Stuff North Las Vegas chimney contractors ask before they sign up
Does this respect NV code, or do I have to re-cut every quantity?
NV doesn't license chimney repair at the state level, so the variability comes from local amendments. Quantities are correct; you adjust crew rates and local permit assumptions in the bid summary.
How do you handle assessing masonry deterioration extent?
The model reads the plan once, counts symbols against your assembly library, and surfaces the count for review. You override anything that looks off before it hits the quote. For logistics work in North Las Vegas, the typical correction is one or two assemblies — not redoing the whole thing.
What about site conditions?
Build the local condition into your assembly defaults once, and it carries forward to every North Las Vegas bid afterward.

Plan on $175–$4,000 in North Las Vegas, with review running 2–4 weeks. Build that into general conditions so a slow plan-check doesn't eat your overhead. Insurance and bond are separate carrying costs.
