Who it's for
For remodelers and handymen who quote from room sizes
Measure the rooms once and the file does the rest: the takeoff, the hours, the cost and the quote.
Labor hours come from your quantities and your own production rates and crew cost. The prices are starter prices, so replace them with your own.
It gives estimates only. It does not size structure, and it does not cover electrical, plumbing, gas or roof work.
