Markup & Profit Tracking

See labor, material, sub cost, markup dollars, and gross margin at a glance — before you ever send a bid.

The problem

  • You don't find out your real margin until the job is already done
  • Markup gets applied inconsistently across items or estimates
  • A single missed cost can quietly wipe out your profit

  • Apply markup per item or globally across the whole estimate
