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.

A Long Island City structural steel and metals takeoff from our team lists stairs and handrails, guardrails and railings, embeds and lintels, miscellaneous and ornamental metals, pre-engineered metal buildings, shear studs, base plates and anchor rods, fireproofing interface, structural steel beams and columns, and steel joists and joist girders. Steel is separated by finish requirement. Tonnage, piece counts, and connections are reported by level. Quantities are grouped the way your structural steel and metals crews install the work, which makes pricing labor as easy as pricing material.

Long Island City added more housing towers than almost any other New York neighborhood, while Dutch Kills and the waterfront keep converting industrial lots into studios, labs, and offices. We prepare structural steel and metals estimates for that full range of work, from industrial-to-office conversions to smaller jobs in the Anable Basin waterfront and the Jackson Avenue corridor.
Coastal steel around Long Island City needs galvanizing, high-performance coatings, or stainless steel to resist corrosion. We separate finish requirements by member. Steel for local high-rises is heavy and connection-intensive: column splices, moment connections, transfer girders, composite deck with shear studs, and complex miscellaneous metals.
Under the NYC Construction Codes, 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. New York City costs such as DOB NOW filings, sidewalk sheds, hoisting, and Local Law 97 upgrades are called out separately when they apply. Measurements are done in Tekla Structures, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift and summarized in Excel for your Long Island City bid.
Contractors in Long Island City use us when bid volume outpaces their in-house team, and so do firms in neighborhoods such as Court Square and Ravenswood. 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. Labor assumptions for the structural steel and metals scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. City-funded work in the five boroughs is priced at the NYC Comptroller's prevailing wage schedules, and much private work here is built with union crews. Share your plans and scope, and we'll send a fixed quote within an hour.
