The job

You are the company's eyes on site. After a homeowner asks for an estimate, you:

  • Confirm the visit with the homeowner by phone and review their request and photos before you go.
  • Walk the project with them and record their goals, worries and choices in their own words.
  • Measure every area (lengths, heights and areas, openings counted), with each figure marked as measured or estimated.
  • Fill in our worksheet for the trade: roofing, siding, gutters, decks, kitchen, bath, flooring, painting or electrical.
  • Photograph and video every area to our checklist, with a tape in the close-ups.
  • Upload the packet the same day and write a clear summary our estimator can price from.

You never give prices, dates or promises. You pass those questions to the office word for word.

What we are looking for

  • Detail: you measure twice, write it down on the spot, and catch what does not add up.
  • Clear communication: you ask the next question and write summaries a reader can act on.
  • Honesty: you say "I'm not sure, I'll check" rather than guess.
  • Reliability: punctual, prepared, same-day uploads.
  • Background: construction, a trade, home inspection, insurance adjusting or remodel sales.

Requirements

  • A smartphone with a good camera, and comfort with photo, measuring and file apps.
  • A reliable vehicle and a valid driver's license; you drive to homes across four counties.
  • Safe work on ladders (eave height) and in attics and crawlspaces from the opening.
  • Comfort with basic math: areas, linear feet, subtracting openings, feet and inches.

How it works

  1. Apply (a few minutes).
  2. Skills test right after, on this site: about 45 minutes of work, 60 minutes allowed, one attempt. It covers measuring from a plan and a photo, a worksheet, and a homeowner-call exercise.
  3. Measuring check in person (20 minutes) and an interview, for candidates who clear the test.
  4. One paid trial site visit, then a decision.

If you pass the first screening we will contact you within 5 business days. If you do not hear from us by then, we are moving forward with other candidates.
