Components overview
Reusable insulation items - batts, rolls, blown, vapour barriers, edge tape, labor - that snap straight into a quote.
Components overview
Components are the building blocks of every insulation quote. Each one carries the material price, pack size, labor rate, and waste settings so you don't rebuild that maths every job. Build the library once, then quote from it forever.
What can be a component?
- Ceiling, floor, or wall batts (area)
- Loft roll laid between rafters (area + rafter pitch)
- Wall insulation measured plan-view (wall length × height)
- Blown-in or loose-fill insulation (bags by count or area)
- Vapour barrier or breather membrane (area)
- Edge sealing bead or insulation tape (lineal)
- Acoustic infill, fire stops, draught seals
- Labor (hours or days)
- Fixed items - delivery, scaffold hire, access charges
Why components matter
Set them up once and every quote after that is faster, more consistent, and harder to get wrong. You update a price once and every new quote uses the new price.
The library scales with the work you do. Insulation jobs range from a single loft top-up to a full envelope upgrade, and the same set of components covers both ends of that range.
Extras vs Main components
Most components are Main (core job items). Extras are a separate bucket for one-off items, items you want recorded but hidden from the customer quote, call-out fees, travel, or anything else that sits outside the main scope of work. See Components vs Extras.
Tier limits
| Plan | Components (lifetime) |
|---|---|
| Trial | 10 |
| Starter | 10 |
| Growth | 15 |
| Professional | 25 |
| Pro Plus | 50 |
New accounts are seeded with 8 starter components, so you start at 8 of your cap. Soft-deleted (inactive) components don't count toward the cap.
When you're at the cap, the + Add Component button opens an upgrade modal. Hard-delete components you no longer need to make room, or upgrade your tier.
For the full mechanics, see Tier limits.
