For
Deck builders using SketchUp Pro
Worth noticing
Material calculations account for stock lengths, saw kerf, offcut reuse, and a user-set waste allowance.

Field notes

Users choose presets for lumber, decking, hardware, and prices, then can revise settings and rebuild the model in place. The material workflow accounts for stock lengths, saw kerf, offcut reuse, and a waste allowance; reports include CSV, a scaled cut diagram, and a client estimate with labor, markup, tax, and terms. The page specifies SketchUp Pro 2022 or newer on Windows and says the extension works offline.
