CountBricks’ AI estimator, instant invoice generator, and blueprint takeoff viewer all open in secure pop-up windows. If those windows are blocked, the platform can’t deliver live material pricing, task schedules, or labor totals. For field crews and office teams that rely on real-time numbers to win bids and keep builds on budget, blocked pop-ups translate into costly delays.
Search data shows that contractors type this phrase when their workflow stops cold. The intent is problem-solving, not research. They need a quick, tool-specific fix. This guide speaks directly to that urgency and tailors every step to CountBricks’ residential construction environment.

Sometimes the issue sits with a site-wide firewall rather than the local browser. CountBricks pop-ups use port 443 over HTTPS, so any blanket rule that restricts secondary windows can block functionality.
When pop-ups work, CountBricks immediately unlocks advanced workflows:

Pop-ups sometimes carry a stigma. CountBricks uses them only for authenticated sessions, encrypts every payload, and signs all API calls with rotating keys. Allowing our domain does not open the door to third-party ads; it simply authorizes essential functionality for your projects.
Knowing how to allow pop ups on a website is a small task with massive impact. Unlock CountBricks’ full AI toolset today and turn faster estimates into profitable, on-time residential projects.
Enabling pop-ups is only the first domino. Once CountBricks windows open freely, you can streamline every phase of a residential build. Here are three quick wins our project coaches recommend:
After activating pop-ups, Willow Creek’s site superintendent used the above upgrades to cut pre-construction time from ten days to three. Material overruns dropped 8%, and the client signed off on change orders digitally, eliminating paper delays. Explore more at CountBricks.com.
Pop-ups may look small, but they are the gateway to transformative residential construction workflows. Enable them once, and CountBricks does the heavy lifting from estimate to final inspection.
