Buildlog

Real-time margins for contractors and trades.

Log in

You only find out a job went wrong after it's already done.

Buildlog shows you how every project is doing while there's still time to fix it. No spreadsheets. No surprises.

Built by a contractor, for electricians, plumbers, carpenters, painters, and every trade that quotes jobs. Currently accepting 10 early users.

The spreadsheet says you're fine. Your bank account disagrees.

You're juggling 3 jobs. Hours aren't logged until Friday. Material costs are in a shoebox. Your quote said 40% margin — reality says 12%. By the time you find out, the job is done and the money is gone. Whether you're an electrician, painter, plumber, or general contractor — you know this feeling.

Know where you stand. Every day. Every job.

Log hours and costs in under 5 minutes a day. See your real margin update instantly. Spot problems before they eat your profit.

Hours

Track who worked where, automatically calculated at their rate.

Costs

Materials, equipment, subcontractors. All in one place.

Margin

Live profit view. No formulas. No guessing.

I built this because I needed it myself.

Dennis, founder of Buildlog
I run a small contracting company. I was tired of finishing jobs and only then finding out I'd lost money. So I built Buildlog — first for myself, now for you.
