Hicksville is one of the busiest LIRR hubs on Long Island, and the town's downtown revitalization plan is bringing transit-oriented apartments and commercial infill. We prepare lumber and framing estimates for that full range of work, from retail redevelopment to smaller jobs in the Hicksville LIRR station area and Broadway Mall area.
Energy-code requirements in Hicksville 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. Renovation framing in the area is labor-heavy, so our takeoffs separate structural repairs, new openings, and additions.
Our framing estimators use PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and Buildertrend to build each Hicksville takeoff, and they read the drawings with the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code in mind, including nailing schedules, connector requirements, shear walls, and energy-code wall assemblies. You receive an Excel workbook and marked-up PDFs, so every lumber and framing number can be checked.
With a 98% bid-hit ratio across more than 5,000 U.S. projects, Remote Estimation gives Hicksville 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 Jericho and Levittown. We can price lumber and framing 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. Send your lumber and framing drawings today for a fixed quote.
