Price the lot tonight without driving out.

Pavr's estimating is built for paving and concrete work. Draw the lot, drop the work onto it, price it from your numbers, and see the margin on every line before it goes out.

Measure

Draw it once. The quantities come off the drawing.

Outline the area to pave, the curb line and the stalls on the satellite view, or set the scale on the GC's PDF plan and draw on that. Or type in the square feet you walked with the wheel. Square feet, linear feet and counts are on the estimate before you've added a service.

Pricing for a sealcoating job: the lot drawn on the aerial photo with each shape priced as a service, the lines panel beside it grouped by trade, and the price, cost and margin at its foot.

Price

Your plant price, your crew rates, your equipment.

Drop the work onto what you drew. More than 130 services come built in: asphalt and asphalt repair, concrete, striping, sealcoating, drainage, maintenance, snow and ice, and site work, from mill and overlay by depth to crack fill and restripe. Each one prices from your numbers: a price and a cost per unit is enough, or build it up from your plant price and crew rates when you want the detail. The margin sits beside the price on every line while you work.

  • Tons, gallons, yards and crew hours come off the measurement, not a calculator in another window
  • Send when it clears the margin floor you set for the company; if it doesn't, it goes to whoever approves it
  • Paving, concrete, sealcoat and striping on one proposal, at one contract price

Price, in detail

See where the price comes from.

Switch a service to Built from costs and it prices from your own numbers: the gallons of tack coat a lot takes, the square feet your paving crew lays in a day, the plant price per ton. The price, the cost and the margin sit at the top for a typical 10,000 square foot job, and a bigger lot spreads the fixed charges thinner.

A mill and overlay service in the service library priced the detailed way: price, cost and margin at a typical job size, then what goes into it, including how many square feet a gallon of tack coat covers.

Send

The price you sent stays the price you sent.

When the plant raises its price, a proposal that's already out doesn't move. A draft picks up the new price when you hit refresh, and not before. The proposal goes out under your logo, holds its price for 30 days unless you set it otherwise, and the customer signs it on their phone.

The proposal

The customer's proposal page before signing: the contractor's letterhead, the headline and the lot drawn on the aerial photo.
Phone view of the signing step on the customer's page: the six-digit code entered, a signature drawn with a finger on the signature pad above the sign button, and the contractor's logo at the top.

Comparing tools? Pavr vs OneCrew covers this part of the job side by side, with a source and a date on every claim, and the rest of the comparisons are next to it.

What comes built in

More than 130 services are in the catalog on day one: asphalt (mill and overlay at 1", 1.5", 2", 2.5" and 3", full-depth, patching, and more), asphalt repair, concrete (flatwork, curb and gutter, sidewalks, pads), striping, sealcoating, drainage, maintenance, snow and ice, and site services like traffic control and equipment transport and setup. Each one knows what it's measured in, so a mill and overlay asks for square feet and a depth and comes back with tons; a curb line asks for linear feet; stalls ask for a count.

Add your own services next to them, or change what's there. The catalog is yours.

Where the prices come from

Every line prices from your numbers: the plant's price per ton, your crew rates, your equipment, the sub's quote. Type them once. A price and a cost per unit is enough, or build it up from your plant price and crew rates when you want the detail. Send when it clears the margin floor you set for the company; if it doesn't, it goes to whoever approves it.

The price and the margin sit beside the lines while you work, on the screen, not in a spreadsheet next to it.

What happens when the plant raises its price

Nothing, to the proposals you've already sent. A sent proposal keeps the prices it went out with; the customer signs exactly what they saw. A draft picks up the new price when you hit refresh, and not before. That's the difference between an estimate and a promise.

What the customer gets

One proposal under your logo, at one contract price, even when the lot has paving, curb, sealcoat and striping on it. It holds its price for 30 days unless you set it otherwise. Three days before it runs out, the customer gets a reminder. When they sign, the job is won.

Put one real job through it.

Draw a lot you priced last month, price it with your own numbers, and see what it would have made. Fourteen days, no credit card.
