BuildFlow is construction project management software that small contractors can actually afford. Track projects, create estimates, schedule crews, and log daily work — all from your phone.
Small contractors deserve better than enterprise tools at enterprise prices.
Enterprise tools charge enterprise prices. You need project management, not a second mortgage.
Scribbled notes, coffee-stained timesheets, WhatsApp messages you can't find. Your data deserves a real home.
Every job starts in Excel. Then you email it. Then changes get lost. Then you eat the cost.
Buildertrend has 50+ features designed for $50M GCs. You need 5 that actually work on a phone.
Built for residential contractors, remodelers, and subcontractors.
See every job's status at a glance. Track budgets, timelines, and progress from your phone or desktop. No training required.
Build itemized estimates with labor, materials, equipment, and subs. Convert to invoices in one click. Track what's paid.
Assign tasks to crew members with due dates and priorities. Everyone sees their schedule. No more morning phone calls.
Log weather, crew count, work performed, and materials used. Build a paper trail that protects you when disputes arise.
Track punchlist items with photos and assignees. Mark complete in the field. Close out jobs faster and get paid sooner.
Built for the job site, not the corner office. Full functionality on your phone — log hours, update tasks, snap photos from the field.
No annual contracts. No per-project fees. No volume-based gotchas.
