Our Story
Exterior Finishes Takeoff & Estimating Built for Garden City Contractors
Garden City work is mostly high-finish residential renovation, Franklin Avenue offices, and the commercial district around Roosevelt Field, where finish standards are high. Whether you're bidding high-end residential renovations or Franklin Avenue medical and office space, our exterior estimators build quantities from your drawings, not from rules of thumb.
Cold-climate walls in Garden City use exterior insulation and air barriers, and our takeoffs carry both. Local facade renovations include removal, substrate repair, and new cladding, each of which we take off.
Code requirements change quantities, so our exterior estimators review every Garden City drawing set against the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, paying attention to weather-resistive barriers, continuous insulation, and fire-rated exterior wall requirements. The takeoff is built in Bluebeam Revu, PlanSwift, and On-Screen Takeoff and delivered as an Excel workbook with color-coded, marked-up plans.
With a 98% bid-hit ratio across more than 5,000 U.S. projects, Remote Estimation gives Garden City contractors professional exterior finishes estimating capacity without the cost of an in-house department, and we work the same way for firms in nearby Hempstead and Mineola. We can price exterior finishes labor at union, prevailing-wage, or open-shop rates. Prevailing wage rates for public work in New York State come from the Department of Labor, organized by county and trade. Share your plans and scope, and we'll send a fixed quote within an hour.
