Is this result an exact order or quote?

No. It is a planning estimate based on the values you enter. Verify measurements, product specifications, labor assumptions, local requirements and supplier quantities before buying or contracting work.

Can I use different units or prices?

Use the units shown beside each field and enter current project-specific values. Where prices are included, use a recent local quote rather than a national average.

Why can the final result differ?

Field conditions, rounding, waste, installation method, product dimensions, code requirements and contractor practices can change the final quantity or cost.
