Landscaping Estimator Jobs

A Landscaping Estimator plays a significant role in the landscaping industry by providing accurate cost estimates for landscaping projects. They analyze blueprints, specifications, proposals, and other documentation to prepare time, material, and labor estimates. The Estimator is responsible for calculating the total cost of a project, taking into account factors such as labor costs, material costs, equipment rental, and the time it will take to complete the project. They also prepare, submit, and manage all project-related paperwork, including contracts, change orders, and billing.

To be successful in this role, a Landscaping Estimator should possess excellent analytical skills, detail orientation, and a strong understanding of landscaping principles. They should also have good communication skills, as they often interact with clients, contractors, and other members of project teams. They need to be proficient in using estimating software and other relevant computer applications. Certifications such as Certified Professional Estimator (CPE) or Certified Cost Estimator/Analyst (CCEA) can be beneficial. Prior to becoming a Landscaping Estimator, a person might have roles such as Landscaping Technician, Landscape Designer, or Project Coordinator within the landscaping industry.
