Hello-

You do have several ways you can do this in Estimator – regarding hourly rates. Two examples – let’s say you have a $400 window component and you pay your installer $50 to install that window. You could then use COMPONENT tab and assign the unit price for the column ($400) (attribute of QUANTITY – default) and unit of EA – then click on the + button to create a new cost entry and keep attribute of quantity – use *(# of hours) in the multiplier, unit rate for labor and HRS (or whatever you use) in the units displayed – save.

Then each similar window component you select will total $450 – pick two and it is $900, etc.

OR – you could use Quotes if you want to to enter unit rate and number of hours.

Hope this helps and please let me know if you have any other questions.

Regards,
John Brock
