Our Story
How Our Painting Estimators Help Bronx Contractors Win More Bids
The Bronx leads the city in new affordable housing, so HPD-financed multifamily, prevailing-wage requirements, and Hunts Point industrial work make up much of its bid volume. That's the market we estimate for every day, building painting takeoffs for projects from affordable housing developments to hospital campus upgrades.
High-rise painting in Bronx involves access costs and repetition. Our takeoffs give square footage by floor and unit type. Painting older local buildings often involves lead-safe work practices, extensive preparation, and historic colors.
Each takeoff is built in PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and On-Screen Takeoff from your current plan set and checked against the NYC Construction Codes, including VOC limits, fire-rated coatings, and lead-safe work practices. Where the scope involves DOB NOW filings, sidewalk sheds, or Local Law 97 compliance, those costs are flagged so they are not missed at bid time. Painting quantities are organized by area, floor, and system to match how Bronx contractors actually bid.
Remote Estimation has prepared estimates on more than 5,000 projects for 500+ contractors, and that experience goes into every Bronx painting bid we touch. We can price painting labor at union, prevailing-wage, or open-shop rates. City-funded work in the five boroughs is priced at the NYC Comptroller's prevailing wage schedules, and much private work here is built with union crews. Your first painting estimate is 10% off.
