Our estimating team supports a wide variety of construction projects.
Our Residential Construction Estimating Services provide complete quantity takeoffs and cost analysis across every major trade involved in residential construction projects.
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.
A Brooklyn residential construction takeoff from our team lists painting, site improvements, earthwork and foundations, framing and lumber, roofing, windows and doors, exterior finishes, insulation, drywall, and flooring. Remodels separate demolition, repairs, and new work. Elevation, wind, and flood costs are broken out. Quantities are grouped the way your residential construction crews install the work, which makes pricing labor as easy as pricing material.

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. We prepare residential construction estimates for that full range of work, from brownstone gut renovations to smaller jobs in Gowanus and DUMBO.
Renovation is the core of Brooklyn's residential market: kitchens, baths, additions, and whole-house updates of older homes. We price demolition, repairs, and new work trade by trade. Coastal homes in the area require elevated foundations, wind-rated windows and roofing, corrosion-resistant hardware, and flood-resistant materials.
Each takeoff is built in PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and Buildertrend from your current plan set and checked against the NYC Construction Codes, including energy-code envelope, egress, smoke-alarm, and structural requirements. New York City costs such as DOB NOW filings, sidewalk sheds, hoisting, and Local Law 97 upgrades are called out separately when they apply. Residential quantities are organized by area, floor, and system to match how Brooklyn contractors actually bid.
Remote Estimation has prepared estimates on more than 5,000 projects for 500+ contractors, and that experience goes into every Brooklyn residential construction bid we touch. Labor assumptions for the residential construction scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. 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. Upload your plans for a quote within one hour, and get 10% off your first estimate.
