Drywall Estimator

A well-established interior specialty contractor with a growing Southeast footprint is adding a Drywall Estimator to its Savannah, GA area office. The company serves healthcare, multifamily, and hospitality across a regional radius, handling new construction and renovation. This office manages over $20 million in annual contracts and is on a rapid growth path, opening new regional offices each year. For a strong estimator who wants to own pre-construction for a real book of work and grow into a senior role inside a low-turnover, high-autonomy culture, this is a legitimate opportunity.
