Custom Software for Contractors & Trades
Run your jobs from your phone, not from memory
You're great at the work. It's the quotes, the scheduling, and the chasing-payment part that eats your evenings. We build software that takes that office work off your plate so you can stay on the tools.
Sound familiar?
- Quotes get built from memory and napkin math, and when material prices jump, your margins quietly take the hit.
- Job status lives in your head. If someone asks where the Hendersons' remodel stands, the answer requires you, personally, every time.
- Crew scheduling is a nightly round of phone tag, and one sick call in the morning scrambles the whole day.
- Invoices go out late and follow-ups fall through the cracks. You've done the work, but the money's still sitting in someone else's bank account.
What we build for contractors & trades
Quoting tool with your real pricing
Your materials, your labor rates, your markup — loaded in once, so every estimate starts from the same numbers. Update a price and every future quote reflects it. Send a professional PDF from the driveway.
Job tracker with photos from the field
Every job on one board: status, notes, and photos your crew snaps on-site. You see progress without driving out, and when a customer disputes something, the timestamped photo is on file.
Crew scheduling
Assign crews to jobs on one calendar everyone sees on their phones. Move a job, and the right people get notified automatically — one place to check instead of a round of 6 a.m. calls.
Automatic invoice reminders
Invoices go out when the job closes, and polite reminders follow up on schedule until you're paid. The follow-up runs on a calendar instead of on your memory.
Frequently asked questions
What does custom software cost for a contracting business?
Standard rates are a $650/month platform fee plus $49/month per staff login, adjusted to the project and confirmed in a written quote before we build anything. You, your office manager, and three foremen signing in comes to $895/month. The monthly fees cover hosting, monitoring, backups, security updates, bug fixes, and email support — when something breaks, fixing it is on us. Text messaging, if you use it, is billed separately. New features after launch are $150/hour, approved by you in writing first, and a larger build can carry a one-time fee that's quoted up front. Here's a full breakdown of what custom software really costs.
How fast can we be up and running?
A focused tool, like a quoting app or a job board, typically takes 1–2 weeks from kickoff; a full system with quoting, scheduling, and invoicing typically takes 4–8 weeks. Those are ranges from our past projects in other industries, not promises. AI-assisted development is a big part of why it's weeks rather than months.
My guys aren't going to learn complicated software. Will they actually use it?
That's the reason to build custom. Off-the-shelf tools are often packed with features nobody on your crew needs. We build only the screens your crew uses — big buttons, made for a phone, simple enough to use one-handed on a job site — with email support included and hands-on crew training available as part of your quote.
Our job history is in spreadsheets and old invoices. Can you bring it over?
Yes. Data migration is scoped and priced in your written quote. Your past jobs, customers, and pricing come with you, so estimates and job lookups work from day one. Not sure the spreadsheet has really hit its limit? Check the signs you've outgrown spreadsheets.
