For Paterson projects, we quantify demolition, storm drainage systems, sanitary sewer, water distribution, stormwater management and detention, asphalt paving, aggregate base, concrete curbs and sidewalks, erosion and sediment control, and cut and fill volumes. Detention volumes and floodplain cut and fill are calculated. Utility trenches are measured to frost depth. Sitework quantities are organized in Excel by area and system, with waste factors and units clearly stated.

Paterson's historic mill district and Passaic River floodplain make adaptive reuse, affordable housing, and flood-resilient design the main local work. For excavation and earthwork contractors, utility subcontractors, and general contractors, that makes accurate sitework quantities on Great Falls historic district redevelopment and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
Floodplain sites in Passaic County need compensatory storage, detention, raised building pads, and larger storm systems. We quantify cut-and-fill balance and detention volumes. Paterson's frost depth sets utility burial depths, and winter earthwork may require frost removal and thawing. New Jersey's Inland Flood Protection Rule raised design flood elevations in regulated areas, so we check elevations against current NJDEP requirements on the drawings.
Our sitework estimators use Kubla Cubed, AGTEK, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift to build each Paterson takeoff, and they read the drawings with the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC) in mind, including stormwater management, erosion control, and utility separation requirements. You receive an Excel workbook and marked-up PDFs, so every sitework number can be checked.
With a 98% bid-hit ratio across more than 5,000 U.S. projects, Remote Estimation gives Paterson contractors professional sitework estimating capacity without the cost of an in-house department, and we work the same way for firms in nearby Clifton and Passaic. We can price sitework labor at union, prevailing-wage, or open-shop rates. New Jersey's Prevailing Wage Act covers public works, with rates published by the NJ Department of Labor and Workforce Development, and many redevelopment projects carry the same requirement. Your first sitework estimate is 10% off.
Paterson is the center of our sitework work in Passaic County, but our estimators also price jobs in Clifton, Passaic, and Wayne and other nearby communities.
