I Need A Flooring Proposal With A Grid


Could somebody please send me a copy of a flooring proposal with a grid to show lay out and if it has a break down of costs like grout, labor, etc. that would be great or if somebody knows of a good site to visit on the web that would be great Thank you

Re: I Need A Flooring Proposal With A Grid


We use a "Job Invoice" with carbon copy that we buy in 100 packs at staples for $25

you can run them through your printer and do your own header with logo

then jam in your clipboard and pop em out at estimates, fill in materials and labor and your golden

we use grid paper and scale and pencil for layouts

also, we use google sketchup for 3D model images, and Kerkythea to render the images to make them look real. Easier to show customer how their shower is gonna look rather than explaining

example in first pic of our website gallery, the bath with green walls and mosaic tub surround, it's a model and render of a bathroom remodel

check it out: http://www.cupantileandpaint.com/gallery.html

Matt, can you explain how you use Kerkythea with Sketchup? Can you just take any Sketchup rendering and import it into Kerkythea and let it do it's thing? How does it work?

And what is with the music on your site?

Re: I Need A Flooring Proposal With A Grid


you don't like our mood music?

model your image in sketchup
and open it in kerkythea
you can tweak your materials and use your same cam views from sketchup platform

check the sketchup and kerky website forums

I use Dal Tiles website quite often for floors. They have a calculator that will let you lay out the floor, with cabinets and whatever and it will figure up how much tile, mud, and grout you need to do the job.
