Five tools. One login.

Everything a building firm needs between the first phone call and the final payment, built to be used on site with muddy hands.

01Plan & price

Draw it on the tablet. The quote builds itself underneath.

Draw the job from your own measurements or trace over a photo of the plans. Walls, openings, stairs, roofs and dormers, existing and proposed. As you draw, BuildersM8 measures everything and prices it from your rates.

  • 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

02Quoting

A proper quote, in build order, the same day.

Every quote is set out section by section in the order you build, with your markup, your VAT and your logo. You see your cost and your profit on every job before it goes out.

  • Priced from your own price book of materials, labour and build-ups
  • Markup across the quote or section by section, with cost and profit on screen
  • Every line shows its materials and its labour, and you can change any quantity or rate
  • A clean A4 document with your plans on it: print it, save it as a PDF or open it in Word

03CRM

Every lead, call and follow-up in one place.

New enquiries land on a board you can drag. Each job keeps its own timeline of calls, notes, visits and quotes, so whoever picks up the phone knows where it stands.

  • A jobs board with your own stages: add, rename and reorder them
  • Log an enquiry in seconds: the customer and the job are made together
  • Call backs, tasks and site visits on one calendar, with clash checks
  • A home screen that tells each person who to ring and where to be today

04Site audits

Photograph the snag, mark it up, give it a name.

Walk the job with your phone. Take the photo, circle the problem in red, set who is fixing it and by when. It becomes a task for them, and ticking the task off closes the snag.

  • Photo first, with red pen mark-up on top
  • Priority, a due date and a name on every issue
  • Each issue becomes a task, and finishing the task resolves it
  • A branded A4 report to hand to the client

05Team & projects

From the first call to the final payment.

A won job becomes a project with its stages, programme, payments and paperwork in one place. Invite the team, give every job an owner and see what is moving and what is stuck.

  • A programme for every job, with progress worked out from the tasks
  • Stage payments that raise their own invoices
  • Site diary, job photos, variations and a document register
  • Invite your team by email and give every task a name
