Problems solved by building quotes

Making quotes for renovations and building work quickly and without mistakes

Before

A renovation company takes two afternoons over each quote, adding up by hand in a spreadsheet. One measuring mistake costs it money on the job.

After

It measures, chooses its line items and the quote adds itself up, with no mistakes in the sums.

How it removes it
  1. You save your line items once, with their unit and their price: metre, hour, unit or lump sum.

  2. You enter the job's measurements and each line item is calculated and added up by itself.

Quotes for building work the same day, not in a week.

Program for quotes and measurements for building and renovation work

Before

An installer writes the measurements in a notebook at the customer's house and then types them up by hand on the computer, at night.

After

They note the measurements on the visit and they're already in the quote.

How it removes it
  1. Every measurement goes into its line item in the quote, without copying it from a notebook.

  2. If a measurement changes, the quote recalculates by itself.

You measure once, and the quote makes itself.

Before

A heating and air-conditioning installer starts each quote by copying the last one. One Tuesday they send one with another customer's name and terms on it, and that customer reads it.

After

Every quote comes out of your template, with your logo, your terms and the customer's details filled in.

How it removes it
  1. Your quote template, with your logo and your terms, fills in with the customer's details.

  2. The customer accepts it and signs it from their phone.

Not one more quote copied from the previous one.

  2. Before sending it you see the margin on each line item and on the total.
