There is no plumbing or concrete slab calculator. Plumbing and concrete jobs go through the AI Estimate Builder, which has Plumbing and Concrete and foundation work types.
When a homeowner sends a quote, ContractorRise will create the contact, a lead and a draft quotation, and e-mail them the quote. You will set your own prices, by ZIP code if you need to, and confirm them before a calculator goes live. The jobs and prices in the screens on this page are samples, not quotes.
Questions from specialty trades.
Is there a plumbing calculator?
No. None of the 24 calculators is for plumbing. Plumbing jobs get the Plumbing work type in the AI Estimate Builder.
Is there a concrete slab calculator?
No. Concrete and flatwork go through the Estimate Builder's concrete and foundation work type. The sitework calculators cover excavation, trenching, retaining walls and asphalt.
Does the HVAC calculator do a Manual J?
No. It prices the job from the home's details at your rates. It is not an ACCA Manual J or Manual D load calculation.
Does the panel calculator check code?
No. It prices the upgrade at your rates. It does not do NEC load calculations, check code or file permits.
Does it dispatch technicians?
No. There is no service dispatch, technician app, maintenance agreement or membership plan.
Is there a window or door calculator?
No. Window and door jobs go through the Estimate Builder's window and door replacement work type.
