General contractors & builders
Run the whole build from one place, from first walkthrough to final punch list.
A remodel or addition touches a dozen trades, a pile of paperwork and a client who wants to know what is happening this week. We give clients a clear front door and a portal to follow along, and keep bids, subs, permits, draws and costs organized behind it.
What we set up
Proof, consultations and budget guidance up front
Visitors browse past projects by type, book a consultation or site visit, and answer a few questions about scope and budget range. The assistant shares general ranges you have set and never quotes a final price or a start date it cannot confirm.
A client portal for the whole job
Each client sees the schedule, photos, selections waiting on a decision, signed change orders and invoices in one login. Draws and deposits are paid through your own compliant processor.
The back office that protects your margin
Bids with allowances, subcontractor and vendor records with license and insurance dates, lien waivers, permits and inspections, daily logs, punch lists and job costing sit on one board, so nothing is held in someone's truck or inbox.
Where this business gets hard
Scope creep and unpriced changes
A client asks for one small thing, then another, and the final bill is a fight. A change order with the cost and schedule impact, approved in writing before the work starts, keeps everyone on the same page.
Juggling subs, vendors and paperwork
Every trade has a license, insurance and a schedule, and a lapse can leave you exposed. Tracking those dates and collecting lien waivers with each payment keeps the file clean.
Selections and lead times stall the job
A client who picks windows late can idle a crew for weeks. A selections list with decision dates and ordering lead times shows what is holding things up before it does.
Cash flow between draws
Labor and materials go out before the next draw comes in. A draw schedule tied to milestones, plus job costing against the bid, shows where the money stands each week.
Set up for the way you work
Not every general contractors & builders business runs the same way. We adjust the setup to fit yours.
- Remodeling contractor
- Many smaller jobs with clients living in the home. Daily communication, selections, protection of finished spaces and tight punch lists drive the setup.
- Additions and renovations
- Structural work, engineering input and inspections in sequence. Permits, inspection stages and the order of trades matter most.
- Custom home builder
- Long projects with many selections, a draw schedule, often a lender's inspector and a large subcontractor roster. Job costing and document control carry the weight.
- Light commercial and tenant build-outs
- Bids with specifications, certificates of insurance, owner and tenant coordination and progress billing to a business.
Busy seasons and slow ones
Demand often rises in spring and early summer as homeowners plan projects, and again in fall as people try to finish before the holidays. Weather can slow exterior work in winter or rainy seasons, and permit offices have their own busy stretches. Slow months are a good time to follow up on old bids, run design and pre-construction consultations and lock in lead times for next season's materials.
What your customers ask before they book
Your AI assistant and website are set up to answer these before anyone has to call.
- Roughly what will this cost, and what is included versus an allowance?
- How long will it take, and what could change the schedule?
- Are you licensed and insured, and can I see proof?
- How do payments and draws work, and how much is due upfront?
- How are changes handled, and who approves them?
- What warranty comes with the work, and who do I call afterward?
Common mistakes we help you avoid
- Starting work before the contract, permit and deposit are in place.
- Letting a change happen on a handshake, with no written change order and no price.
- Paying a subcontractor without a lien waiver or current insurance on file.
- Skipping job costing, so the real margin is only known after the job closes. Lien, contract and licensing rules vary by state, and the owner stays responsible.
Licensing, contracts and liens vary by state
Contractor licensing, permit requirements, insurance minimums, written-contract rules, deposit limits, lien and lien-waiver procedures and consumer-protection rules differ by state and often by city. We build the bid, contract, change order and draw steps around your own license, templates and counsel's guidance, and the site never gives legal advice or makes certification claims. The assistant does not promise a price, a start date or a finish date it cannot confirm. You stay responsible for meeting the rules that apply to your work.
