Contractor Estimating App — Build and Send Estimates From the Field

Stop driving home to write up estimates. Build a professional, itemized quote on your phone, send it from the job site, and track it until it's approved.

No signup required for demo. Built for contractors.

Slow estimates mean lost jobs.

  • Taking days to send an estimate after the site visit — the customer already called someone else
  • Estimates scrawled on paper that get disputed when it's time to invoice
  • No tracking of which estimates are out, which were approved, and which were declined
  • Starting from scratch every time instead of using saved service rates
  • No follow-up system — open estimates go cold with no reminder

TradeBase puts it all in one place.

An estimating app built for how contractors actually work.

TradeBase is designed for contractors who estimate in the field. Save your standard services and rates once — then building an estimate is just selecting what applies to the job. Add any custom items, set a valid-until date, and send from your phone. Customers can review and approve online. You get notified when they do. When the job is done, one tap converts the estimate to an invoice.

Common Mistakes Contractors Make

  • Sending estimates over 48 hours after the visit — close rates drop fast
  • Lump-sum estimates with no line items — customers push back on vague totals
  • No expiration date — customers come back months later expecting the same price
  • Not following up at all — a single follow-up message closes most open estimates
