Job Description - Commercial Drywall Estimator

 Solid Rock Recruiting- The #1 Commercial Drywall Recruiting Firm in the USA



 


Commercial Drywall Estimator 


Location: York, PA
Work Style: In-office (local candidates only)
Territory: Central PA with limited MD travel (within ~2–2.5 hours)


Solid Rock Recruiting is hiring on behalf of a well-established commercial drywall contractor seeking an In-House Drywall Estimator. This is a long-term opportunity for someone who wants more than just a desk role—someone who enjoys estimating, communicating with GCs, and being connected to the field.


This position is ideal for an estimator who wants to grow with a company, build relationships, and eventually step into greater responsibility.


The Role


This is not a heads-down-only estimating position.


The right person will handle commercial drywall takeoffs while also:




  • Following up on bids




  • Talking with general contractors




  • Visiting jobsites




  • Working closely with ownership and operations




You’ll be trusted to wear multiple hats and contribute to the company’s long-term growth.


Key Responsibilities




  • Prepare commercial drywall estimates (80–90% commercial)




  • Perform takeoffs using On-Screen Takeoff & QuickBid (preferred)




  • Estimate projects typically ranging from $250K–$650K




  • Occasionally support larger projects (up to ~$2M)




  • Follow up with GCs to sell and clarify bids




  • Visit jobsites to improve estimating accuracy and productivity




  • Build relationships with field teams and contractors




  • Collaborate directly with ownership and operations




  • No formal project management responsibilities




Project Types




  • Commercial interior fit-outs




  • Metal framing and drywall




  • Office and commercial buildings




Ideal Candidate Profile




  • Early-to-mid career mindset preferred (growth-oriented)




  • Some construction or field exposure is a plus




  • Estimating experience preferred, but not required to be “perfect”




  • Coachable, team-oriented, and motivated




  • Comfortable communicating with GCs and visiting jobsites




This is not a fit if you are:




  • Looking for a remote role




  • Rigid or resistant to learning




  • Only interested in senior-level autonomy with no collaboration




Experience Guidelines (Flexible)




  • 0–2 years: Entry-level / investment hire possible




  • 3–5 years: Ideal range




  • Drywall & metal framing experience is a strong plus




  • On-Screen Takeoff & QuickBid experience is a major advantage




Compensation & Benefits


Salary (based on experience):


Bonus potential based on performance and contribution
Benefits include:




  • Health insurance




  • PTO and holidays




  • 401(k) with company match




  • Strong retention-focused culture




Why This Opportunity




  • Family-style, people-first culture




  • Employees treated as individuals—not numbers




  • Stable, established company (in business since 1997)




  • ~$20M annual revenue




  • Long-term growth and leadership potential




  • Ownership values loyalty, longevity, and internal development




Requirements (Non-Negotiable)




  • Must be local and able to work in-office




  • Must be open to jobsite visits




  • Must be comfortable interacting with general contractors




  • Open-shop (non-union) environment




This Role Is Great For:




  • Assistant estimators ready to step up




  • Project engineers with estimating exposure




  • Field foreman transitioning into estimating




  • Estimators at large firms seeking a smaller, family-run company




  • Candidates who have hit a growth ceiling and want more opportunity
