Three moves. No Friday spreadsheet.

BuilderPad turns the project ledger into a homeowner-ready draw, then keeps every system current when the payment lands.

01 · Assemble

Approved costs flow in.

Signed COs, approved bills, field-verified progress, allowance variances, retainage releases. All pulled into one itemized draw — in your shop's branding.

02 · Review

PDF preview. One scroll.

Branded with your logo, plain-English line item labels, allowance over/under shown by line. Edit anything before sending. Most builders send as-is.

— Why it works on construction billing

Built for
construction billing.
Not generic invoicing software.

QuickBooks sends flat invoices. Subcontractor billing apps can't handle homeowner-facing draws. BuilderPad bills the way construction actually works — by phase, by CO, with allowance variance shown by line.

Draws against schedule

Bill by phase as work happens — foundation, rough-in, finishes — not a flat lump-sum invoice you have to re-explain on a call.

QuickBooks: flat invoicesBuilderPad: phase-by-phase draws

Allowance reconciliation

Every allowance line shown with its variance — $840 over on lighting, $200 under on plumbing fixtures. Homeowner sees it. CPA sees it. No surprises.

QuickBooks: no allowance conceptBuilderPad: every line tracked

Change-order rollups

Signed COs auto-attach to the next draw. No re-keying. No 'wait, what was that change order again?' from the homeowner.

Everything around the draw
that makes it collect.

Allowance ledger

Every allowance line, shown with its variance — to the dollar.

Plumbing-$200
Lighting+$840
Tile+$420
Draw schedule

Foundation 100%, rough-in 50%, finishes 0%. Each phase fires a draw when the field marks it complete.

QuickBooks 2-way sync

Customers, invoices, payments. Round-trip in 30 seconds. Assembled in BuilderPad, paid through QB or BuilderPad — your pick.

Field progress → draw

Foreman marks rough-in 50% complete on his phone. That percentage shows up on the next draw line. No double-entry, no spreadsheet handoff.

Smart reminders

Smart reminders chase for you, without surprise.

Smart reminders by default. Builder gets a heads-up before each one goes out — never blindsides the homeowner.

Audit trail

Every draw, every edit, every reminder — logged with timestamp + IP. CPA-ready export at year-end.

— Field notes

The reason your homeowner stopped calling at 9pm.

T

he reason homeowners call their builder at 9pm isn't usually scope — it's the invoice. They look at a $77K line that says 'rough-in phase' and they don't see what they paid for. They see a number, and they call to ask why.

BuilderPad draws don't ask the homeowner to take it on faith. Every line shows the CO it came from, the allowance it reconciled, the phase percentage the field actually marked. They read it once. They tap pay. They don't call.

I sent draws every Friday for 11 years. Wife stopped speaking to me on Friday nights. Now BuilderPad sends them Tuesday morning, the homeowner pays Wednesday, and Friday's just dinner.
