Download the 2026 planning benchmarks table
The CSV combines published industry benchmarks (such as Home Depot full-service guides) with explicitly noted modeled planning ranges (such as single-hung project variability). Methodology adjustments are model outputs; entered contractor quotes are user supplied—not vetted bids, certifications, or direct market survey observations across every row.
