New Hampshire straddles the line between New England history and fast-paced southern expansion. The Rockingham and Hillsborough counties bordering Massachusetts boast some of the highest-growth construction markets in the Northeast, but the northern reaches of the state offer unique challenges. No sales taxes and no income taxes attract businesses and individuals from nearby states, ensuring a steady need for construction, although this makes for fierce competition among bidding contractors, where estimating capabilities make all the difference between a winning bid and lost profits. Concept Estimating offers New Hampshire construction estimating services in accordance with the conditions surrounding your project within the state of New Hampshire.
Concept New Hampshire Construction Estimates are based upon current prices in Hillsborough, Rockingham, and Grafton Counties, NH building code, and real-world labor and material costs for Northern New England. Our estimates are always based upon the true cost of construction in New Hampshire.

The biggest problem with New Hampshire estimates comes from considering it a homogeneous market. The wage rate for southern New Hampshire is determined by metropolitan Boston competition; wages in the north are driven by limited labor availability and mobilization premiums, both of which cannot be represented by one statewide index. Together with differences in the cost of septic systems and wells in rural residential projects, wetland permit fees in lakefront areas, and budgeting deficiencies when winter construction is anticipated, the cumulative impact is costly. According to industry statistics, estimates based on market and regulatory assumptions that are not locally relevant are typically 12% to 18% off. In a $650,000 project in New Hampshire, that means an extra $78,000 to $117,000 in expenses.
