Construction
Insulation Calculator
Estimates the cost of insulating walls, attics, or floors based on area, stud depth, insulation type, and price per square foot. Use it when planning a home energy upgrade or new construction build.

Construction
Roof Area Calculator
Calculate the true sloped surface area of a roof from its footprint dimensions and pitch angle. The slope multiplier (1/cos(pitch)) corrects for the fact that a pitched roof has more material area than the horizontal footprint it covers.
