For General Contractors, Electrical Contractors & Subcontractors
When a Princeton bid is due, the electrical numbers have to be right the first time. Remote Estimation delivers electrical estimating services in Princeton, NJ for electrical contractors, low-voltage subcontractors, and general contractors, with quantities measured from your drawings, priced in Excel, and backed by a 98% bid-hit ratio.
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 Electrical Estimating Services provide contractors with detailed quantity takeoffs and cost analysis prepared directly from project drawings and specifications. Every estimate is designed to improve bid accuracy, reduce risk, and support better project planning.
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 Princeton electrical takeoff covers emergency and exit lighting, fire alarm devices, low-voltage and data cabling, grounding and bonding, generators and transfer switches, site lighting, conduit and raceways, wire and cable, switchgear and switchboards, and panelboards and transformers. Renovation estimates split demolition, make-safe work, service upgrades, and new circuits. Heat trace, unit heaters, and snow-melt circuits are counted with their feeders and controls. Every electrical item is reported with exact counts, linear footage, square footage, or volume, cross-referenced to your drawing sheets and schedules.

Princeton's university building program and the Route 1 research corridor produce some of New Jersey's most detailed institutional and lab bids. That's the market we estimate for every day, building electrical takeoffs for projects from Princeton University campus expansion to high-end residential.
Many Princeton electrical jobs are renovations: service upgrades, removing knob-and-tube or cloth wiring, and fishing new circuits through plaster walls. We separate demolition, make-safe work, and new installation so renovation labor is priced realistically. The area's winters affect electrical scope: heat trace on piping and roof drains, unit heaters in vestibules and warehouses, snow-melt systems, and temporary heat during winter construction.
Projects in Princeton are permitted under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC) electrical subcode, which adopts the National Electrical Code, so we follow the code-driven notes on your drawings (NEC-driven receptacle spacing, AFCI/GFCI protection, emergency lighting, and EV-ready circuits) and carry them into the takeoff. Our team uses ConEst, McCormick, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift to measure and organize every electrical quantity.
With a 98% bid-hit ratio across more than 5,000 U.S. projects, Remote Estimation gives Princeton contractors professional electrical estimating capacity without the cost of an in-house department, and we work the same way for firms in nearby West Windsor and Plainsboro. Labor assumptions for the electrical scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. 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. Share your plans and scope, and we'll send a fixed quote within an hour.
Princeton is the center of our electrical work in Mercer County, but our estimators also price jobs in West Windsor, Plainsboro, and Lawrenceville and other nearby communities. Inside the city, Downtown and Nassau Street, the Princeton University campus, and the Route 1 corridor keep the bid boards busy. Drawings come in remotely, and the rest of New Jersey is covered as well.
