Our Story
Drywall Takeoff & Estimating Built for New Rochelle Contractors
New Rochelle's downtown rezoning made it one of the region's top high-rise markets outside NYC, with dozens of towers in progress near the Metro-North station. For drywall contractors, framing and acoustical subcontractors, and general contractors, that makes accurate drywall quantities on downtown high-rise residential under the city's master development plan and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
New Rochelle's coastal humidity and flood exposure often lead to mold-resistant and moisture-resistant boards, with flood-damage-resistant materials below design flood elevation. We list board types by area so material pricing is accurate. Drywall in the area towers is mostly rated assemblies: shaft walls at elevators and stairs, two-hour corridor walls, demising walls with sound ratings, and head-of-wall firestopping.
Our drywall estimators use Bluebeam Revu, PlanSwift, and On-Screen Takeoff to build each New Rochelle 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.
More than 500 contractors nationwide use our drywall and construction estimating services to bid more work with fewer people. For New Rochelle firms, that means accurate drywall numbers in 24 to 72 hours, delivered by estimators who understand Westchester County. On public work in New York, rates come from the State Department of Labor's prevailing wage schedules, and some privately built projects with significant public funding now fall under them too. Your drywall estimate can be built on union, prevailing, or open-shop labor, whichever the bid requires. Request a quote today, and your first estimate comes with 10% off.
