GENERAL CONTRACTOR ESTIMATING APP

One estimating workflow for the jobs that touch every trade.

FieldSquire helps general contractors and remodelers turn a mixed walkthrough into organized demolition, labor, material, subcontractor, allowance, and closeout lines.

Available on Android and iOS. Review every AI-generated line before sending.

Looking for a general contractor estimating app for a small contracting business?

FieldSquire is designed for quick field estimates—not enterprise software that takes weeks to configure. Use your own business profile, pricing, margins, terms, and document colors. AI prepares a draft; you stay in control of the bid.

  4. Edit or delete each line, verify quantities and direct costs, and confirm exclusions and allowances.
  5. Let FieldSquire apply private overage and profit settings to calculate the selling price.
  6. Add terms, a deposit, and optional customer approval, then send the PDF by SMS or email.

SAVE THE PART OF THE DAY YOU CANNOT REPLACE

Fast quotes can give a busy contractor a workweek back.

FieldSquire is built to turn a walkthrough into an editable quote in a minute or two. If a contractor saves about 30 minutes across 20 quotes each week, that is roughly 40 hours returned over a month. Actual savings depend on quote volume and the old workflow—but less truck-seat paperwork means more time for paying work, customers, and home.

Built for solo contractors and five-person crews

Starter is for lower quote volume, Pro adds unlimited estimates and AI assistance, and Crew gives up to five members a shared business profile, leads, estimates, job photos, and learned prices. The owner keeps the company identity consistent while a contractor, salesperson, or foreman can be named on the quote.

General contractor estimating software for remodels and mixed scopes

Use FieldSquire as mobile general contractor estimating software for kitchen and bathroom remodels, repairs, punch lists, rental turns, insurance scopes, subcontractor allowances, and small renovation bids. Keep photos, voice notes, editable trade lines, deposits, customer approval, and the finished estimate PDF in one simple workflow.

Questions about FieldSquire for general contractor work

Can FieldSquire handle multiple trades in one estimate?

Yes. Organize each phase or trade as editable line items and use clear detail, allowances, and exclusions.

Can I add subcontractor quotes?

Yes. Enter confirmed subcontractor costs as direct-cost lines, then let your private pricing settings calculate the selling price.

Can I create a remodel deposit schedule?

FieldSquire supports an initial fixed or percentage deposit. For milestone schedules or jurisdiction-specific terms, add reviewed contract language.

Is FieldSquire construction management software?

It focuses on leads, field estimates, approvals, and documents—not full scheduling, accounting, plan takeoff, or project management.
