JOB OVERVIEW

Painting Estimator / Takeoff Specialist (Remote)

We’re a U.S.-based commercial painting company working on large residential and mixed-use construction projects.

We’re looking for a **solid, detail-oriented estimator** who understands painting scopes—including **wallcoverings and specialty finishes**—and can **communicate clearly in English (written and spoken)**. This is not a training role.

---

What You’ll Be Doing

* Perform accurate takeoffs from PDF construction drawings
* Quantify:

* Wall square footage
* Ceiling square footage
* Doors and frames
* Base, trim, and other linear items
* Review finish schedules and specs carefully
* Handle **wallcoverings** (vinyl, fabric, feature walls, etc.)
* Understand and quantify **special finishes** (high-gloss, level 5, decorative coatings, etc.)
* Break scopes down by:

* Apartments / units
* Common areas
* Corridors, stairwells, amenities
* Build clean, organized BOQs in Excel
* Flag missing info, scope gaps, or anything that doesn’t add up

What We’re Looking For

* Proven experience doing **painting takeoffs (required)**
* Strong ability to read plans and finish schedules without guessing
* Good English communication skills (required) — you must be able to explain your numbers clearly on calls and in writing
* Experience with:

* Bluebeam Revu or PlanSwift or Togal.AI
* Microsoft Excel (required)
* High attention to detail — your numbers need to hold up
* Consistency and reliability

---

Pay Structure

* $4–$6 per hour (based on experience and accuracy)
* Bonuses tied to:

* Jobs we win
* Speed and turnaround
* Clean, accurate work

This is steady, long-term work for the right person, with upside based on performance.

-Do Not Apply If

* You don’t have real takeoff experience
* You rely on guessing or rough estimates
* You are not comfortable communicating in English
* You cannot provide sample work

---

How to Apply

To be considered, include:

1. A sample takeoff or BOQ (painting-related preferred)
2. Short answers:

* What types of projects have you estimated?
* What software do you use?
* How do you ensure accuracy in your takeoffs?
* How comfortable are you communicating in English on calls?

No sample = no review.

Final Note

We’re looking for someone long-term. If you’re reliable, accurate, and communicate well, there will be consistent work and growth.

Add “PAINT PRO” at the top of your application so we know you read this fully.
