Cranes, scaffolds, lifts, drying equipment, HVAC replacement scope, concrete block wall repair. Xactimate prices the trade work; the access, equipment, and missing-scope package around it is where supplements get contested. Each calculator here sizes the work from your inputs, prices it from published public rate schedules or the Xactimate catalog, and writes a short justification you can paste straight into a supplement. Planning estimates, not formal quotes.
Size a mobile crane from the pick weight, radius, and height, or just describe the job (RTU swap, tree over a house, steel, trusses, signs) and let it derive the numbers.
Open calculator → Lifting & accessTurn a facade into scaffold square footage, rental months, and a cited cost range.
Open calculator → Lifting & accessPick the right scissor or boom lift for the working height and price the rental by day, week, or month.
Open calculator → DryingSize air movers and dehumidifiers for a dry-out using the IICRC S500 method.
Open calculator → DryingPack drying equipment onto the available circuits under the NEC 80 percent rule, and size a generator when the panel cannot run it.
Open calculator → MechanicalTurn a one-line AC replacement into the full Xactimate scope: matched system, code items, and rooftop access. Residential and commercial.
Open calculator → StructuralBuild a concrete block wall repair scope with filled cells, tie beams, lintels, dowels, and shoring, not just plain block.
Open calculator → InteriorEstimate drywall, tape, texture, paint, and baseboard quantities for a room repair.
Open calculator → DebrisTurn tear-out quantities into debris weight and the right dumpster size.
Open calculator →Every weight band, capacity class, and rate these calculators use is synthesized from public sources, and the tables are published as citable reference pages with the primary source on every value. Check them, cite them in a supplement, or argue with them.
AI Estimate Assistant, from Antero Trail, turns field notes, photos, and floor plans into carrier-ready Xactimate estimates. The calculator on this page is one piece of that engine, pulled out and made free. In the app, these numbers come out of your field notes automatically. Describe the loss once and the estimate, the equipment package, and the justification write themselves.
A crane day, six weeks of scaffold, or a room full of drying equipment can move a claim by five figures, and these are exactly the items adjusters push back on because the sizing rationale is missing. A number without a method is an invitation to cut it.
Every calculator here shows its work: the sizing rule it applied, the published rate schedule it priced from, and the site factors that changed the answer. That is the difference between "crane: $4,500" and a package you can defend on the phone with a desk adjuster.
These calculators produce planning estimates from published public rate schedules. They are not a formal quote. Confirm equipment, access, and pricing with a licensed operator or rental yard before you rely on any number for an estimate.
