Job Description

Estimator | Commercial Metals & Structural Steel
Owings Mills, MD | $85,000 - $100,000 Base + Bonus
Build More Than Estimates. Build Your Reputation.
For nearly 90 years, we've been fabricating and installing commercial metalwork across the Mid-Atlantic. From custom stairs and railings to structural steel and architectural metals, everything we build is fabricated in-house and installed by our own crews. That means our reputation, quality, and profitability start with one thing: accurate estimating.
If you're the person everyone trusts to find the details others miss, understand fabrication costs instinctively, and turn complex drawings into winning proposals, we want to talk to you.
At our company, estimates aren't just numbers. They're the foundation of every successful project we build. If you're ready to have a direct impact on project success while working alongside skilled craftspeople who take pride in their work, let’s talk.
Why Join Us?
✅ Family-founded company with a strong reputation since 1936
✅ In-house fabrication and installation means full project control
✅ High-impact role with visibility and influence
✅ No people management responsibilities - focus on what you do best
✅ Opportunity to become the go-to estimating expert for a growing organization
✅ Competitive salary plus performance bonus
What You'll Be Doing
As our Senior Estimator, you'll own our largest and most complex opportunities from initial drawing review through signed proposal.
You'll:

  • Prepare detailed estimates for stairs, railings, structural steel, miscellaneous metals, and architectural metals
  • Perform quantity takeoffs using Bluebeam and Excel
  • Build complete project costs including materials, fabrication labor, finishes, installation, engineering, permits, and equipment
  • Visit renovation sites to survey existing conditions and develop repair or replacement pricing
  • Review projects for IBC and ADA compliance and identify code-related concerns
  • Solicit and evaluate vendor and subcontractor pricing
  • Create professional proposals and support negotiations through award
  • Provide guidance on bid strategy and strategic pursuits
  • Review junior estimator work and maintain estimating quality standards
  • Partner with Project Management to ensure smooth project turnover
  • Analyze estimate-to-actual performance and continuously improve pricing accuracy
  • Maintain opportunities and pipeline activity in HubSpot and Procore

What We're Looking For
Required:

  • 7+ years of construction estimating experience
  • 5+ years estimating structural steel, miscellaneous metals, ornamental metals, architectural metals, or related fabrication trades
  • Strong ability to read architectural, structural, and shop drawings
  • Knowledge of fabrication processes and shop production requirements
  • Working knowledge of stair, guardrail, and handrail code requirements
  • Experience with Bluebeam, Procore a must
  • Proven track record of accurate, profitable bids
  • Strong communication and customer-facing skills
