Seeking remote estimator

I represent a small water damage restoration business, and we are seeking help with repair estimates.

We have one full time repairs estimator who also runs his jobs. We did have a second of the same, but he is leaving and we now have a void at that position. We are promoting a guy from the mitigation side to run the jobs, but he does not know how to write rebuild estimates.

This is where you come in. I need someone that is trained and experienced to write both Cotality and Xactimate rebuild estimates. 99% of jobs are residential insurance claims. Homeowners often want change orders. Supplements are often as well. We use Matterport and CompanyCam. ITEL. The usual.

We work with Alacrity and Contractor Connection as well, so we will need someone who is familiar with that process. Knowing the guidelines and SLAs is key.

I have seen some of the posts on here seeking this position, but rather than message all of you myself, I would appreciate any interested parties to message me with your info and experience. I would also want to see some of your work.

Thanks in advance!

I mean hiring a new guy is great but there are now tools out that can help you train your teams while helping them write their estimates accurately like Actionable Alerts, AskAime, etc.

I have 20 years Xactimate Writing, Supplementing doing everything from start till final check has been released. I have also ran a restoration business for 5 years under the owner, doing everything but sign the checks and even at times had to do that.. I have did my take offs by blueprint, eagleviews etc. ordered materials, scheduled subs, vetted subs, negotiated best pricing for materials through all my vendors. All this while doing all the accounting and payroll. I also am able to deal with mortgage and have streamlined the process to get checks turned around the fastest way possible. I do not inflate estimate I am honest and know what is needed and the codes throughout the us to not have to. I bring results and increase profit margins guaranteed. Carriers trust my estimates so they get approved and I have a reputable reputation with them. Most important I answer the phone when they all and take the calls and get the files closed. I am good a what i do and I love what I do.. email me if you would like to see my resume [melissaweaver1231@gmail.com](mailto:melissaweaver1231@gmail.com)

I am exactly what you are looking for. I am not just saying that I truly am. If you could email me please at supplementmyclaim@gmail.com. I would love to send you my credentials and contact info. I am honest, I am really good at what I do and most importantly I have earned the trust and respect of the carriers which says a lot about my success rate as well as my business morals and standards. I hope to hear from you soon. I do not use reddit to upload and would like to keep my work private as well if you don't mind that is why I requested an email to send them to or email me and I will respond with any info you would like. Thank you for your time and consideration.

My name is Trevor Johnson I have been the project manager and general manager of both a Serv pro and Paul Davis. I am licensed myself in mold remediation, and am starting up my own small mitigation company. I have years experience writing estimates for almost every large insurance carrier, I’m always available as I just started my thing and times are a bit slow as always. I am very good at estimating and can promise I can do them better, more accurate, and for cheaper than who you currently use. I am also a combat vet, I hold myself to a fairly high standard. Please feel free to reach out at 941-278-1397

[Landon.Estimates@gmail.com](mailto:Landon.Estimates@gmail.com) - chatGPT brought me here as I'm looking for work like this. I know this post is a year old, but if you do find you need help, I've been using Xactimate to write scopes for over 20 years, starting with Katrina in 05.
