As a flooring estimator, you provide cost quotes for the materials and installation of vinyl, carpet, or wood floors. Your duties may include reviewing bid documents, verifying material quantities, providing multiple estimates, attending project meetings, and handling project responsibilities from start to finish. A flooring estimator gathers client specifications, explains material options, and then uses estimating software to develop an installation plan. You communicate with customers as well as the installation crew to ensure work gets completed on schedule. A flooring estimator can work on residential and commercial programs.
