Restoration Estimator

Pulliam Restoration • Dentsville, SC

About The Position

Pulliam Restoration is hiring a disciplined, detail-driven Restoration Estimator to join our growing Estimating Division. While we handle both residential and commercial work, this role carries a strong commercial focus - including large-loss mitigation, complex scopes, and fast-moving environments. This is not a "quick sketch and send it" position. We operate on EOS. We track performance. We protect margin. And we move with urgency. This role directly impacts company profitability. We are looking for someone who can step into a structured system, take direction from our Estimating Division Manager, and execute consistently at a high level. If you can walk into a damaged property, think critically, build a defensible scope, and deliver a clean estimate within 48 hours - we want to talk to you.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate daily with PMs, Operations, and the Job File Coordinator
• Keep documentation clean and updated in our management system
• Participate in weekly estimating review meetings
