From the field

General Contractors questions

Real answers.

Do I have to pay for insurance features I won't use?
No. Insurance Pack ($49/mo) and Storm Pack ($29/mo) are add-ons. Skip them and never see the menu items.
Is this just another Buildertrend?
Buildertrend custom-quotes by volume — most contractors land at $800-$1,000/mo and $15M+ shops hit $1,400+. Your price climbs when you grow. TradeForge starts at $49/mo and stays there — your rate only changes if YOU change packages.
Can I track change orders?
Yes. Mark any estimate as a Change Order, tie it to the parent job, send it for e-signature like a mini-contract. Auto-invoices on sign. Available from the contact profile, the job page, or the estimate builder directly.
What about subcontractor management?
Subs go in as Team members with role-based access. They see only their assigned jobs.
