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.
Each Fort Lee estimate includes dimensional lumber, 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, and joist hangers and connectors. Podium framing includes rod tie-down systems and shear-wall schedules by floor. Energy-code wall assemblies are followed exactly. You get itemized lumber and framing counts and measurements tied to sheet numbers, so your team can verify any line in minutes.

Fort Lee's Palisades setting at the George Washington Bridge supports Bergen County's tallest residential towers, with rock excavation and high-rise logistics in most bids. For framing contractors, lumber yards, and general contractors, that makes accurate lumber and framing quantities on high-rise residential towers and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
Wood framing in Fort Lee's denser areas usually means four to five stories of wood over a concrete podium. These buildings use stacked shear walls, continuous rod tie-downs, shrinkage-compensation devices, and fire-rated assemblies. We count each one, along with studs, plates, and sheathing. Energy-code requirements in the area often push framing to 2×6 walls, advanced framing, or continuous exterior insulation, which changes stud counts, sheathing, and fasteners.
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 Fort Lee contractors actually bid.
Contractors in Fort Lee use us when bid volume outpaces their in-house team, and so do firms in nearby Cliffside Park and Palisades Park. You get a dedicated point of contact, a 24 to 72 hour turnaround, and lumber and framing numbers you can defend at bid review. 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.
