  • Watch a week in my life go by as I estimate projects and have a good time. I wanted to record the week and show you what its like because I would have enjoyed watching it while I was in school. I am 22 years old and just graduated with a construction science degree last year. If you want to see more of this content let me know in the comments below.

    Can you do “walk through” of your take offs mock up of a project. Ppl need to know as a estimator you interact with many ppl and can’t be shy in team meetings explaining how you got your numbers for the job

      I don't show the computer screen because the tab sheets are privately owned by the company and I don't want to get in trouble showing it lol.

    Ran into your channel & it’s pretty cool seeing someone else do the same thing as me! lol would it be possible to get a video of your set up? Might want to try something different to mine

      I might throw that into one of my next videos!

    Hey Cody, I will be working as an estimator next week and I’m super nervous,any tips for beginners?

    Congratulations on the office, I am moving from the field into estimating and my dream is to some day be in the position you are so I appreciate the videos.
    My questions I have are:
    Do certain individuals handle specific trade take-offs or does everyone cover every trade? Also, how often do you make site visits?

    • @CodyCockroft
      @CodyCockroft  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks Will! Best of luck to you.
      Yes. We have a small team of estimators and we are all in charge of certain divisions, not every one.
      I go on site visits (if i had to make a guess) 1-2 times a month. But if I want to go on more, I could just go.

    What software do you use for take-offs?

  • @estevanalvarez928

    New subscriber here! Do u think it is possible to became an estimator with an associates degree or is it a set requirement for a bachelors? Thanks!

    • @CodyCockroft
      @CodyCockroft  ปีที่แล้ว

      You could do either! I know someone who didnt graduate college and he is estimating. Just depends on who you know to get in the door.

    I'm still learning 5 balls but i getting very confused which ball goes first then which ball i catch

    • @CodyCockroft
      @CodyCockroft  ปีที่แล้ว

      Watch my 5 ball juggling videos and slow it down more in the settings. That is what I used to do.

    I'm really enjoying your videos. I want to ask I'm in last semester of Bachelor in Architectural Engineering. Can I get job as estimator after completing my degree or is there something else I need.
    Plus anything you recommend like any course, practice, internship in particular thing will be appreciated.
    I'll eagerly wait for your guidance. 😇

    • @CodyCockroft
      @CodyCockroft  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes you can. I got my job right after college. I applied as an intern first and then was hired full time. Career fairs help a lot.

    Do you do your takeoffs on Bluebeam?

    • @CodyCockroft
      @CodyCockroft  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      yes! i think its pretty simple to use.

      @@CodyCockroft Nice. What’s your favorite features on it? I did an internship in estimating.

    Hey i would like to work as estimator req your guidance

    • @CodyCockroft

      My college degree helped get me into the door. That would be the first step. If you do not have a degree, than you need to find someone you know in estimating to help you get a job.
