Want an estimator like this for your business?

This trim estimator is the original, built by a working finish carpenter for his own business. Your version uses your real rates for base, crown, casing, and more, and sends estimate emails to your customers automatically. It filters out tire-kickers so you spend your time on real jobs.

Common questions

Can I use my own pricing?

Yes. The demo uses placeholder rates, but your version runs on your numbers for every trim type. Baseboard and shoe by the linear foot, crown by complexity, casing per opening, wainscoting, chair rail, and shelving. The pricing logic is built around how you quote trim, not a generic template.

How do the estimate emails work?

When someone finishes an estimate, the tool emails them a branded room-by-room breakdown, and sends you a notification with their contact info and every trim option they selected. You can see both sides in this demo by submitting your own email. Every lead lands in your inbox with the scope already itemized.

Does it price crown molding by complexity?

Yes, and that is the kind of detail that sets this apart. The demo prices a simple single-piece crown run differently from a built-up multi-piece crown, because the labor is genuinely different. Most quick estimators would lump all crown into one rate and misquote the fancy work. Your version can encode however many complexity levels you price.

How does this help me filter out tire-kickers?

Someone who fills out a full room-by-room trim estimate and hands over their contact info is showing real intent. Curious browsers rarely do. Giving people a ballpark up front also sets price expectations, so the ones who call already know the range. You spend less time driving out to look at jobs that were never going to book.

How is this different from a generic estimating app?

Most estimating apps are built for the contractor to use in the office. This is built for your customer to use on your website, as a lead-generation front end. The trim estimator is actually the original tool this whole set grew from, built by a working finish carpenter for his own carpentry business, then adapted for other trades. It does one job well: turn a website visitor into a qualified lead with a real number attached.

Can it handle casing and per-opening pricing?

Yes. Door and window casing prices per opening rather than by rough linear foot, which is how casing actually gets quoted and installed. Combined with linear-foot pricing for running trim like base and crown, the estimate reflects the real mix of work in a room. Your version uses your own per-opening and per-foot rates.
