Construction Estimator for GCs & Remodelers

I’m a construction cost estimator with dual civil engineering degrees (Istanbul Technical University and University at Buffalo, SUNY) and 5+ years of estimating experience, from residential remodels to a $259k commercial renovation bid and public works pricing at prevailing wage rates. Top Rated Plus, 100% Job Success, 1,300+ hours on Upwork. For the past year I’ve run the entire estimating operation for a licensed California general contractor, remotely, week after week: 800+ hours of quotes and proposals across plumbing, electrical, carpentry, painting, HVAC, and specialty scopes. What I do for clients: Line-item quotes and proposals in your format, ready to send to your client Scope writing that closes the gaps that cost you money mid-project Estimate and bid review: missing items, pricing sanity checks, exclusions Change order and variation pricing Cost tracking, progress valuations, and budget control through the build AI estimating setup: templates, price books, and AI-assisted workflows your team can run My edge is not just the numbers. It’s running your estimating the way a sharp in-house estimator would, without the in-house salary. I build my workflow around AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT for the repetitive parts, and I personally review every quantity and price before anything goes out. You get fast turnaround without losing accuracy. If your project requires fully manual work with no AI tools, I’m not the right fit. If you want speed and a repeatable system, I’m your estimator. Send me your scope, photos, or drawings, and I’ll tell you the same day exactly what I can deliver and when.
