities, so our commercial estimators review every Brick drawing set against the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC), paying attention to accessibility, life-safety, fire protection, and energy-code requirements. The takeoff is built in Bluebeam Revu, PlanSwift, and RSMeans Cost Data and delivered as an Excel workbook with color-coded, marked-up plans.
With a 98% bid-hit ratio across more than 5,000 U.S. projects, Remote Estimation gives Brick contractors professional commercial construction estimating capacity without the cost of an in-house department, and we work the same way for firms in nearby Toms River and Point Pleasant. We can price commercial construction labor at union, prevailing-wage, or open-shop rates. New Jersey's Prevailing Wage Act covers public works, with rates published by the NJ Department of Labor and Workforce Development, and many redevelopment projects carry the same requirement. Your first commercial construction estimate is 10% off.
