CD Estimator
- 2009 Version
Complete Construction Cost
Estimating Software
If your computer has Windows™ and a CD-ROM drive, CD
Estimator puts at your fingertips 85,000 construction costs for new
construction, home improvement, remodeling, renovation & insurance
repair, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, painting and concrete & masonry and,
new for 2009, earthwork and heavy equipment.
You'll also have the
National Estimator program – a
stand-alone estimating program for Windows that Remodeling magazine
called a "computer wiz." To help you create professional-looking
estimates, the disk includes over 40 construction estimating and bidding
forms in a format that's perfect for nearly any word processing or
spreadsheet program for Windows. And to top it off, a 70-minute
interactive video teaches you how to use this CD-ROM to estimate
construction costs.
Included with National
Estimator CD-ROM:
- Job Cost Wizard – turns estimates into
invoices and exports both in QuickBooks
- Free Online Technical Support – for
the National Estimator Software
- Free Monthly National Estimator Updates
– Updates to the 2009 costbooks and zip code modification factors
are updated monthly. Monthly price updates on the Web are free and
automatic all during 2009. You'll be prompted when it's time to
collect the next update. A connection to the Web is required.
