Our Story
Drywall Takeoff & Estimating Built for Melville Contractors
Melville is Long Island's largest office market, and much of that Route 110 space is being converted to medical, lab, and residential use, a complicated scope that rewards careful takeoffs. We prepare drywall estimates for that full range of work, from multifamily on former office sites to smaller jobs in the Route 110 corridor and the Broadhollow Road office parks.
On cold-climate Melville projects, exterior walls often include more insulation and vapor control, and our takeoffs carry those with the drywall. With heavy production and multifamily volume in the area, we organize drywall takeoffs by unit type and building.
Our drywall estimators use Bluebeam Revu, PlanSwift, and On-Screen Takeoff to build each Melville takeoff, and they read the drawings with the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code in mind, including fire-rated and sound-rated assemblies, shaft walls, and firestopping. You receive an Excel workbook and marked-up PDFs, so every drywall number can be checked.
With a 98% bid-hit ratio across more than 5,000 U.S. projects, Remote Estimation gives Melville contractors professional drywall estimating capacity without the cost of an in-house department, and we work the same way for firms in nearby Huntington and Farmingdale. Prevailing wage rates for public work in New York State come from the Department of Labor, organized by county and trade. Your drywall estimate can be built on union, prevailing, or open-shop labor, whichever the bid requires. Share your plans and scope, and we'll send a fixed quote within an hour.
