Home builder estimates correctly with accurate materials forecast

“There were a lot of fees that we were eating or not including in our proposals. Adding cost items has really helped us protect our margins but has also helped as we continue to do fast, high-level quotes and bids. Spending intentional time to set up cost items has and will save us thousands of dollars.”

We love the Customer Portal because we can place information, client selections, contracts and plans. It’s a great tool to connect us with the homeowner and keep them heavily involved. They just feel so much more ownership on their own project using Buildertrend.

There are real dollars that would have gotten lost if we weren’t using Buildertrend. I can guarantee that previously when we didn’t have Buildertrend, over the course of a year we would lose thousands of dollars by the time the year was done. It all adds up with the receipts, small expenses that we paid for with a credit card. Those items were forgotten about and wouldn’t be invoiced to the client. That’s real money!

When a project manager posts pictures to Daily Logs, the whole team sees them. We’ve actually caught errors by saying, ‘Hey, this doesn’t look right in the photo.’ It gets the conversation going, and we’ve saved tremendously because we’ve gotten ahead of a problem before it’s too late
