STOP GUESSING YOUR TRIM ORDERS.
WHY THIS ONE
- Everything in one file: base, shoe, crown + casing, boards to buy at your lengths, type sizes like 35 1/2, labor per foot or opening, nails, glue + caulk as a %. No add-ons to buy.
- Built for real use: gray cells are the only place you type, and formulas are protected so nothing breaks.
- A Start Here tab walks you through setup in minutes.
- Buy once: no subscription, no app, no monthly fee.
Room by room: enter the room size, door sides cased and windows. It works out baseboard, base shoe, crown, door casing, and window trim (Stool & Apron or Picture Frame), using your own casing width and reveal.
WHAT IT DOES
- Boards to buy for every profile, at your stock lengths and waste %. Casing also makes sure every door leg gets one unbroken board.
- Type sizes the way you read the tape: 35 1/2, 35-1/2 or 35.5. A typo turns red and blocks the price until you fix it.
- Price labor per foot by profile, per opening, or both.
- Consumables (nails, glue, caulk) as a % of material.
- Option to subtract door openings from baseboard, or not.
- Client price with your markup and materials-only tax.
- Client Proposal page: your logo and business info, scope of work (quantities only, never your costs), the total price, deposit, terms, and signatures. Prints on one page.
- A Start Here tab with step-by-step instructions.
This is a takeoff and estimating tool, not a cut-list or shop-drawing program.
Works In: Google Sheets (free Google account) on a computer or phone, AND Microsoft Excel: a tested Excel version (.xlsx) is included for Excel 365, Excel 2021 or newer, and free Excel for the web.
What You Get: a PDF with a link to make your own copy in your Google Drive, plus a download link for the Excel version.
Digital product.
WHAT THIS IS NOT (no surprises)
- Not a stair calculator: no rise/run, skirt boards, treads, or railings. Price stairs separately.
- Not a wainscoting or wall-panel layout tool.
- Not a cut list or 3D design program: it tells you what to buy and what to charge.
