Our Story
Masonry Takeoff & Estimating Built for Paterson Contractors
Paterson's historic mill district and Passaic River floodplain make adaptive reuse, affordable housing, and flood-resilient design the main local work. We prepare masonry estimates for that full range of work, from affordable housing to smaller jobs in Downtown Paterson and the Great Falls district.
Masonry restoration is a large market in Paterson: repointing, brick replacement, lintel repair, and facade work. We quantify restoration by elevation. Flood-zone foundations in Passaic County often use masonry with flood vents, which we count.
Under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC), small details add up: reinforcing, tie spacing, flashing, and fire-wall requirements. We catch them during the masonry takeoff instead of after the award. Measurements are done in Tradesmen's Software, PlanSwift, and Bluebeam Revu and summarized in Excel for your Paterson bid.
More than 500 contractors nationwide use our masonry and construction estimating services to bid more work with fewer people. For Paterson firms, that means accurate masonry numbers in 24 to 72 hours, delivered by estimators who understand Passaic County. Labor assumptions for the masonry scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. In New Jersey, NJDOL publishes the prevailing wage rates used on public works and many publicly assisted redevelopment jobs.
