Straight answers

Is this calculator really free?+
Yes. No signup, no login, nothing stored. Run as many jobs as you want. The paid GutterPilot adds saved jobs, a monthly are-you-making-money dashboard, and a done-for-you website.
Where do the default costs come from?+
Every default is a labeled 2026 industry range, shown only as a starting point. Always edit each field to your real coil cost, your real loaded labor rate, and your real overhead. Your numbers drive the result, not ours.
What is a loaded labor rate?+
It is the true hourly cost of a worker: their base wage plus burden (payroll taxes, workers comp, liability insurance, and benefits). Burden commonly adds 30 to 60 percent on top of the wage, so a 22 dollar wage can cost you 30 dollars or more per hour. Pricing off the bare wage is how margins quietly disappear.
Gross margin or net, which one matters?+
Both, for different reasons. Gross margin is what is left after the direct costs of the job. It tells you if the job was priced right. Net is what is left after your overhead too (trucks, insurance, advertising, office). It tells you if the business is making money. Add your overhead percent to see both.
Is my data saved or sent anywhere?+
Your job numbers stay in your browser and are never saved or sent. The only thing we log is anonymous usage (that the tool was used, and your answer if you tap the quick price question), with no personal info and none of your numbers. Saving jobs is a feature of the paid GutterPilot, where your data stays yours.
