Everything between the first call and the final payment
Draw your job. Let the numbers build themselves.
Create plans or upload existing drawings, then turn your measurements into a detailed estimate using calculated material quantities and labour costs. Adjust your pricing, review the breakdown and build a quote from the same workflow.
- Real wall build-ups, roofs, dormers, steels and openings, drawn to the millimetre
- Existing, proposed and demolished work on the same plan
- Trace over an image of the plans, scaled with two taps
- Scale drawing sheets: plans, elevations, roof and foundations at 1:50 to 1:200
- Made for a tablet on site, older iPads included
On site all day. Quoting all night.
The enquiry is in a text, the measurements are on a bit of plasterboard and the prices are in your head. The quote goes out a week late, and the job goes to whoever got theirs in first.
Turn your drawings into calculated material and labour costs.
Use your supplier pricing and labour rates to build a clearer cost breakdown.
Move from your estimate to a professional quote without rebuilding everything manually.
Price with your numbers, not guesswork.
Every price in a BuildersM8 quote comes from a rate you can see and change. Materials, labour and your markup are kept apart, so you know your cost and your profit before the quote goes out.
A price book, built in
You start with a standard UK price book: materials, labour rates and the build-ups that use them, trade by trade. Change any rate to what you pay and what you charge, and put it back to standard with one tap.
Your supplier's prices, in one go
Got a price list from your merchant? Import the spreadsheet. Lines are matched on the supplier's own code, every change is shown to you first, and nothing is written until you say so.
Labour costed line by line
Every line carries its own materials and its own labour, so a day of bricklaying is priced as a day of bricklaying, not buried in a lump sum. Change a quantity or a rate and the total follows.
We're builders. We built the tool we couldn't find.
We know what it's like to spend the day on site and the evening pricing jobs. BuildersM8 was developed in our own construction business to bring drawing, estimating and job management into one connected workflow.
- Built to fix the problems we had in our own firm
- Used on our own jobs, every working day
- Your onboarding call is with a builder
What are your evenings worth?
An estimate: the hours you spend quoting now, back in your evenings. Your jobs and your speed will vary.
Every job. One clear view.
Keep track of enquiries, quotes, active projects and job progress from one place. See what needs your attention without searching through spreadsheets, messages and paperwork.
More on the CRMQuestions builders ask us
How do I get started?+
Book an onboarding call. We find out how your firm works, show you BuildersM8 on one of your own jobs, then set up your account with you and get your rates in. You are not left to work it out on your own.
How much does it cost?+
It depends on the size of your firm and what you need, so we go through it with you on the call.
Whose prices does it use?+
Yours. BuildersM8 starts you off with a standard price book of materials, labour and build-ups, and you change any rate to match what you pay and what you charge. Your changes only ever affect your own account.
What kind of jobs is it for?+
It was built for extensions, loft conversions, garage conversions and renovations, because that is what we build. The quote builder works for any job you can price with your own rates.
Do I need to be good with computers?+
No. If you can use a phone you can use this. Most of it is tapping, dragging and typing a measurement. We walk you through it on your onboarding call.
Does it work on a tablet?+
Yes. The drawing tool was built to be used on a tablet on site, older iPads included, and the rest works on your phone, tablet or laptop. There is nothing to download: add it to your home screen and it opens like an app.
