Re: Cost Estimating????????


You can also look up Exactimate.

I went to the remodel show in Baltimore and saw another new program. I will look for the information in the many bags I took from the show and post it tomorrow. It seemed like a decent program for $500.00. Developed for remodeling with a scheduling feature similar to microsoft project.

Where in Mass are you from?

Re: Cost Estimating????????


I found a new estimating software program called ELMS Estimating Leads and Management System. The owner and developer is Scott Gerold. The part I thought was interesting was that it also allowed you to customize proposals and had a scheduling component very similar to Microsoft Project. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me about the program.

best
