Your Xactimate skills are worth more than you're being paid for them. Come find out how much more.


We're a locally-owned, family-run restoration company serving the greater Seattle area since 2005, and we're growing across water mitigation, fire/smoke restoration, and mold remediation. We need an experienced Estimator/Project Manager who knows how to write a scope that holds up, negotiate with adjusters who push back, and keep a pipeline of jobs moving without anything falling through the cracks.


If you're estimating restoration jobs right now but feeling capped — on pay, on autonomy, or on how much your accuracy actually gets recognized — this is worth a conversation.



What You'll Do


  Inspect losses and write accurate Xactimate estimates across water, fire/smoke, and mold jobs
  Own the insurance claims process from first submission through final payment
  Negotiate scope and pricing directly with adjusters — and win the arguments worth winning
  Identify and write supplements for additional damage that other estimators would miss
  Manage a pipeline of 20–40 active jobs without losing track of a single one
  Be the financial gatekeeper that protects margin on every job that comes through the door


What We Offer


  $65,000–$85,000 base salary, depending on experience
  Performance bonus tied to collected revenue and margin targets
  Mileage reimbursement for site visits at the IRS standard rate
  Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  Paid time off and sick leave
  Company-paid Xactimate training and IICRC certification support
  A growth path toward Senior Estimator or Director of Operations


What We're Looking For


Required:


•        3+ years of restoration estimating or project management experience
•        Proficiency in Xactimate — Level 1 certification strongly preferred
•        Working knowledge of insurance restoration claims, supplements, and adjuster negotiation
•        Strong organizational skills — you don't let jobs slip through the cracks
•        Confident, professional communicator who isn't afraid to push back on a lowball adjuster
•        Valid driver's license for site visit travel

A plus, but not required:


•        Xactimate Level 2 certification
•        IICRC WRT, ASD, or FSRT certification
•        Experience working with TPAs — Alacrity, Contractor Connection, Sedgwick, or similar
•        Field restoration background — estimators who've been on the tools earn more adjuster credibility



Why Estimators Choose Us


A lot of restoration companies treat estimating like a back-office function — write the number, move on, let someone else fight for it. We don't operate that way. Your scope accuracy and your negotiation skill directly protect this company's margin, and we know it. That means real compensation tied to results, real autonomy in how you run your pipeline, and real respect for the value this role brings.


We're a family-owned company that's been building a reputation in this market since 2005. If you're ready to be the estimator who actually gets credit for the revenue you protect, we want to talk to you.
