# What’s the Typical Salary Range for a Construction Estimator in 2024–2025?

Construction estimator pay depends on years of experience, project size and complexity, the sector you work in (heavy civil, data center, rail, tunnels, wastewater, site development), software proficiency, and relevant certifications such as the CEP. Estimators on large, technically complex projects consistently earn more than those on smaller scopes. Geographic market also plays a role, with high-cost metros running above national averages. Our construction salary data is drawn straight from where the hiring happens, our recruiting desks, across a network of 90,000+ construction professionals, and cross-checked against authoritative sources including BLS, AGC, and ENR.
