Rochester's downtown office-to-residential conversions, URMC expansion, and Eastman Business Park reuse all involve working with older structures in a heavy-snow climate. That's the market we estimate for every day, building sitework takeoffs for projects from University of Rochester Medical Center to downtown adaptive reuse.
Utilities in Rochester have to be buried below the frost line, and our takeoffs carry those depths. Local infill sites often involve demolition and utility abandonment, which we take off separately.
Under the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, small details add up: stormwater management, erosion control, and utility separation requirements. We catch them during the sitework takeoff instead of after the award. Measurements are done in Kubla Cubed, AGTEK, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift and summarized in Excel for your Rochester bid.
Remote Estimation has prepared estimates on more than 5,000 projects for 500+ contractors, and that experience goes into every Rochester sitework bid we touch. We can price sitework labor at union, prevailing-wage, or open-shop rates. Prevailing wage rates for public work in New York State come from the Department of Labor, organized by county and trade. Email your plan set to info@remoteestimation.us for a fixed sitework quote.
Beyond Rochester itself, our sitework estimators regularly price projects in Greece, Irondequoit, Henrietta, and Brighton, along with Pittsford and Webster. Closer in, we see steady work in Downtown Rochester, the Neighborhood of the Arts, the South Wedge, and the University of Rochester area. All estimating is done remotely, and the rest of New York is handled by the same team.
