How is the database organized?
HomeTech has developed the estimating system by dividing the database into 25 divisions that correspond to the way remodelers work. The 25 divisions start with Plans and Permits followed by Tear-out, Excavation, Concrete, Masonry, Floor Framing, etc., all the way to Division 25, Clean-up. These 25 divisions are listed along the left side of the page when you are building an estimate. When you click on a division, a list of subdivisions open up underneath and the cost items of the highlighted subdivision appear on the right side of the screen. You build your estimate by going through the divisions and adding the appropriate items as you mentally go through the process in the order you would actually build the project.
