Contractors lose thousands of dollars every year to estimation errors, missed scope items, and wasted time. Here's exactly what we fix.
Our estimating team supports a wide variety of construction projects.
Our Metals Estimating Services provide detailed quantity calculations and cost analysis prepared directly from structural drawings, fabrication details, and project specifications.
Detailed, itemized takeoff reports with quantities, costs and clear breakdown of flowing materials. Here's a preview of that.
Every report includes color-coded marked plans, itemized quantity sheets, and a full cost summary — delivered in Excel and PDF formats, ready to attach directly to your bid submission.
Each Brooklyn estimate includes metal roof and floor decking, bracing and moment connections, stairs and handrails, guardrails and railings, embeds and lintels, miscellaneous and ornamental metals, pre-engineered metal buildings, shear studs, base plates and anchor rods, and fireproofing interface. Tonnage, piece counts, and connections are reported by level. Steel is separated by finish requirement.

Brooklyn ranges from 40-story Downtown towers to 120-year-old brownstones, and Gowanus and the waterfront add flood-resistant construction and environmental cleanup to the scope. Our steel estimators work with steel fabricators, erectors, miscellaneous metals subcontractors, and general contractors across Brooklyn, pricing jobs tied to Downtown Brooklyn residential towers, Gowanus rezoning projects, and brownstone gut renovations.
High-rise steel in Brooklyn is priced by tonnage, piece count, and connection complexity, and our takeoffs deliver all three by level. Near the water in the area, steel finish specifications drive cost, and our takeoffs list galvanized, painted, and stainless items separately.
Projects in Brooklyn are permitted under the NYC Construction Codes, so we follow the code-driven notes on your drawings (connection design, bracing, guardrail heights, and special-inspection requirements) and carry them into the takeoff. 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. Our team uses Tekla Structures, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift to measure and organize every structural steel and metals quantity.
Remote Estimation has prepared estimates on more than 5,000 projects for 500+ contractors, and that experience goes into every Brooklyn structural steel and metals bid we touch. Labor assumptions for the structural steel and metals scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. Union crews and Comptroller prevailing wage rates shape most New York City budgets, so the labor basis matters as much as the quantities. Your first structural steel and metals estimate is 10% off.
We price structural steel and metals work in every part of Brooklyn, from Williamsburg, Park Slope, and Bushwick to Bay Ridge, Downtown Brooklyn, and Greenpoint, plus Gowanus, DUMBO, and Bedford-Stuyvesant. Because estimating is done remotely from your drawings, a job in Greenpoint gets the same turnaround as one in Williamsburg. For rules that apply citywide, see our New York City page.
