For General Contractors, Sitework Contractors & Land Developers
Projects in Downtown Brooklyn, Flushing, and across all five boroughs move quickly, and so does our team. We provide sitework estimating services in New York City, NY, giving excavation and earthwork contractors, utility subcontractors, and general contractors itemized sitework takeoffs and cost estimates in 24 to 72 hours without adding estimating staff.
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 Sitework Estimating Services provide contractors with detailed quantity measurements and cost analysis prepared directly from civil plans, grading plans, utility layouts, and project specifications.
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.
Our New York City sitework takeoff covers concrete curbs and sidewalks, erosion and sediment control, cut and fill volumes, clearing and grubbing, rough and fine grading, demolition, storm drainage systems, sanitary sewer, water distribution, and stormwater management and detention. Urban excavation is quantified by soil classification and disposal method. Utility trenches are measured to frost depth. Every sitework item is reported with exact counts, linear footage, square footage, or volume, cross-referenced to your drawing sheets and schedules.

New York City projects carry costs that don't exist elsewhere, including hoisting, sidewalk sheds, DOB filings, union labor rates, and Local Law 97 compliance, so national averages don't work for pricing here. For excavation and earthwork contractors, utility subcontractors, and general contractors, that makes accurate sitework quantities on high-rise residential and office-to-residential conversions and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
Sitework for New York City's dense urban projects means deep excavation, support of excavation, dewatering, contaminated soil handling, and tight trucking logistics. We quantify excavation by soil type and disposal method. The area's frost depth sets utility burial depths, and winter earthwork may require frost removal and thawing.
Projects in New York City are permitted under the NYC Construction Codes, so we follow the code-driven notes on your drawings (stormwater management, erosion control, and utility separation requirements) and carry them into the takeoff. Where the scope involves DOB NOW filings, sidewalk sheds, or Local Law 97 compliance, those costs are flagged so they are not missed at bid time. Our team uses Kubla Cubed, AGTEK, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift to measure and organize every sitework quantity.
Hiring an in-house sitework estimator is expensive, and missing a bid deadline is worse. Our remote team covers New York City with fast, itemized sitework estimates and a 98% bid-hit ratio, and we serve all five boroughs, including Queens and the Bronx as well. We can price sitework labor at union, prevailing-wage, or open-shop rates. 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. Upload your plans for a quote within one hour, and get 10% off your first estimate.
Our New York City sitework estimators work across all five boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Citywide rules (the NYC Construction Codes, DOB NOW filings, Local Law 97, and union labor) apply everywhere, and each borough adds its own building stock, from Manhattan towers to Staten Island one- and two-family homes. For borough-specific detail, see our Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, and Staten Island pages.
