Full-Time | 100% Remote | $8/hour
About the Role
We are hiring a detail-driven Estimator to support both insurance-based roofing & repair projects and commercial construction bids (QSR, restaurants, and retail). This role blends Xactimate estimating, scope analysis, and bid coordination across multiple platforms and tight deadlines.
This is not an entry-level role. You will be trusted to interpret scopes, identify gaps, build accurate estimates, communicate with contractors and adjusters, and protect margin through disciplined estimating.

Estimating & Scope Review
- Prepare accurate, itemized estimates using Xactimate (roofing/repairs) and Excel or Job Nimbus (commercial bids)

- Identify discrepancies, supplements, and scope gaps
- Revise estimates based on inspections, updates, or carrier/GC feedback
Commercial Bid Coordination
- Monitor estimator inboxes and prioritize time-sensitive bids
- Retrieve drawings and documents via Building Connected and PlanHub
- Clarify missing or vague scopes directly with GC estimators or project managers (phone preferred)
- Submit bids correctly and on time across required platforms
- Track bid status, follow-ups, and outcomes for reporting
Trades & Project Types
- Trades: selective demolition, framing, drywall, millwork, finish carpentry
- Projects: QSR (e.g., coffee chains), full-service restaurants, small to mid-size retail
Qualifications
- Proven experience as an Estimator in roofing, repair, or commercial construction
- Strong Xactimate experience (required)
- Solid understanding of construction terminology and scopes of work
- Experience with insurance claims and pricing guidelines preferred
- High attention to detail, strong documentation habits
- Comfortable managing multiple deadlines independently
- Confident, professional phone and written communication
