Pole Barns & Metal Buildings estimate FAQ
Can I enter a kit price as one line?
Yes. Enter the kit as a lump-sum material item, then add labor and extras separately.
Will my customer see my costs?
No. The proposal shows only customer prices, in the level of detail you choose. Internal costs, markup, margin, and notes never appear.
Do the suggested items include prices?
No. Suggestions help you remember what belongs in the bid. You enter your own costs, so nothing is priced with made-up numbers.
