Construction Quoting Software

Quoting software for contractors who work from measurements.

Measure jobs with digital takeoff and AI Scan Assist, build priced quotes with Smart Components™, track customer approval, order materials, manage work, invoice and get paid - all in one connected workflow.

Quick answer

Quoting software for contractors turns measurements, labour and material prices into a professional, priced quote — without spreadsheets or re-typed numbers. It is built for contractors, builders, roofers, plasterers and subcontractors who quote from measurements or plans. QuoteCore+ starts free (Lite plan), with paid plans from $19/month and a 14-day free trial — so you can send your first professional quote before paying anything.

No card required. 14 days free.

Stop running one job through five different tools.

Most construction businesses do not only lose time creating the quote. They lose time because the job gets rebuilt at every stage.

Measurements go into notes. Pricing sits in a spreadsheet. The quote gets formatted somewhere else. Materials are ordered from another document. Job details live in emails. Invoices are created after everything has already been copied three times.

That is where mistakes creep in. That is where follow-up gets missed. That is where jobs feel harder to manage than they should.

QuoteCore+ keeps the job connected from quote to payment.

Quoting software built for your trade.

Whatever trade you work in, the job is the same: measure it, price it, quote it, and get paid. Here is how QuoteCore+ fits the way each trade works.

Roofing contractors

Roofing quoting is measurement-heavy: roof areas, ridges, hips, valleys, barges, waste allowances and material pricing per square. QuoteCore+ includes digital roof takeoff with AI Scan Assist to identify roof areas and components from an uploaded plan, and Smart Components™ that store your per-square pricing, labour and waste rules so re-roof and repair quotes build in minutes. See the dedicated roofing quoting software and roofing estimating software pages.

Carpentry

Carpentry quotes mix materials (timber, fixings, sheet goods), labour hours and often repeated assemblies — decks, pergolas, framing packages. Save each assembly once as a Smart Component™ with its materials list, labour and pricing rule, then drop it into the next quote and adjust quantities. Measure on site or from plans, then let the quote update from the measurements.

Plastering

Plastering quotes come from wall and ceiling areas, openings deducted, coats and finishes priced per area, and materials like plasterboard, compound and tape ordered by the job. Build Smart Components™ per finish type, quote from measured areas, and turn the accepted quote into a material order without re-keying anything.

Subcontractors

Subcontractors quote from head-contractor plans, then need to move fast: price it, submit it, and if accepted, order materials and invoice without admin overhead. QuoteCore+ keeps takeoff, quote, material orders and invoicing connected to the same job data — especially valuable when you repeat similar work across multiple jobs.

General contractors

General builders juggle multiple trades, materials and suppliers on every quote. QuoteCore+ lets you build quotes from a library of trade-specific Smart Components™, keep every customer and job in one place, track which quotes are accepted, and move the winners straight through to material orders and invoices — instead of rebuilding the job in spreadsheets at every stage.

How contractors evaluate quoting software.

Before choosing job quoting software, most contractors weigh the same four things. Here is how QuoteCore+ handles each.

Quotes per week: will it keep up with your volume?

Whether you send 2 quotes a week or 20, the bottleneck is the same: rebuilding the same measurements, materials and labour pricing every time. Smart Components™ store your pricing rules once, then drop them into every new quote — so quoting volume scales without your admin hours scaling with it.

Material lists: can the quote become an order?

A quote that can't be ordered from is only half a job. In QuoteCore+, the accepted quote drives materials ordering directly — component quantities, drawings and custom lengths stay connected, with no copy-paste into a separate spreadsheet.

Follow-ups: do you know which quotes are still open?

Most lost jobs are lost to silence, not to competitors. QuoteCore+ tracks whether each quote has been viewed, accepted or declined, so follow-up is a list you work — not a feeling. For scripts and timing, see our guide on how to follow up on a quote.

Client-facing PDF: will customers trust the document?

Homeowners, developers and project managers judge professionalism quickly. Quotes export as clean, branded PDF documents generated from live job data — not a spreadsheet printout — which helps the quote get taken seriously before your price is even compared.

QuoteCore+ vs spreadsheets vs generic invoicing tools.

Spreadsheets calculate. Invoicing apps bill. Neither keeps the whole job connected. Here is the honest comparison.

Measure. Quote. Order. Manage. Invoice. Get paid.

QuoteCore+ helps businesses turn measurements, pricing, approvals, materials, job details, invoices and payment into one connected workflow.

01

Choose how you want to quote

Start from a blank quote, use saved Smart Components™, or upload a plan and measure digitally. AI Scan Assist identifies roof areas and components from an uploaded plan automatically. QuoteCore+ gives you different ways to build the job depending on how you work.

02

Build the quote

Use your saved materials, labour, measurements, waste allowances, pricing rules and templates to create a professional quote without rebuilding everything manually.

03

Send and track

Send the quote to the customer and track what happens next. Know when a quote is accepted or declined so follow-up does not depend on memory.

