Between swampy summers, sudden storms and distinctive architectural styles, New Orleans homes put every square foot of flooring to the test. Moisture-laden air can swell boards, historic subfloors may be uneven, and raised shotgun houses require careful acoustic underlayment. Homeowners and contractors alike need more than generic price books—they need precision built on local data. That is exactly what CountBricks delivers to neworleans flooring contractors every day.

A flooring crew using CountBricks landed a 1,100 sq ft Uptown hardwood refinish after the homeowner’s previous contractor ghosted. Here’s how the project unfolded:
1. On Friday at 4 p.m. the crew measured each room with voice input. CountBricks generated a full sand-and-finish estimate—labor, stain, water-based poly and quarter-round replacement—in under five minutes.
2. The AI pulled live pricing from their preferred local supplier, showing a weekend sale on finish materials. Savings were instantly passed to the client, who signed digitally before dinner.
3. Saturday morning, tasks imported directly into the crew’s CountBricks schedule. Material orders auto-populated for curbside pickup.
4. By Sunday evening the floors gleamed, and the invoice—mirroring the original estimate—was sent with one tap. Payment hit their account Monday.
