Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

How accurate are the calculations?

Our calculators use industry-standard coefficients, coverage rates, and waste factors based on manufacturer specs and building codes. Results are professional-grade estimates — always verify with your supplier for final ordering quantities.

Is it really free for homeowners?

Yes. Homeowners can use 16 calculators, browse and contact contractors, post jobs, and write reviews — all completely free, forever. No credit card required, no trial period, no hidden fees.

How does the contractor marketplace work?

Homeowners post what they need (e.g., "kitchen tile installation") and contractors respond with quotes. You can also browse contractor profiles by trade and location, read verified reviews, and contact them directly. Contractors need a Pro subscription to create their profile and respond to jobs.

Can I cancel my subscription anytime?

Yes, cancel anytime with zero penalties. You keep access until the end of your billing period. Your saved projects and calculations remain accessible on the free plan.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Every calculator works without internet on any device. Available as a web app, and native iOS and Android apps. Price comparison and marketplace features require an internet connection.

What suppliers do you compare prices from?

Free users can check prices at Home Depot, Lowe's, and Menards. Pro adds Floor & Decor, Ferguson, BMC, 84 Lumber, and Ace Hardware. Business adds ABC Supply, Beacon, SRS Distribution, Builders FirstSource, US LBM, and Graybar — 14 suppliers total.
