Yes—CountBricks designs integrated wellness suites. Our AI estimator instantly adds plumbing and chiller costs to your quote.

Basic tasks include wiping benches with a mild cleanser and ensuring heaters stay free of debris. The CountBricks app sends quarterly reminders.

A family in River Oaks wanted a four-person Houston sauna with floor-to-ceiling glass facing their pool. Using the CountBricks app, they recorded a 3-minute voice brief. Within ten minutes our AI engine produced:
• A 14-page estimate detailing cedar quantities, 6 kW heater specs, and low-E glazing
• Three finish options with live Houston material pricing
• A Gantt chart outlining a 6-day build schedule
The homeowner approved the quote digitally. Because CountBricks prefabricated wall panels off-site, on-property construction took only five working days—two days faster than local market averages. Post-completion surveys scored 9.8/10 for cleanliness and communication.
• Book electrical inspections early—Houston slots fill fast during summer remodel season.
• Opt for Wi-Fi-enabled controls to pre-heat from your phone and cut idle run-time costs.
• Ask CountBricks to integrate a hidden drainage channel; it speeds cleaning and prevents standing moisture.
If you envision a steam room, Himalayan salt wall, or cold plunge alongside your sauna, CountBricks layers each feature into one unified estimate. Our database recalculates HVAC loads, structural reinforcement, and waterproofing requirements in seconds—so you see the complete financial picture before signing.