04

Order materials

Use the accepted quote to support materials ordering. Keep component details, quantities, drawings and custom lengths connected to the job.

05

Invoice

Move from accepted quote to invoice without starting again. The job information is already there, so the admin does not need to be rebuilt in another tool.

06

Keep everything tracked

Quotes, approvals, materials, invoices, customer details and job information stay connected instead of being spread across spreadsheets, emails, folders and notes.

See the quote workflow in practice.

This walkthrough shows how QuoteCore+ helps turn job details and measurements into a professional quote, while keeping the job information ready for the next steps.

Smart Components™

QuoteCore+ remembers how you work.

Most construction businesses already know how they price jobs. The problem is that knowledge is scattered across spreadsheets, old quotes, memory, photos, folders and notes.

Smart Components™ give that knowledge a proper home. Save the parts of a job you use again and again, then reuse them across future quotes, materials and job workflows.

Founder, QuoteCore+

Shaped by real construction workflow problems.

QuoteCore+ is led by Shaun's real experience across construction, roofing, project management and operations.

Shaun lived the problem: jobs spread across measurements, spreadsheets, quote documents, emails, material lists, follow-up notes and invoices.

The QuoteCore+ team built around that workflow to create a platform that is practical, flexible and designed to adapt to how trade businesses actually work.

The product started from roofing experience, but the problem is much wider than roofing. Construction and other measured trades can run into the same disconnected admin.

“Software should adapt to your business. Not the other way around.”

Common questions

What trades can use QuoteCore+?

QuoteCore+ can be used by construction and trade businesses that quote from measurements, plans, site details, materials and labour. That includes roofing, cladding, flooring, fencing, landscaping, decking, general building, renovation trades and exterior works.

Is QuoteCore+ only for roofing?

No. QuoteCore+ started from real roofing and construction workflow problems, but it is built for trade and construction businesses that need to quote, order, manage, invoice and get paid from one connected workflow.

Does QuoteCore+ only create quotes?

No. QuoteCore+ helps with the wider workflow around the quote, including measurement, pricing, customer approval, materials ordering, job management, invoicing and payment.

Can QuoteCore+ handle materials ordering?

Yes. Accepted quotes can be used to support materials ordering, so you do not have to copy the same job details from one place to another after the customer says yes.

Does QuoteCore+ include invoicing?

Yes. QuoteCore+ is designed to keep the job connected through to invoicing and payment, instead of stopping once the quote is accepted.

Can I try it before paying?

Yes. QuoteCore+ offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.

How much does construction quoting software cost?

QuoteCore+ plans range from free to $59/month. The free plan includes core quoting features. Paid plans add digital takeoff, AI Scan Assist, material ordering, invoicing, and Smart Components. See our pricing page for current plan details.

Can QuoteCore+ be used for different trades?

Yes. QuoteCore+ is used by roofing, cladding, flooring, fencing, landscaping, decking, and general building contractors. Any trade that quotes from measurements, plans, materials, and labour can use it. Smart Components let you save trade-specific pricing rules and reuse them across quotes.

How is QuoteCore+ different from spreadsheets?

Spreadsheets calculate numbers but disconnect the job — measurements, pricing, quotes, material orders, and invoices live in separate files. QuoteCore+ keeps the same job data connected from first measurement to final invoice, with Smart Components that remember your pricing rules so you don't rebuild formulas every time. See our roofing quoting software vs spreadsheets comparison for a detailed breakdown.

Does QuoteCore+ work for subcontractors?

Yes. Subcontractors who quote from plans or site measurements can use QuoteCore+ to build priced quotes, track customer approval, order materials, and invoice — all from the same job data. Smart Components are especially useful for subcontractors who repeat similar work across multiple jobs.

GK

Greg Kepp

Sky High Roofing

“We haven’t had to print out a roof plan since we started using QuoteCore+. I was sceptical at first, but once you get used to measuring everything on screen it’s hard to imagine going back, not to mention its at least 4x faster than our old process. We’re still only using a fraction of what the app offers but very happy so far”

What QuoteCore+ does not do

No project management or scheduling

QuoteCore+ handles quoting, material ordering, and invoicing. It does not manage construction schedules, Gantt charts, or resource allocation.

No accounting or tax returns

Invoices are created and tracked, but QuoteCore+ does not handle VAT/GST returns, profit and loss, or balance sheets.

No payment processing

Invoices include payment instructions, but QuoteCore+ does not process card or bank payments directly.

When QuoteCore+ may not be the right fit

You only need basic quote templates

If you create a few quotes a month from a simple template and that works, QuoteCore+ may be more than you need. It adds the most value when you quote frequently across multiple trades and want a connected workflow.

You need full project management

QuoteCore+ handles quoting through invoicing, not construction project management. If you need scheduling, Gantt charts, or resource allocation, use dedicated PM software.
