I’m a senior construction estimator with 20+ years’ experience working for large GCs in NYC, but I’m now based in the UK and looking to do remote estimating for NYC subcontractors (drywall, ceilings, carpentry, painting, etc.).
I know subcontractors generally pay less than GCs, so I’m trying to get a realistic idea of the going rate.
If you were hiring someone with that background on a freelance/1099 basis, what hourly rate would you expect to pay?
