For General Contractors, Painting Contractors & Subcontractors
When a Queens bid is due, the painting numbers have to be right the first time. Remote Estimation delivers painting estimating services in Queens, NY for painting contractors, coatings applicators, 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 Painting Estimating Services provide contractors with detailed surface measurements, material calculations, labor estimates, and organized cost reports prepared directly from project drawings and finish schedules.
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.
A Queens painting takeoff from our team lists interior wall and ceiling paint, primers and sealers, trim, doors, and frames, exterior elastomeric coatings, stucco and masonry coatings, epoxy floor coatings, intumescent fireproofing paint, high-performance industrial coatings, wallcoverings, and stains and clear finishes. Coastal coating systems are quantified by coat. Quantities are organized by floor and unit type, with access requirements noted. Quantities are grouped the way your painting crews install the work, which makes pricing labor as easy as pricing material.

Queens has airport terminal work at JFK, the Willets Point redevelopment, and dense mixed-use growth in Flushing and Jamaica, plus a large stock of one- to three-family homes. We prepare painting estimates for that full range of work, from Jamaica and Flushing mixed-use to smaller jobs in Bayside and Ridgewood.
Salt air in Queens breaks down coatings quickly, so specifications call for elastomeric and high-performance systems with thorough preparation. We quantify coating systems by coat and surface. Painting local towers means many repeated units and corridors, plus exterior work that may require swing stages.
Our painting estimators use PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and On-Screen Takeoff to build each Queens takeoff, and they read the drawings with the NYC Construction Codes in mind, including VOC limits, fire-rated coatings, and lead-safe work practices. New York City costs such as DOB NOW filings, sidewalk sheds, hoisting, and Local Law 97 upgrades are called out separately when they apply. You receive an Excel workbook and marked-up PDFs, so every painting number can be checked.
More than 500 contractors nationwide use our painting and construction estimating services to bid more work with fewer people. For Queens firms, that means accurate painting numbers in 24 to 72 hours, delivered by estimators who understand Queens County. Labor assumptions for the painting scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. Inside the five boroughs, city-funded jobs use the Comptroller's prevailing wage schedules, and union labor is common on private work too. Upload your plans for a quote within one hour, and get 10% off your first estimate.
We price painting work in every part of Queens, from Astoria, Flushing, and Jamaica to Jackson Heights, Forest Hills, and Long Island City, plus Bayside, Ridgewood, and Rego Park. Because estimating is done remotely from your drawings, a job in Long Island City gets the same turnaround as one in Astoria. For rules that apply citywide, see our New York City page.
