Who this is for

Built for remodeling contractors

Kitchen, bath, basement and whole home remodelers doing 20 to 200 projects a year, who win work on design and lose margin on change orders nobody signed, and who have outgrown a generic contractor app or a bid spreadsheet.

Bid tracking that shows where the money is

Every bid is a version with its margin. The pipeline shows bids out, bids viewed and bids gone quiet, and a follow up task appears on day three and day ten so good leads stop going cold.

Selections the client signs, not remembers

Finishes and fixtures are chosen in a client portal with photos and prices against the allowance. Approval is a signed record, so the tile argument in week six is settled in one click.

Change orders before the work, not after

A change order is priced, sent and signed on a phone before the trade starts. Signed change orders roll into the next progress invoice, which is where most remodelers recover the margin they used to give away.

A schedule of trades the subs can see

Demolition, plumbing rough in, electrical, inspection, cabinets and tile in order, with each subcontractor texted their dates and reminded the day before.

Questions we get asked

What is the best remodeling CRM?

The best remodeling CRM is the one that matches how you sell and build. Most remodelers need lead follow up, versioned bids with margin, client selections against allowances, signed change orders and a schedule of trades. A custom build gives you those five and nothing else, without a per user price that grows as you hire.

How much does a custom remodeling CRM cost?

A remodeling CRM with leads, bids, selections, change orders, scheduling, a client portal and QuickBooks sync typically costs 9,900 to 14,900 US dollars fixed, delivered in six to eight weeks. A bid and lead tracker on its own starts at 4,900. Hosting and support are optional at 290 dollars a month.

Can it track bids the way a bid tracking CRM does?

Yes. Each bid is a versioned record with line items by trade, allowances and margin, and the pipeline shows sent, viewed, revised, won and lost with the reason. Win rate by lead source and by salesperson is one report, so you can see which marketing actually produces signed contracts.

Can clients see progress in a portal?

Yes. Clients log in to see their schedule, approve selections and change orders, view photos the crew uploaded and pay progress invoices. It cuts the how is it going calls by more than half, and every approval they give is recorded with a date against the project.
