Our Story
How Our Exterior Finishes Estimators Help Hackensack Contractors Win More Bids
Hackensack's downtown rezoning brought a wave of five- to eight-story podium apartments, while the Hackensack Meridian medical campus keeps healthcare work steady. We prepare exterior finishes estimates for that full range of work, from county government facilities to smaller jobs in Downtown and Main Street and the Hackensack University Medical Center area.
Facades on Hackensack towers combine curtain wall, metal panels, and rainscreen systems, with access, mock-ups, and complex flashing at every floor. We take off cladding by elevation and system. Bergen County flood requirements affect exterior materials at lower levels, and our takeoffs reflect that.
Our exterior estimators use Bluebeam Revu, PlanSwift, and On-Screen Takeoff to build each Hackensack takeoff, and they read the drawings with the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC) in mind, including weather-resistive barriers, continuous insulation, and fire-rated exterior wall requirements. You receive an Excel workbook and marked-up PDFs, so every exterior finishes number can be checked.
More than 500 contractors nationwide use our exterior finishes and construction estimating services to bid more work with fewer people. For Hackensack firms, that means accurate exterior finishes numbers in 24 to 72 hours, delivered by estimators who understand Bergen County. Labor assumptions for the exterior finishes 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.
