For General Contractors, Steel Contractors & Subcontractors
Contractors bidding work tied to North Shore waterfront redevelopment need numbers they can defend. Remote Estimation provides metals and structural steel estimating services in Staten Island, NY, turning your drawings into itemized structural steel and metals quantities and cost estimates for steel fabricators, erectors, miscellaneous metals subcontractors, and general contractors, usually within 24 to 72 hours.
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 Metals Estimating Services provide detailed quantity calculations and cost analysis prepared directly from structural drawings, fabrication details, and project specifications.
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.
Each Staten Island estimate includes shear studs, base plates and anchor rods, fireproofing interface, structural steel beams and columns, steel joists and joist girders, metal roof and floor decking, bracing and moment connections, stairs and handrails, guardrails and railings, and embeds and lintels. Steel is separated by finish requirement. Snow-load design steel is quantified. You get itemized structural steel and metals counts and measurements tied to sheet numbers, so your team can verify any line in minutes.

Staten Island is NYC's most suburban borough: detached and semi-detached homes, North Shore waterfront redevelopment, and post-Sandy elevations on the East Shore. That's the market we estimate for every day, building structural steel and metals takeoffs for projects from North Shore waterfront redevelopment to post-Sandy resiliency upgrades.
Near the water in Staten Island, steel finish specifications drive cost, and our takeoffs list galvanized, painted, and stainless items separately. Elevated structures in Richmond County flood areas use steel framing, which we take off.
Each takeoff is built in Tekla Structures, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift from your current plan set and checked against the NYC Construction Codes, including connection design, bracing, guardrail heights, and special-inspection requirements. New York City costs such as DOB NOW filings, sidewalk sheds, hoisting, and Local Law 97 upgrades are called out separately when they apply. Metals quantities are organized by area, floor, and system to match how Staten Island contractors actually bid.
Remote Estimation has prepared estimates on more than 5,000 projects for 500+ contractors, and that experience goes into every Staten Island structural steel and metals bid we touch. Labor assumptions for the structural steel and metals scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. City-funded work in the five boroughs is priced at the NYC Comptroller's prevailing wage schedules, and much private work here is built with union crews.
