Use cases/Construction estimating

Estimating that stays connected after the quote goes out.

A construction estimate is only useful if it survives the rest of the job. Stairkey connects measured takeoff, estimate lines, client approvals, change orders, invoices, and files so the quote does not become a dead document.

Free for your first month — no credit card required.

Measurements are retyped into the quote.

The Takeoff Builder turns dimensions, openings, and finishes into quantities, then materializes that scope into the estimate.

Approved scope changes later.

Change orders are tracked against the original scope so added work is visible and priced.

The invoice loses the estimate context.

Finished work becomes the invoice, with status visible beside the job record.

Grounded in the product

Stairkey's construction calculators and Takeoff Builder share the same practical bias: feet-and-inches input, job-site language, and outputs meant for quoting and ordering.

Common questions

Does Stairkey include measured takeoff?

Yes. The Takeoff Builder turns room dimensions, openings, and finishes into formula-driven quantities and materializes them into estimate lines, so you don't retype measurements into the quote.

How are change orders handled after a quote is approved?

Change orders are tracked against the original approved scope, so added work stays visible and priced instead of buried in texts.

Can the estimate become the invoice?

Yes. Completed work becomes the invoice with payment status visible beside the job record, so the estimate context carries through to billing.
