Our Story
Masonry Takeoff & Estimating Built for Paramus Contractors
Paramus is the retail capital of North Jersey, so tenant fit-outs, mall repositioning, and medical-office conversions along Routes 4 and 17 drive most commercial bids. Whether you're bidding medical office buildings or restaurant and pad-site construction, our masonry estimators build quantities from your drawings, not from rules of thumb.
Paramus's older brick buildings need repointing and repair, and our takeoffs measure them by elevation and type. The area's winters affect masonry through cold-weather protection, heated enclosures, and freeze-thaw-rated materials.
Code requirements change quantities, so our masonry estimators review every Paramus drawing set against the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC), paying attention to reinforcing, tie spacing, flashing, and fire-wall requirements. The takeoff is built in Tradesmen's Software, PlanSwift, and Bluebeam Revu and delivered as an Excel workbook with color-coded, marked-up plans.
With a 98% bid-hit ratio across more than 5,000 U.S. projects, Remote Estimation gives Paramus contractors professional masonry estimating capacity without the cost of an in-house department, and we work the same way for firms in nearby Hackensack and Ridgewood. We can price masonry labor at union, prevailing-wage, or open-shop rates. In New Jersey, NJDOL publishes the prevailing wage rates used on public works and many publicly assisted redevelopment jobs.
