For Manhattan projects, we quantify erosion and sediment control, cut and fill volumes, clearing and grubbing, rough and fine grading, demolition, storm drainage systems, sanitary sewer, water distribution, stormwater management and detention, and asphalt paving. Urban excavation is quantified by soil classification and disposal method. Utility trenches are measured to frost depth.

In Manhattan, logistics are often the biggest cost: delivery windows, crane and hoist time, sidewalk sheds, and occupied-building work all need their own line items. Our sitework estimators work with excavation and earthwork contractors, utility subcontractors, and general contractors across Manhattan, pricing jobs tied to office-to-residential conversions, Hudson Yards and Midtown towers, and façade (FISP) and Local Law 97 work.
Urban Manhattan sites are about haul-off, shoring, and utilities in crowded streets. Our takeoffs separate excavation, export, and street restoration. Utilities in the area have to be buried below the frost line, and our takeoffs carry those depths.
Our sitework estimators use Kubla Cubed, AGTEK, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift to build each Manhattan takeoff, and they read the drawings with the NYC Construction Codes in mind, including stormwater management, erosion control, and utility separation requirements. We also flag New York City-specific costs, including DOB NOW filing requirements, sidewalk sheds, and Local Law 97 energy upgrades where they appear in the scope. You receive an Excel workbook and marked-up PDFs, so every sitework number can be checked.
Contractors in Manhattan use us when bid volume outpaces their in-house team, and so do firms in neighborhoods such as the Financial District and Chelsea. You get a dedicated point of contact, a 24 to 72 hour turnaround, and sitework numbers you can defend at bid review. 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. Your sitework estimate can be built on union, prevailing, or open-shop labor, whichever the bid requires. Email your plan set to info@remoteestimation.us for a fixed sitework quote.
Our Manhattan service area covers neighborhoods such as Midtown, the Financial District, Hudson Yards, Harlem, Chelsea, and the Upper West Side, along with Tribeca, the Upper East Side, and the Lower East Side. Every sitework estimate is prepared remotely, so you can send drawings from the jobsite or the office. Citywide requirements are covered on our New York City page.
