Terms of Use

By using Count Before You Cut, you agree to use the calculators, guides, and content for general planning and educational purposes only. If you do not agree with these terms, do not use the site.

Estimates only

Calculator results are estimates. Actual material needs and costs may vary based on product, layout, surface condition, waste, installation method, local requirements, weather, soil, structure, and site conditions. You are responsible for checking all measurements and product information before buying materials or starting work.

No professional advice

This site does not provide engineering, architectural, construction, code, legal, financial, electrical, plumbing, drainage, or safety advice. For structural, load-bearing, permit-related, drainage, electrical, plumbing, or other safety-critical work, consult a qualified professional or local code office.

Use at your own risk

You are responsible for deciding whether a project is safe and appropriate for DIY work. Always follow manufacturer instructions, product labels, tool manuals, protective-equipment guidance, and applicable laws or codes.

Content changes

We may update calculators, guides, formulas, assumptions, and these terms over time. We try to keep information useful, but we do not guarantee that every page is complete, current, or error-free.
