Thermal Shop

We’re Thermal Shop. Fast-moving, high-standards, zero-excuses. Builders hire us because we communicate, hit dates, and keep jobs clean. If you own outcomes and keep everyone on the same page, read on.

What you’ll do 

  • Turn plans and site info into tight scopes and prices using STACK.
  • Run the job: handoff to production, be the primary daytime point of contact for crews and builders, manage changes/COs, and close out clean.
  • Keep schedules moving and customers informed.
  • Capture lessons learned to improve templates and processes.

Typical time split: Estimating 50%+, PM/calls 10–20%, on-site 10% or less, the rest internal coordination.

Note: Occasionally you may need to be available after hours or on a weekend to resolve an urgent project issue. It’s rare, but it happens.

What good looks like 

  • Daily STACK takeoffs with 3–5 bid packages per day.
  • Clear, proactive communication with builders, homeowners, and our installers.

  • Excellent customer experience and a reputation-enhancing closeout on every job. You
  • 2+ years in construction estimating or PM (insulation a plus, not required).
  • Confident reading plans and scoping work; organized and responsive.
  • Steady under pressure, direct communicator, customers-first mindset.
  • Valid driver’s license; comfortable with a few local site visits each week.

Tools you’ll use

Compensation 

  • Base salary: $70,000–$85,000 DOE.
  • Commission: 1% of collected revenue on jobs you estimate and run, paid after successful execution, payment is received, and the estimate is reasonably accurate (within agreed variance).
  • Target total comp is six figures when you’re running a healthy book. Your upside grows with volume and clean execution.

Benefits

  • 3 weeks PTO plus paid holidays.
  • 401(k) implemented no later than January 1, 2026.

  • Mileage reimbursement.

How we hire

Our culture
