For General Contractors, Sitework Contractors & Land Developers
When a Brooklyn bid is due, the sitework numbers have to be right the first time. Remote Estimation delivers sitework estimating services in Brooklyn, NY for excavation and earthwork contractors, utility subcontractors, and general contractors, with quantities measured from your drawings, priced in Excel, and backed by a 98% bid-hit ratio.
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 Sitework Estimating Services provide contractors with detailed quantity measurements and cost analysis prepared directly from civil plans, grading plans, utility layouts, 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.
For Brooklyn projects, we quantify aggregate base, concrete curbs and sidewalks, erosion and sediment control, cut and fill volumes, clearing and grubbing, rough and fine grading, demolition, storm drainage systems, sanitary sewer, and water distribution. Urban excavation is quantified by soil classification and disposal method. Utility trenches are measured to frost depth. Sitework quantities are organized in Excel by area and system, with waste factors and units clearly stated.

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. Whether you're bidding Gowanus rezoning projects or brownstone gut renovations, our sitework estimators build quantities from your drawings, not from rules of thumb.
Sitework for Brooklyn's dense urban projects means deep excavation, support of excavation, dewatering, contaminated soil handling, and tight trucking logistics. We quantify excavation by soil type and disposal method. Utilities in the area have to be buried below the frost line, and our takeoffs carry those depths.
Each takeoff is built in Kubla Cubed, AGTEK, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift from your current plan set and checked against the NYC Construction Codes, including stormwater management, erosion control, and utility separation 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. Sitework 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 sitework bid we touch. We can price sitework 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. Request a quote today, and your first estimate comes with 10% off.
We price sitework 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.
