Construction Estimator / Project Manager

The Durable Slate Company • Savage, MD • 1h ago

Durable Restoration - Preserving History. Building Legacy.

At Durable Restoration, we don't just work on buildings - we preserve history.

Our mission is to restore and protect some of the most significant historic structures in the country, including churches, government buildings, universities, museums, and landmark private residences. These buildings define communities. They hold stories. And our clients trust us to safeguard their character and extend their lifespan for generations to come.

If you are passionate about construction, thrive on solving complex challenges, and take pride in craftsmanship and integrity, we want to meet you.

Why This Role Matters

Every project we take on is unique. Historic structures require more than standard estimating methods - they demand critical thinking, deep construction knowledge, and a true understanding of how buildings function.

We are seeking a driven, detail-oriented professional who can evaluate projects, think through construction processes from start to finish, and deliver accurate, profitable, and comprehensive estimates - all while upholding "The Durable Way."

This is not a desk-only position. You will visit job sites, climb bell towers, evaluate historic masonry, meet with decision-makers, and collaborate closely with our field teams to ensure excellence in execution.

What You'll Do

Meet with prospective clients to evaluate project fit and scope

Review drawings, specifications, and proposal documents

Attend pre-bid meetings and conduct site visits

Climb ladders (interior and exterior) to access steeples, towers, and elevated areas

Develop accurate, detailed, and profitable project estimates

Think critically about construction methods - not just price per square foot

Collaborate with our construction team throughout project phases

Ensure projects are executed using proper historical means and methods

What We're Looking For

2+ year construction-related degree or construction management/estimating experience

Strong ability to read and interpret blueprints and specification books

Deep understanding of construction practices, processes, and sequencing

Ability to think beyond formulas and apply sound judgment

Strong communication skills

Willingness to travel (typically 1-3 days at a time)

Valid driver's license (4 points or fewer)

Ability to pass pre-employment and random drug screenings

Ability to pass Federal, NSA, and Department of Defense background checks

A mindset focused on learning, growth, and excellence

Experience with traditional building techniques and historic water infiltration prevention methods is a strong plus - but we will train the right candidate who is eager to learn.

What We Offer

We believe in rewarding performance and investing in our people.

Competitive pay (negotiable based on experience)

Paid in-house and on-the-job training

Paid Safety & OSHA Compliance Training

Health, Vision, and Dental Insurance after 90 days

401(k) eligibility after 90 days

Performance-based bonuses

Advancement based on performance - not tenure

Paid vacation and holidays

Paid travel time, hotel accommodations, and per diem

Company vehicle and cell phone after training completion

Who Thrives Here

The best candidates for this role:

Take ownership and responsibility

Have strong critical thinking skills

Care deeply about quality and craftsmanship

Value integrity and professionalism

Want their work to matter

At Durable Restoration, we strive for award-winning quality, world-class service, and uncompromising integrity. If you want to be part of a company that restores landmarks and builds careers, we invite you to apply.

We are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
