Homeowners fill out your contact form, then go quiet. This answers them in two minutes.

A button on your website. The homeowner answers 8 questions and gets a price range by email, in your name. You get the lead with the takeoff and a draft proposal already done.

Free for 14 days, no card. If no homeowner has used it by then, I add more time, so you only pay once it has brought you a lead.

35 seconds: a homeowner designs a deck on a builder's site and sees the price. The builder gets the lead with every detail.

See it live with your prices before you pay

Email me two of your recent deck quotes (or your price per square foot) and your website. I build your real page, with your name, your boards and your numbers, and put the button on a copy of your homepage so you can click through it like a customer would. Takes me about a day. You pay only when you've seen it. martin@deckquotenow.com

Founding builders: 3 months free

The first three builders, in three different counties, get it free for 3 months. In return I ask for an honest sentence about it after the first month, with your company name, for this page. Write me with your county.

One builder per county

I only put this on one builder's site in each county. Whoever takes a county keeps it for as long as they're a customer, and I turn the next builder in that county away. The point is that the homeowner gets a number from you in two minutes and doesn't go call the next guy; that only works if the next guy doesn't have it too.

What happens when someone clicks it

Homeowner

Size, height, material, railing, stairs, old deck removal, ZIP, contact info, and they watch their deck get drawn on the screen as they answer. Takes 90 seconds on a phone. They get a range like "$9,600 to $12,100" by email, with your name and number on it, and a note that you'll confirm after a site visit.

You

An email the same minute: their name and phone, the deck, the range they saw, the material takeoff with big-box pricing and sales tax, labor as one line, the assumptions, and a proposal draft you can send after the visit. Reply to the email and you're talking to the homeowner. The lead is yours alone, never resold or shared with other builders. You also get a text when one comes in (if you want it), a page with all your leads where you tag each one called, quoted or won, and a reminder if one goes 45 minutes without a call.

How your price is figured

Your price is your cost plus what you charge. When a homeowner designs a deck on your site, the tool builds that deck on paper the way you would at the lumber counter: every joist at 16 inches on center, the beam, the posts by height, hangers, footings and concrete, the deck boards in stock lengths, railing by the foot, stairs by the step. It adds the waste percentage you chose, prices the list at current big-box lumber and hardware prices (or your own supplier prices if you enter them), adds your markup, then your labor from your crew size, your day rate and the days you told it a deck that size takes.

The homeowner sees a range in about two minutes. You get the lead with the materials list and the labor days already worked out. It is an estimate, and you confirm it in person before anyone signs, but it starts from your numbers, so it lands close. Rather keep it simple? You can also run on typical prices for your area, or typical prices plus a percentage.

A homeowner who has seen your price range and still leaves a phone number is a qualified lead. The ones who were never going to pay for a deck drop out before you drive anywhere.

Why it exists

I build decks. Homeowners would fill out my contact form while I was on a job, I'd answer that night, and by then they'd already talked to someone else. Whoever answers first usually gets the site visit. So I built this. It's new, and you'd be one of the first builders on it, which is why it's cheap and why I install it for you myself.

Three ways to put it on your site, easiest first

  1. A link. Works on any website plan, your Google Business Profile and your Facebook page. Add it as a button that says "Get an instant quote."
  2. One line of code you paste once, like a chat widget. WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, GoDaddy, Weebly: <script src="https://deckquotenow.com/embed.js?b=yourname"></script>
  3. Your web person pastes it. I send exact steps for your platform and stay on email with you until it works. I never ask for your website password.

Questions builders ask

My prices change too much. It shows a range, not a number, and you confirm the final price after the site visit. Your pricing updates any time by text.

I don't want to give out prices online. Lead-only mode: the homeowner sees "we'll call you with a number," and you still get the full internal estimate.

What do homeowners see? Your name, your logo, your phone. Deck Quote Now shows up only in small print at the bottom. Click through the demo as a homeowner would.

Where do the numbers come from? Current big-box material pricing for your metro, local labor rates, and the way I price my own jobs: materials plus tax, labor as one line, options priced separately, assumptions stated. You can hand me 3 to 5 of your past proposals and I calibrate it to how you actually price.

What if someone in my county already has it? Then I tell you no and point you to the sample demo so you can see what you missed. First to pay gets the county. If you pay and it turns out your county is taken, full refund the same day.

How do I cancel? The billing portal, two clicks, no email needed. First 30 days, full refund either way.

How do I reach you? martin@deckquotenow.com. I answer during the day.
