Estimates, permits, material takeoffs, invoices — every one rebuilt from scratch, most of it after the truck's parked. The wiring's the easy part. The paperwork is the tax on your week.

The jobs are dialed in. The admin around them is where the hours go.
No enterprise estimating platform you'll never fully adopt — just the fixes a shop your size will actually run.
We start with one conversation. You walk me through a normal job — from estimate to permit to material order to invoice — and where you keep rebuilding the same thing. I listen for the repetitive and the manual.
A few days later you get a short, plain-English report: what’s costing you time, what fixes each thing, what it runs a month, and where to start. Most of it connects tools you already pay for — some of it I can build once and hand you with no lock-in. The report is yours either way.
It usually pencils out fast: rebuilding an estimate, copying material lists into a supplier order, and turning the same job into a permit and invoice can take 20–30 minutes. At 12–18 jobs or estimates a week, that is most of a day. We work it out from your real numbers on the call — the tools to stop it usually run around $60 a month, before anything custom gets built.
An illustrative example — not a specific client.
Take a five-person electrical contractor. Every estimate starts from a blank page, then the same materials get typed into the supplier order, permit notes, and invoice.
→ Estimate templates that carry job details into orders, permits, and invoices. ~6 hrs/week back, with fewer missed materials.
