Fast answers
  • Use Area and Yardage toggles on concrete, flooring, and siding tools.
  • Waste defaults to 10%; raise it for complex layouts or heavy cutting.
  • Business calculators follow the Glossary for markup vs margin, burden, CAC, and tax math.
2026 Compliance
  • All-electric new building mandate was slated for January 1, 2026 but is currently on hold (NYS Climate Act)—still plan electric service in bids where all-electric or electric-ready applies.
  • Town of Marcy Unified Development Code applies to local jobs; verify zoning and site plan requirements before permitting.
  • Use Tax Save calculator with ST-124 toggle for capital improvements to stay sales-tax compliant.
