FAQ
Plain answers.
Is this a contractor bid?
No. It is a planning estimate that helps you understand the likely budget range before drawings, engineering, city review, and contractor pricing.
Why is the range wide?
Early construction budgets should be ranges because site conditions, structural scope, utility work, finishes, permits, and contractor availability can move the number fast.
Do I need to enter contact information?
No. The estimate appears first. Contact information is only for saving the estimate or asking for a local review.
