In the dynamic world of residential construction, change orders are a common occurrence. Whether it's adding built-ins, swapping finishes, or installing an extra skylight, each modification impacts materials, labor, schedule, and cash flow. Relying on manual notes or spreadsheets can lead to costly errors. CountBricks change order software provides a voice-driven system that translates every request into a clear scope, precise cost, and updated schedule—before any additional work begins.
On site, discuss the new scope with the homeowner. CountBricks transcribes, tags tasks, and matches the latest material pricing from live supplier feeds.
The homeowner receives a branded PDF from CountBricks.com via email or text. Digital sign-off integrates the change directly into your project budget and schedule—eliminating double entry and missed signatures.
Homeowners often upgrade tile or flooring late in the game. CountBricks cross-references current supplier SKUs to ensure accurate pricing.
Need to widen a window or add a covered patio? CountBricks bundles framing, sheathing, and permit allowances into a single task group to ensure nothing is overlooked.
Moving a vent hood after rough-in? The software calculates associated drywall patch, paint, and inspector re-visit costs automatically.
