Construction software for general builders

Let’s cut to the chase. You want to know if BuildingWorks is going to be any good for you. Maybe you are a small(ish) to medium sized building firm? You probably do a mix of extensions, renovations, refurbishment and conversion work – and possibly a few small new build sites?

If this is you, BuildingWorks is going to be spot on.

How will it help a residential building firm?

You might have looked at other more expensive software, or maybe more high end solutions (Revit, AutoCAD or Microsoft Project anyone?!) Did you buy them? (and found it disappointing? )…and heavy training essential? However, don’t worry, it’s common, we hear that a lot.

There are various solutions out there. However, none offer the Joined up Thinking of BuildingWorks and its ease of use.

BuildingWorks will help you cost up your building projects (take-off from a PDF or generate the plan yourself), help you review the specification to get the cost/energy performance balance right, get your company and projects covered health & safety wise (before you start work!), keep the project on track – oh and get paid!
