Stop Chasing Trades for Updates

Give your trades access to their tasks. They update progress from their phones on site. You get real-time notifications. No more Monday morning calls asking "what happened last week?"

  • Trades see only their tasks, not your whole project
  • Report issues and delays immediately before they cascade
  • Access plans, specs, and documents right from their tasks
  • Upload progress photos to document completed work

The Trade Communication Nightmare

Coordinating Trades Shouldn't Take All Day

The Monday Morning Marathon

Every Monday you call 5-8 trades asking what they did last week and what they're doing this week. 2 hours gone before 10am.

The Progress Black Hole

You have no idea if the plumber finished rough-in or just hasn't called back. Is the tiler even on site today?

The Missing Information

Trade calls asking "What's the measurement for that wall?" or "Which fixtures did we order?" You're on another site and have to dig through emails to find the spec.

The Coordination Fail

Painter shows up but plasterer isn't done. Nobody told you plasterer was delayed. Now everyone's schedule is messed up.

Trades Update. You Stay Informed.

Real-Time Updates Without Making a Single Call

Trade-Specific Access

They See Their Work. Not Yours.

Each trade gets access to only their assigned tasks. Plumber sees plumbing, electrician sees electrical. Or show them the full project if they need context. You control what each service provider can see.

Trade Benefit: Know exactly what they're supposed to do
Builder Benefit: Protect your pricing and project details

Task Documents & Specifications

Plans, Specs, and Details at Your Fingertips.

Trades access plans, specifications, and supplier documents attached to their tasks. Everything they need is linked right to the task they're viewing. No more "I didn't have the measurements" or calling for details.

Trade Benefit: All the info needed without calling the builder
Builder Benefit: Fewer calls asking for details, specs, or measurements

Progress Photo Documentation

Document Your Work As You Go.

Snap photos of completed work or issues encountered right from your phone. Photos automatically attach to the specific task. Before/after documentation builds trust and creates records without extra paperwork.

Trade Benefit: Protect yourself with photo proof of work quality
Builder Benefit: Visual confirmation of work without being on site constantly

How Builders Use Trade Portals

The Delayed Rough-In

Portal Solution:

Plumber flags delay with photo and explanation. Builder sees immediately, adjusts schedule, notifies affected trades

Outcome:

Smooth adjustment instead of surprise delay cascade

The Photo Documentation

Situation:

Plumber completes rough-in. Builder is managing 3 other sites and can't inspect today

Portal Solution:

Plumber uploads 6 photos of completed work through portal. Marks task complete.

Outcome:

Work verified remotely with complete photo documentation for handover

The Progress Tracking

Situation:

Builder managing 8 active jobs, wants to know status across all

Portal Solution:

Opens dashboard, sees 6 trades have updated in last 24 hours, 2 need follow-up

Outcome:

10-minute review instead of 2 hours of phone calls
