We are seeking an experienced and detail-driven Wet Utilities Estimator to develop accurate cost proposals and bids for underground utility projects involving water, sewer, and storm drain systems. Based in Rancho Cucamonga, this role supports pre-construction planning and plays a critical part in winning competitive public and private sector infrastructure projects across Southern California.

  • Interpret agency and municipal standards related to underground utility work.
  • Solicit pricing from vendors and subcontractors; evaluate proposals for completeness and competitiveness.
  • Prepare and submit timely bid packages and RFP responses.
  • Coordinate with project managers and field personnel to ensure estimates align with constructability and schedule goals.
  • Attend pre-bid meetings and conduct site visits to assess conditions and logistical considerations.
  • Maintain historical cost data and update unit pricing as market conditions change.
  • Assist with budgeting, value engineering, and change order pricing on awarded projects.

Qualifications:

  • High school diploma or GED required; degree in civil engineering, construction management, or related field preferred.
  • 5+ years of estimating experience in wet utilities, underground infrastructure, or heavy civil construction.
  • In-depth knowledge of installation methods for water mains, sewer lines, and storm drainage systems.
  • Strong ability to interpret civil drawings, profiles, and municipal specifications.
  • Proficient with estimating tools such as Bluebeam, Excel, Agtek, or HCSS (preferred).
  • Understanding of prevailing wage requirements, union labor rates, and public works bidding procedures in California.
  • Excellent attention to detail, time management, and communication skills.
  • Valid California Driver's License; ability to travel to project sites when necessary.
