For General Contractors, Framing Contractors & Lumber Suppliers
When an Edison bid is due, the lumber and framing numbers have to be right the first time. Remote Estimation delivers lumber takeoff and framing estimating services in Edison, NJ for framing contractors, lumber yards, 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.
Every estimate is prepared from architectural drawings, structural plans, framing layouts, and specifications to provide accurate material quantities and procurement-ready reports.
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.
Here is what we measure on a typical Edison lumber and framing job: engineered wood (LVL, PSL, I-joists), roof trusses, floor trusses, plywood and OSB sheathing, wall plates and studs, headers and beams, blocking and backing, hold-downs and straps, joist hangers and connectors, and fasteners. Energy-code wall assemblies are followed exactly. Lumber packages are organized by plan, elevation, and option. Each lumber and framing line carries its unit of measure and sheet reference, so pricing and verification are straightforward.

Edison's mix of Raritan Center industrial space, Route 1 retail, and steady teardown-and-rebuild homes makes it one of the busiest bid markets in Middlesex County. For framing contractors, lumber yards, and general contractors, that makes accurate lumber and framing quantities on Raritan Center warehouses and distribution and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
Energy-code requirements in Edison often push framing to 2×6 walls, advanced framing, or continuous exterior insulation, which changes stud counts, sheathing, and fasteners. We take off the exact wall system specified. The area's production volume rewards repeatable lumber takeoffs, and we deliver them by plan.
Each takeoff is built in PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and Buildertrend from your current plan set and checked against the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC), including nailing schedules, connector requirements, shear walls, and energy-code wall assemblies. Lumber quantities are organized by area, floor, and system to match how Edison contractors actually bid.
With a 98% bid-hit ratio across more than 5,000 U.S. projects, Remote Estimation gives Edison contractors professional lumber and framing estimating capacity without the cost of an in-house department, and we work the same way for firms in nearby Metuchen and Woodbridge. Labor assumptions for the lumber and framing scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. New Jersey's Prevailing Wage Act covers public works, with rates published by the NJ Department of Labor and Workforce Development, and many redevelopment projects carry the same requirement. Email your plan set to info@remoteestimation.us for a fixed lumber and framing quote.
