Room-by-room flooring estimate

Customers get a ballpark price on the spot, with the math shown, and send the request when it fits their budget.

Enter the length x width of each room and the page adds 10% for waste, totals the square feet for the whole job, and uses your rate per square foot for each floor type ([your price]); the range is a ballpark until we measure in person.

    Example rates only, not real prices. Type your own rate and the math updates. The real version uses your prices and says "ballpark" until you've seen the job.

    What a flooring, window & paint business often pays every month, and what it could keep

    Who builds it

    One person you can call

    I'm Chris, and I run Praxis AI Solutions out of Mason City, Iowa. When something needs changing, you call or text me, not a support line. In the real version, customers get a ballpark from your own rates, book a free measure into an open slot, and get a text when their flooring is ordered, arrives, gets scheduled, and is done. You'd stop fielding the same status calls while you're on your knees in someone's kitchen. You approve every rate, time slot, and text before anything goes live.
