A Reconstruction Estimator is a professional who assesses the cost and scope of rebuilding or repairing properties after damage from events such as fires, floods, storms, or other disasters. They evaluate the extent of damage, calculate material and labor costs, and prepare detailed estimates for insurance claims or construction projects.
