Revolutionize Your Contracting Business with Free Contractor Estimates and Material Tracking

Picture this: You've just run into that builder you worked for while you were employed 12 months ago. You start chatting and tell him that you finally started your own gig. He tells you he liked your work. His newest project is looking for bids and encourages you to submit one — "absolutely," you respond.

After receiving the details, you begin the estimating process. Time to duplicate that spreadsheet you used for the last job (or worse, create a blank one!). You clear fields, drag rows that have materials you will probably use again, and begin adding new materials to your estimate. Maybe you memorized some material costs, or maybe you look them up on that one distributor website with the best search; either way, it takes a lot of time. Hours later, you're done. You've calculated your material cost, your labor cost, your profit margin, and you're happy with the overall outcome. Now you need to create a PDF or document to send to the builder. You duplicate an old quote document, copy over exceptions, write out a rough scope of work, drop in the amounts you just calculated, and download it. Finally. You draft an email and are about to hit send when you realize your bid didn't account for equipment rentals. Now you have to update the sheet, then the document, burning even more time. There has to be a better way, right?

This is why we created VoltPro. It is a fast and easy way to create professional estimates based on your actual historical material costs. Best of all, it's free to get started. It has already been a game-changer for many modern contractors. No more juggling multiple spreadsheets and documents. No more wasting precious hours that could be spent growing your business.

The Challenges of Traditional Estimating

When you're memorizing material costs, you risk underbidding and losing profit. If you are searching for material prices online for every estimate, you're spending a lot of time. You might spend hours updating your spreadsheet, but keeping it organized is a pain. And creating estimates? That's another story. You open up documents, trying to format everything just right, making sure every cost is accounted for. It’s a tedious process that takes you away from what you could be doing—running your business.
