Hey guys I’m located in middletown, New Jersey and I just received a quote for adding 4 pillars and reinforcing a girder/joist. I wanted to post the quote here and see if the price is in line. If not, does anyone have a good contractor they would be willing to refer?

The estimate is as follows:

1) “dig 18”x18”x12” footings, install four #4 rebar reinforcements and fill using 4000 psi concrete. Build CMU 12x16 pillars from new footing to bottom of existing main girder.” 

The cost for this is quoted at $5,000. 

2) “reinforce main girder to meet current building standards. “

The cost for this is quoted at $1,850. 

3) “sister existing floor joists where notched and structurally compromised”. 

The cost for this is quoted at $550.
