In the fast-paced world of residential construction, change orders are inevitable. Design modifications, material substitutions, and client upgrades can occur frequently. Without a structured process, these changes can erode profits, delay schedules, and strain client relationships. CountBricks change order software is designed to maintain your margins and keep homeowners satisfied by transforming surprises into predictable, billable events.
Many residential contractors still depend on handwritten forms, spreadsheets, and email trails to manage change orders. This often results in disputed invoices, missed labor hours, and materials that never reach the site. CountBricks eliminates this chaos with a voice-driven platform that captures changes in real-time and generates an updated estimate instantly.
1. Instant Voice Capture
While speaking with your client or site supervisor, CountBricks listens, translates, and itemizes new tasks, labor, and materials against current market pricing.
2. Real-Time Costing
Our AI engine pulls live supplier feeds, ensuring markups and allowances are accurate the moment you hit “Save to Estimate.” No more Monday-morning price shocks.
3. One-Click Approval
CountBricks emails a branded PDF to the homeowner within seconds. They can approve from any device, and your schedule updates automatically.
4. Integrated Invoicing
Once approved, the change order converts to a payable line item in your CountBricks invoice. Your accounting stays clean, and cash moves faster.
CountBricks maintains a full audit trail: who requested the change, when it was priced, and who approved it. Export clean reports directly to your accounting stack or share with your bookkeeper via CountBricks.com.
Does CountBricks work on the jobsite?
Yes—our mobile app records voice input even when cell service is unreliable. Updates sync the moment you reconnect.
Can I customize markups per trade?
Absolutely. Set default percentages for framing, MEP, and finishes, or override on a per-item basis.
What if the client rejects the change?
The pending item remains in your log. You can revise pricing or archive it with a single tap—perfect documentation for future reference.

When Oak Ridge Homes began framing a 3,200 sq ft custom build, the homeowner decided mid-stream to switch from carpet to engineered hardwood on both levels. In the past, this would have meant several back-and-forth emails, a trip to the supplier, and at least a day of spreadsheet updates.
Using CountBricks change order software, the site supervisor opened the mobile app, spoke the change, and let the AI suggest SKU-matched flooring with current distributor pricing. Within three minutes, the client received a PDF outlining material cost, added installation labor, and the revised project timeline. They signed from their phone before lunch, allowing the crew to stay on schedule and the superintendent to lock in the flooring order the same afternoon.
