A Buffalo masonry takeoff from our team lists reinforcing steel in masonry, joint reinforcement, wall ties and anchors, flashing and weeps, lintels and bond beams, control and expansion joints, glass block, scaffolding and access, concrete masonry units (CMU), and brick veneer. Restoration is measured by elevation and repair type. Cold-weather protection is listed separately. Quantities are grouped the way your masonry crews install the work, which makes pricing labor as easy as pricing material.

Buffalo's lake-effect snow loads and its supply of century-old industrial buildings make structural capacity and existing-conditions pricing central to most bids. For masonry contractors, stone and brick subcontractors, and general contractors, that makes accurate masonry quantities on Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
Masonry restoration is a large market in Buffalo: repointing, brick replacement, lintel repair, and facade work. We quantify restoration by elevation. Cold-weather masonry in the area requires enclosures and heat, which we note separately.
Code requirements change quantities, so our masonry estimators review every Buffalo drawing set against the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, paying attention to reinforcing, tie spacing, flashing, and fire-wall requirements. The takeoff is built in Tradesmen's Software, PlanSwift, and Bluebeam Revu and delivered as an Excel workbook with color-coded, marked-up plans.
Hiring an in-house masonry estimator is expensive, and missing a bid deadline is worse. Our remote team covers Buffalo with fast, itemized masonry estimates and a 98% bid-hit ratio, and we serve nearby Tonawanda and Niagara Falls as well. Labor assumptions for the masonry scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. Prevailing wage rates for public work in New York State come from the Department of Labor, organized by county and trade. Your first masonry estimate is 10% off.
Our Buffalo service area includes Downtown Buffalo, the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, and the Elmwood Village, plus neighboring communities such as Cheektowaga, Amherst, Tonawanda, Niagara Falls, Lackawanna, and Orchard Park.
