Local FAQ
the USA estimating questions
Do you use RSMeans data?
Yes. RSMeans is our default benchmark, blended with live local supplier quotes for accuracy at the zip-code level.
Can you handle prevailing wage / public works projects?
Yes. We apply Davis-Bacon and state prevailing wage schedules for public works, DOT and federally funded projects.
Which states do you cover?
All 50 states plus DC. We adjust for state-level code amendments (IBC/IRC), regional labour productivity and local sales tax.
Do you deliver in Excel, PlanSwift or Sage formats?
Excel and marked PDFs by default. PlanSwift exports and Sage Estimating-compatible files available on Standard and Enterprise tiers.
How do you price New York City (5 boroughs) projects?
NYC estimates apply NY DOB compliance, prevailing wage (Local Law 196 where applicable), union labour rates and a Manhattan logistics premium. We benchmark against zip-specific supplier quotes — typical uplift 25–35% vs national average for Manhattan, 10–18% for outer boroughs.
Do you cover Los Angeles and California Title 24 requirements?
Yes. LA-area estimates (zips 900–935) include California Title 24 energy compliance, seismic Cat-D framing uplifts and CalGreen finishes. We price against SoCal supplier benchmarks (Dunn-Edwards, HD Supply Sylmar).
Can you handle Chicago union and Cook County projects?
Yes. Chicago projects (606xx zips) factor Chicago Building Code, Cook County prevailing wage and union scale (Local 130 plumbers, Local 134 electricians) where applicable.
Do you estimate Texas projects under IECC and hurricane-zone codes?
Yes. Houston (770–772), Dallas (752–753) and coastal Texas zips include wind-zone framing uplifts, IECC 2021 envelope compliance and Texas prevailing wage on TxDOT-funded work.
