Estimate fast. Protect the scope. Get paid. BidBildr is the mobile-first estimating, invoicing, and change-order app built for handymen, GCs, painters, drywallers, and small trade shops who still spend Sunday nights writing up bids. Three taps from a driveway to a sent estimate. Customers sign on their phone. The deposit hits your account before you swing a hammer. EVERYTHING YOU NEED, NOTHING YOU DON'T • Estimate builder with separate Labor, Materials, and Other sections — no spreadsheet gymnastics. • Smart line-item history: type a description, BidBildr suggests pricing from past jobs. Hit accept, the rest auto-fills. • Auto sales tax by state — set it once in onboarding, every estimate picks up the right rate. • Send by email or text — customers tap the link, see a polished branded page, and accept right there. • ESIGN/UETA-compliant electronic signatures with audit hashes on every accepted document. • Square deposit collection — customers pay the deposit before you start. Money in the bank, no chasing. • Convert accepted estimates to invoices in one tap. Deposits credit automatically. • Record payments by cash, check, Zelle, card — invoice status flips to paid the moment the balance hits zero. • Change orders for mid-job scope creep. Customer approves, items roll into the invoice automatically. • Per-job profit snapshot. Job activity timeline. Photo proof on every milestone. • Your logo on every estimate, invoice, and email. WHO IT'S FOR Handymen, general contractors, painters, drywallers, flooring installers, roofers, fence-and-deck builders, kitchen and bathroom remodelers, and property maintenance shops doing $0 to $2M a year. Designed for the solo operator. 30-DAY FREE TRIAL Start with 30 days of full access — no card required. When your trial ends, subscribe to BidBildr Pro right inside the app to keep going. WHY BIDBILDR We built this because the existing tools — Joist, Jobber, Houzz Pro, the spreadsheet template you've been using since 2014 — are either bloated desktop dashboards or trial-by-fire estimating apps that take a weekend to learn. BidBildr is the smallest possible product that gets you from a customer's driveway to a paid deposit before lunch.
