Once you've made your selection, add the customer's information, portfolio or jobsite photos, and mark up images when you want to clearly show the work being proposed. Review and edit everything before sending the finished proposal to your customer for signature. YOU STAY IN CONTROL. ET HELPS YOU GET THERE FASTER. • Create professional estimates and proposals • Compare three suggested pricing options • Edit every detail before sending • Collect customer signatures • Create and send invoices • Receive follow-up reminders • Keep estimates, invoices, receipts, portfolios, and customers organized SHOW CUSTOMERS YOUR WORK Build before, during, and after project portfolios.

BUILT BY A ROOFER. STILL ROOFING. I'm Enrico Torres. After more than 25 years roofing in Pennsylvania, I'm still on the roof today. I built Construction Trades™ because I was tired of climbing off a roof only to spend my evenings writing estimates, creating contracts, chasing paperwork, and remembering follow-ups. I didn't build software looking for a problem. I built the tool I needed to run my own contracting business, and I still use it on my own jobs today. No monthly contracts. No unnecessary complexity. Just practical tools built for the trades. From one contractor to another, I hope Construction Trades™ helps you spend less time on paperwork and more time doing what you do best.
