Enter job details to see your margin breakdown

That was one job. What about the other forty?

Running one job through a calculator tells you what happened. Running every job through one tells you where your money actually goes — which crews are profitable, which job types are quietly bleeding you, and how much margin leaks out through commissions and card fees you stopped noticing.

The Rough In Job Costing Dashboard does exactly what this calculator does, across your entire job list at once:

✓ Paste your invoices and costs straight from your CRM or accounting files

✓ Every job automatically rated Good / Okay / Bad / Unprofitable — same benchmarks as this calculator

✓ Service & retrofit vs. new construction tracked separately

✓ See your true margin across the whole business on one screen

No subscription. No software to learn. One spreadsheet, yours forever — works in Excel and Google Sheets.
