Where estimating software fits in a general contracting job.
Walk the site and build the bid
Shoot existing conditions, take your own measurements, and build the estimate from saved assemblies for demo, framing, drywall, and finish. Labor and material rates start from your zip code and you adjust them to your subs' real numbers before anything goes out.
Get the contract signed with the deposit
Send the scope to the owner's phone with the contract attached. They review it, e-sign, and pay the deposit in one step, and the signed estimate becomes the job with every line item intact, so nobody retypes the bid into a production system.
Price and approve change orders in the field
When the owner asks for another outlet or the wall opens up rotted framing, price the change and send it through the homeowner portal. They approve and sign from their phone, and the change order rolls onto the next invoice automatically.
What general contracting crews should look for in estimating software
- Role-based access for supers and foremen. Your superintendent needs the schedule and plans, not the margin on every bid. Look for permissions by role rather than one shared login.
- Estimates built from assemblies. Saved assemblies for walls, openings, and finishes keep bids consistent across estimators. Starting every bid from a blank spreadsheet is where margin mistakes creep in.
Estimating software is just the start.
Every general contracting account runs the full job, from the first lead to the final payment, in one login, so you are not paying for or syncing separate tools.

What is the best general contracting estimating software?
It depends on how you sell and how many tools you want to run. Revcore Pro covers general contracting estimating software and runs the entire job in one login: CRM, Good/Better/Best estimating, an in-home sales presentation, scheduling, invoicing, and on-the-spot payments, all built for how general contracting crews actually work.
Does Revcore Pro work for general contracting businesses?
Yes. Juggling subs, change orders, and draws across a dozen jobs? Revcore keeps every project, document, and dollar in one place, so nothing slips between the office and the field.
How much does general contracting estimating software cost?
Revcore Pro is one flat price per plan, $249 to $1,199/mo, with 3 to 15 full seats, unlimited free field crew seats, and no setup fees or contracts. That covers the full platform, not just estimating software, so you replace several tools with one bill.
What is the best software for general contractors?
It depends on the size and type of work. Residential GCs who sell to homeowners need bids, contracts, change orders, plans, scheduling, and draws in one place, and Revcore Pro covers that on one job file. Buildertrend is a common choice for builders who want Gantt schedules and job costing, and Contractor Foreman is a lower cost construction option with a broad feature list.
How do I track change orders so they actually get billed?
Price the change on the job, send it through the homeowner portal, and have the owner sign from their phone before the work starts. In Revcore, approved change orders roll onto the next invoice automatically, so extra scope shows up on the draw instead of getting forgotten at closeout.
