Who We Are

Built by Someone
Who's Seen the Gap.

JB Estimating was founded on a simple observation: when disaster strikes, the families and communities affected shouldn't have to wait.

Justin has been in the restoration industry since 2018, working alongside top restoration companies across Hawaii and Florida. Over the years, he saw the same problem repeat itself — bottlenecks between contractors and insurance adjusters that slowed everything down, leaving property owners in limbo when they needed resolution most.

Based in Tampa, FL, we see firsthand the toll that restoration delays take on local families and communities — and we take that seriously. Supporting the contractors who do the work is how we support the people who need it most.

🎯

Our Mission

To close the gap between contractors and adjusters — so restoration moves faster, claims get paid, and communities recover sooner.
