Union Township's Route 22 corridor, Kean University, and redevelopment around Union Center keep commercial and mid-rise residential bids moving. For roofing contractors, waterproofing subcontractors, and general contractors, that makes accurate roofing quantities on Route 22 commercial redevelopment and similar projects essential to winning work at a profit.
Union winters make ice and water shield along eaves and valleys, ventilation, and snow guards standard. We measure ice barrier by eave length and valley so these items are priced in full. Older local buildings bring parapets, chimneys, and copper or slate details that take time.
Each takeoff is built in RoofSnap, AppliCad, Bluebeam Revu, and PlanSwift from your current plan set and checked against the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC), including wind-uplift zones, edge securement, ice-barrier, and insulation R-value requirements. Roofing quantities are organized by area, floor, and system to match how Union contractors actually bid.
Remote Estimation has prepared estimates on more than 5,000 projects for 500+ contractors, and that experience goes into every Union roofing bid we touch. Labor assumptions for the roofing scope are yours to choose: union, prevailing wage, or open shop. Public jobs in New Jersey follow the state Prevailing Wage Act, and redevelopment projects that receive public assistance often do too. Share your plans and scope, and we'll send a fixed quote within an hour.
