We build your website, intake, email and office systems on your own private server, then keep them running. You get the leads, the estimates and your evenings back.
One private system follows each job from the first message to the review request, so your team isn't retyping things between five apps.
A customer fills out your intake page with photos, plans and a budget. You get a scored lead alert in seconds.
Quantities, materials and supplier prices come together into a draft you check and send.
The job lands on the calendar and on your crew's phones, with reminders on both ends.
Deposits, progress billing and final invoices go out on time and get followed up.
Review requests, warranty dates and the next job for a returning customer.
Every client gets a site designed around their trade. These are real builds, running live. Open them, scroll them, try the intake forms. Nothing you submit is sent.
Meridian Timber & Structure, Vancouver Island
Meridian sells timber framing and 3D rendering, so the homepage does both: a real-time 3D frame goes from blueprint to lockup as the visitor scrolls.
Ascend Electric, Tri-Valley, California
An electrical contractor who wires production homes and commercial builds. Scrolling energizes the building from the transformer to the roof, window by window.
Customers tell you what they need, where, when and how much, with photos and plans attached. You get it scored and on your phone before they've closed the tab.
