Construction software for masonry contractors — estimate block, brick, stone, mortar, and labor in one place. Built for masonry contractors running structural, veneer, and hardscape work.
A standard 8-inch CMU wall takes one count; veneer brick is another. Hand-counting on plan sets leaves real money on the table.
Mortar bags per 1,000 brick or per 100 CMU is one of those numbers everyone knows but few estimators actually include in the bid line by line.
Cultured stone vs natural, full bed vs adhered — each has a different unit price and labor rate. One generic stone line item under-bids the harder jobs.
Measure wall area, count blocks or bricks, and calculate mortar volume directly on the plan. Bond pattern (running, stack, Flemish) determines block count and waste — built into the math.
Reusable assemblies for CMU walls, brick veneer, stone facing, retaining walls — each pattern (8'' CMU, modular brick, dry-stack stone) has its own block count, mortar yield, and labor rate.
Proposals show wall scope, bond pattern, block-and-brick counts, mortar volume, and labor — the breakdown a GC or owner wants for change-order math. Digital signatures lock the scope.
