At Davidson Sash & Door, you won’t be just another name on a spreadsheet. We’re a family-oriented company where people matter, decisions are made quickly, and your work has a visible impact. If you’re coming from a larger organization where you feel like a number, this is an opportunity to step into a role where your experience is valued, your voice is heard, and you can help shape how the business grows. We’re small enough to be nimble, but established enough to be working on meaningful commercial projects—and we’re looking for someone who wants to be part of building something, not just maintaining it.

 

We are looking to hire a Senior Construction Estimator to support our growing commercial window replacement division.

 

We specialize in projects for universities, schools, and large commercial facilities, with typical jobs ranging from $200K–$2M, plus smaller $40K+ projects that help maintain steady workflow.

 

This is a hands-on role working with plans, job sites, and our sales team — not just sitting behind a desk.

 

What You’ll Do

  • Estimate commercial window replacement projects ($40K–$2M+)
  • Perform takeoffs from architectural plans
  • Visit job sites as needed
  • Work closely with sales on bids and opportunities
  • Identify new project opportunities
  • Implement and use Bluebeam for digital takeoffs
  • Help improve and standardize our estimating process

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years construction estimating experience
  • Experience with commercial projects
  • Ability to read plans and perform takeoffs
  • Comfortable in both office and field
  • Strong Excel skills
  • Bluebeam experience (or ability to implement it)

Preferred:

  • Window, glazing, or exterior envelope experience
  • Renovation / replacement project experience

Why This Role

  • Mix of large projects and steady smaller work
  • Work with universities and institutional clients
  • Opportunity to build and improve estimating systems
  • Growth into leadership role

Compensation

  • Competitive salary (based on experience)
  • Profit sharing opportunities
  • Mileage reimbursement
  • Health Insurance
  • Paid time off 

Apply if you:

  • Want more than just takeoffs
  • Like being involved in both planning and field work
  • Can spot opportunities, not just price them

If your experience aligns with what we’re looking for, you’ll receive an invitation to complete a brief one-way video interview so we can get to know you beyond your resume. You’ll also receive a separate link to a short DISC assessment. Both steps are part of our process and help us ensure a strong fit on both sides. We’ve designed this to be straightforward and respectful of your time, and we look forward to learning more about you.
