For General Contractors, Framing Contractors & Lumber Suppliers
Contractors bidding work tied to rapid multifamily and townhouse growth need numbers they can defend. Remote Estimation provides lumber takeoff and framing estimating services in Lakewood, NJ, turning your drawings into itemized lumber and framing quantities and cost estimates for framing contractors, lumber yards, and general contractors, usually within 24 to 72 hours.
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.
Every estimate is prepared from architectural drawings, structural plans, framing layouts, and specifications to provide accurate material quantities and procurement-ready reports.
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.
Here is what we measure on a typical Lakewood lumber and framing job: engineered wood (LVL, PSL, I-joists), roof trusses, floor trusses, plywood and OSB sheathing, wall plates and studs, headers and beams, blocking and backing, hold-downs and straps, joist hangers and connectors, and fasteners. Energy-code wall assemblies are followed exactly. Lumber packages are organized by plan, elevation, and option. Each lumber and framing line carries its unit of measure and sheet reference, so pricing and verification are straightforward.

Lakewood is one of New Jersey's fastest-growing towns, and its pace of townhouses, two-family homes, schools, and industrial-park buildings means builders bid constantly. Whether you're bidding Lakewood Industrial Park or school and institutional facilities, our framing estimators build quantities from your drawings, not from rules of thumb.
Cold-climate walls in Lakewood use deeper studs and exterior insulation, so our lumber takeoffs follow the specified assembly. Lumber yards and framers in the area price the same plans again and again.
Our framing estimators use PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and Buildertrend to build each Lakewood takeoff, and they read the drawings with the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC) 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.
Contractors in Lakewood use us when bid volume outpaces their in-house team, and so do firms in nearby Howell and Point Pleasant. You get a dedicated point of contact, a 24 to 72 hour turnaround, and lumber and framing numbers you can defend at bid review. Labor assumptions for the lumber and framing scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. In New Jersey, NJDOL publishes the prevailing wage rates used on public works and many publicly assisted redevelopment jobs.
