For General Contractors, Steel Contractors & Subcontractors
When a Jersey City bid is due, the structural steel and metals numbers have to be right the first time. Remote Estimation delivers metals and structural steel estimating services in Jersey City, NJ for steel fabricators, erectors, miscellaneous metals subcontractors, and general contractors, with quantities measured from your drawings, priced in Excel, and backed by a 98% bid-hit ratio.
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.
Our Metals Estimating Services provide detailed quantity calculations and cost analysis prepared directly from structural drawings, fabrication details, and project specifications.
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.
A Jersey City structural steel and metals takeoff from our team lists base plates and anchor rods, fireproofing interface, structural steel beams and columns, steel joists and joist girders, metal roof and floor decking, bracing and moment connections, stairs and handrails, guardrails and railings, embeds and lintels, and miscellaneous and ornamental metals. Tonnage, piece counts, and connections are reported by level. Renovation steel is itemized piece by piece. Quantities are grouped the way your structural steel and metals crews install the work, which makes pricing labor as easy as pricing material.

Jersey City is home base for Remote Estimation — our office is on Wayne Street — so we know how Hudson County podium towers, tight Downtown laydown space, and flood-zone requirements change a bid. We prepare structural steel and metals estimates for that full range of work, from brownstone and rowhouse renovations to smaller jobs in Downtown and Paulus Hook and Journal Square.
Steel for Jersey City high-rises is heavy and connection-intensive: column splices, moment connections, transfer girders, composite deck with shear studs, and complex miscellaneous metals. We calculate tonnage by member and count connections and studs. The area's older buildings often need steel reinforcement for new uses, and we quantify it.
Under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC), small details add up: connection design, bracing, guardrail heights, and special-inspection requirements. We catch them during the structural steel and metals takeoff instead of after the award. Measurements are done in Tekla Structures, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift and summarized in Excel for your Jersey City bid.
Contractors in Jersey City use us when bid volume outpaces their in-house team, and so do firms in nearby Bayonne and Weehawken. You get a dedicated point of contact, a 24 to 72 hour turnaround, and structural steel and metals numbers you can defend at bid review. In New Jersey, NJDOL publishes the prevailing wage rates used on public works and many publicly assisted redevelopment jobs. Your structural steel and metals estimate can be built on union, prevailing, or open-shop labor, whichever the bid requires. Send your structural steel and metals drawings today for a fixed quote.
