FAQ

Florida questions, answered.

Do you estimate Davis-Bacon and prevailing-wage work in Florida?

Yes. Federal projects, and projects with federal assistance covered by a Related Act, carry Davis-Bacon wage determinations, and some Florida municipalities and owners specify prevailing wages in their solicitations. We are experienced with both, along with SREF projects and the estimating requirements for federal, HUD, LIHTC and affordable housing work. Labor is priced from the determination or rate stated in your bid documents.

Sources checked October 27, 2026. Confirm the requirement stated in your solicitation.

How is pricing tailored to my Florida project?

Material and labor pricing is tailored to your project's ZIP code and current local market. Contractor-provided costs, labor rates and production assumptions can be used where agreed, and the estimate states its pricing basis.

Can you estimate High-Velocity Hurricane Zone projects?

Yes, from the documents. We carry the products and assemblies the specifications require and flag where approval information is missing. Product approval and engineering certification stay with the design and product teams.

Do you estimate occupied healthcare renovations?

Yes. Michael Grubb's experience before Hemingway includes occupied healthcare renovations under ICRA and AHCA requirements. Containment, phasing and shift premiums are carried as explicit lines or labeled allowances.

What do you need to start?

Project location, the scope you want estimated, a link to the drawings and specifications, and your due date. Add the wage determination if one applies.

Does this replace local subcontractor pricing?

No. Use our quantities with your own subcontractor quotes, ask for a priced estimate, or have us level the proposals you receive.
