If you have a business or you need to use such an application for personal use in order to see an estimation of the costs required to build a structure, you can use National Construction Estimator in order to see how much you would have to take out of your pocket in order to build. Craftsman Book Company's databases are compatible with this tool so you can get realistic estimates.

These databases include everything that you would need, from the price of the foundation to prices for windows, roofs, masonry, concrete and everything else that will be found inside a house or another kind of building. You can also add labor rates and then see the final price with taxes included and much more.
