Services / Trades and contractors
For trades businesses that have outgrown the van and the WhatsApp group
You're good at the work. The trouble is everything else: on the tools by day, quoting at night, chasing invoices at the weekend. We get the office side running properly, so you can get off the tools and into growing the business.
Busy, growing, and still running on you
None of this means you're doing it wrong. It means the business has outgrown the way it runs.
Quoting at night
On the tools all day, then quoting and invoicing in the evening.
Prices in your head
And you're not sure which jobs actually make money.
A few customers, most of the work
If one contractor or agent goes quiet, there's nothing behind it.
Jobs all over the place
WhatsApp, texts, paper and photos on your phone.
Nobody runs a job like you
So you can't step back from the tools.
Built for how trades businesses actually work
We've done this with electrical contractors, property maintenance firms and equipment hire businesses. The aim is always the same: take the admin off you.
Quoting that's fast
Including AI quoting from job details sent from site, approved by you before it goes.
Quotes that chase themselves

Pricing from real jobs
A pricing database built from your own work.
A sales engine

Read the case studyThings owners usually ask
Do you understand trades businesses?
Yes. Most of our clients are trades and service businesses: electrical contracting, property maintenance, equipment hire and more. We built a property management business ourselves, working with trades every day.
Will this mean more admin for me?
The opposite. The aim is to take admin off you, so systems and your team handle it.
Can you help me get off the tools?
That's usually the goal. We build the systems and roles that let someone else run jobs, and free your time for sales and growth.
Where do you work?
Anywhere in England, Scotland and Wales, in person and online.
