What happens here

Navigate to the 'Workareas + Pricing' tab within the LMN software. This is where the core of your estimate will be built. Click 'Add Work Area' to break down the project into manageable sections (e.g., 'Paver Patio', 'Outdoor Lighting', 'Lawn Repair'). For each work area, use the 'Add Items + Templates' feature to incorporate specific labor, equipment, and material components required for that task. The software categorizes items into tabs like 'Labor', 'Equip', 'Material', 'Subs' (subcontractors), and 'Other'.

Goal: Structure the project estimate by defining work areas and adding necessary resources.
