Field notes
The project organizes home planning around measurements, candidate products, and entered prices, then describes outputs such as purchase quantities, option comparisons, contingency budgets, shopping lists, and phases. Its calculations are intended to include waste and package sizes rather than stopping at square footage or linear measurements. The site also draws a firm boundary around structural, electrical, plumbing, gas, permitting, and code-compliance questions, directing those decisions to other sources or professionals.
