Great app, I use it very often and it's very accurate. Only one issue i noticed when using the advanced rafter function. The 'total rise' never seems to be right. It's off by about 3". Other then that it is a very well built app and I hope this issue could be resolved

I'm a framing carpenter and I loved. To bad I can't download on the iPhone.

Has an option to deduct ridge for advanced rafters but does not do it.

U70%

Basically I'm a sales rep for a company that's in the top 25 out of the the top 500 home remodeling contractors. And my only question regards roofing calculator. Why does it only provide one set of length and width it would be nice to see a length x width for plain #1 and another length times width for plain #2 because after all not all homes are square some are L shaped and other dimensions as well which in this case I typically determine the overall number of squares by split them into 2 different areas

Can you add something in for pier block. The spacing. How many needed for a deck. But did rechecking on my own math, realized I over shot on balusters and risers on steps. I hate the idea of paying for something. But was encouraged after reading your reviews and noticed you were Johnny on the spot. Contacting and willing to make this a incredible app. Have a great day.

Being a DIYer I find myself referring to this app because of its usefulness. I've had this app for over 3 years and it continues to improve. Kudos to the developer for keeping it up to date. Update: As of May 2016 I'm still using this app.

Y70%
by Y####:

I am most happy with your paid app calculator; however, consider adding more features to the tile section. Such as grout width/spacing; the 3, 4, 5 rule; layout parameters; tile runs; use the euclidean algorithm to find the ideal tile size for a given space based on available tile size options. Thank you for considering and always improving your app.

Unless you're a drop ceiling Mechanic you can't beat this app. Well worth the small price.

Been using this app across many devices for a couple of years now. Very happy with its functional applications. Keep it up!

I've used this app on 3 phones now and it's very handy. Would it be possible to add a ductulater to it or would that be to specialized?

This app is just awesome ..I use it a lot

S70%
by S####:

After much consideration i purchased this app as i find the drawings useful. I do note that while metric input is accepted for the calculators, it is not available for specifying width of the mortar joints in a masonry wall. It would be great if this could please be rectified along with the other imperial only figures (the drill pilot hole chart for example). A pitch guage would also be a welcome addition.

S70%
by S####:

I would give this a 4 star because its pretty good for many things, but the Measurement (to multiply tape-measure fractions like "11'÷3-7/8 = x" ) has me totally stumped or it doesn't work. I've had to download another calculator to use that function.

S70%
by S####:

Custom residential project manager, this app is just what you need if your application and materials are constantly changing. Makes me more efficient, and anyone familiar with construction knows time is money.

S70%
by S####:

This is one of the most complete construction calculators I've tested. At least they didn't over do it, by adding unnecessary formulas not related to construction like some have done. This is one comprehensive construction calculator.

Great app saves a lot of time.

Surprised .......!!!!! There is not available the volume of trapezoid ... If you put value for trapezoid then it comes with area of trapezium.......what a shame.....!!!!!! Hello plz tell me What is the trapezium and trapezoid ?????!??

I need a siding materials app, this one sucked even more than the free apps, I want my money back!!

Z70%
by Z####:

Finally I found a calculator that I am sure will not get lost or broken. The radius function, drop ceilings, wall framing and more, are functions are I use in a regular basis, and now I have all them together in my phone. What else can I say about this app. Great!! And well worth the price.

I'm a residential and commercial general contractor and I use it all the time. Works well on my Motorola droid max.

Well worth the money. Its actually better than any of the handhelds you can buy at the home centers. I really should use it more , its capable of so much

Great app

C70%
by C####:

Works great. It would be awesome if there was a method to square up large angled walls that are at 30 degrees or whatever degree

N70%
by N####:

This is a must have for any builder, my only niggle is that the rafter length calculater asks for the pitch in a ratio over 12", If it had a option of degrees it would be perfect.

I build inground pools and use this to square them up. Works great!
