On site all day. Quoting all night.

Plan & price

Draw it on the tablet. The quote builds itself underneath.

  • Real wall build-ups, roofs, dormers, steels and openings, drawn to the millimetre
  • Existing, proposed and demolished work on the same plan
  • Trace over an image of the plans, scaled with two taps
  • Scale drawing sheets: plans, elevations, roof and foundations at 1:50 to 1:200
  • Made for a tablet on site, older iPads included

Why we built it

We are builders. We built the tool we could not buy.

BuildersM8 started inside a Yorkshire building firm that was tired of pricing extensions and lofts at the kitchen table. It prices that firm's jobs every working day. Nothing in it was designed in a boardroom.

Straight answers

Questions builders ask us

Do I need a card to start the trial?+

No. Sign up, use everything for 14 days and only add a card if you want to carry on.

Whose prices does it use?+

Yours. BuildersM8 starts you off with a standard price book of materials, labour and build-ups, and you change any rate to match what you pay and what you charge. Your changes only ever affect your own account.

What kind of jobs is it for?+

It was built for extensions, loft conversions, garage conversions and renovations, because that is what we build. The quote builder works for any job you can price with your own rates.

Do I need to be good with computers?+

No. If you can use a phone you can use this. Most of it is tapping, dragging and typing a measurement. We will also walk you through it on a call if you want.

Does it work on a tablet?+

Yes. The drawing tool was built to be used on a tablet on site, older iPads included, and the rest works on your phone, tablet or laptop. There is nothing to download: add it to your home screen and it opens like an app.

Can my team use it?+

Yes. Invite them by email. Starter covers up to 3 people and Pro is unlimited.
