Our Story
Masonry Takeoff & Estimating Built for Islip Contractors
The Town of Islip covers MacArthur Airport, Central Islip's institutional campus, and Great South Bay waterfront neighborhoods, so commercial, civic, and coastal residential work all appear. For masonry contractors, stone and brick subcontractors, and general contractors, that makes accurate masonry quantities on Long Island MacArthur Airport projects and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
Near the water in Islip, masonry accessories are often upgraded to stainless steel, and we list them. Suffolk County flood design adds flood vents to masonry foundation walls, and our takeoffs count them.
Under the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, small details add up: reinforcing, tie spacing, flashing, and fire-wall requirements. We catch them during the masonry takeoff instead of after the award. Measurements are done in Tradesmen's Software, PlanSwift, and Bluebeam Revu and summarized in Excel for your Islip bid.
Contractors in Islip use us when bid volume outpaces their in-house team, and so do firms in nearby Central Islip and Sayville. You get a dedicated point of contact, a 24 to 72 hour turnaround, and masonry numbers you can defend at bid review. On public work in New York, rates come from the State Department of Labor's prevailing wage schedules, and some privately built projects with significant public funding now fall under them too. Your masonry estimate can be built on union, prevailing, or open-shop labor, whichever the bid requires. Get a fixed quote for your next Islip bid within about an hour.
