I have extensive experience creating accurate estimates utilizing Xactimate software. I am highly skilled in estimating all areas of property damage, including both mitigation and build back. I write hundreds of estimates a year, ranging from small residential losses to large commercial and multi-unit dwellings. I bring with me expertise in estimating damages from water (including hurricanes), flood (NFIP claims), fire, smoke, mold, and more, and this includes demolition, dry out, contents and structure cleaning, reconstruction of all kinds (roofing, carpentry, flooring, drywall, painting, plumbing, electrical, etc.), pack outs, laundry, and more. My typical customers are contractors or public adjusters, but I have also written estimates for IA's, appraisers, and the occasional homeowner handling their own claim. I am also familiar with software popular in the restoration industry, such as Restoration Manager, Matterport, iGuide, Docusketch, DASH, MICA, CompanyCam, Google Drive, JobDox, Dropbox, Encircle, Xcelerate, Zoho, and more. My prior background as an office manager of a small restoration company lends itself to my abilities as an estimator, as I have experience haggling with insurance companies. I understand the what goes into both mitigation and reconstruction jobs, including typical challenges, and that, as a contractor, the last thing you want to do is leave money on the table. I also understand the unique issues and financial costs involved with packing your crew and equipment up and heading to an out-of-state cat event, such as a hurricane. I have lots of great reviews on Upwork ,and most of my customers off of Upwork have been referrals, speaking to my accuracy and competency as an estimator. I look forward to working with you to achieve your company's goals!
