Building quote software · UK

Builder quote software for scopes that cannot live in one paragraph.

Building work crosses demolition, structure, trades, finishes, access, waste and client decisions. Qwotly Ai helps builders turn drawings, site evidence and conversations into a sequenced editable quote, so the customer can see what is included and what still requires a decision.

Why quotes stall

The real problem is not the PDF. It is the gap between seeing the job and sending a complete price.

A broad phrase such as complete extension hides dozens of decisions about structure, services, finishes, temporary works and client supply.

Drawing revisions, engineer notes and site discoveries are scattered across email, WhatsApp and paper, while the quote reflects only part of the current information.

The price includes assumptions about ground conditions, access, working hours and existing services that the customer has never seen.

Prime-cost items, provisional sums, variations and exclusions are mixed into one total, making later changes difficult to explain.

Field-to-quote workflow

Capture once. Price deliberately. Send while the job is still warm.

STEP 01

Collect the basis

Record the drawing revision, specification, engineer information, site constraints, client brief and documents used to prepare the price.

STEP 02

Break down phases

Organise preliminaries, protection, demolition, groundworks, structure, envelope, services, finishes, external works and completion.

STEP 03

Expose allowances

Identify provisional sums, client selections, prime-cost allowances, unknown conditions and packages requiring specialist confirmation.

STEP 04

Approve the deal

Set payment stages, programme assumptions, VAT, validity, exclusions, variation procedure and final commercial wording.

A quote that can be trusted

What the document should make clear

The drawings, revisions, specification and site information on which the quote is based.
A phase-by-phase scope covering preliminaries, protection, demolition, structure, services, finishes and handover where relevant.
Client-supplied items, nominated specialists, approvals, statutory fees, surveys and design responsibilities.
Provisional sums, prime-cost allowances and unknown conditions such as drainage, foundations, asbestos, hidden structure or existing services.
Programme assumptions, payment stages, variation control, access, welfare, waste, working hours, VAT and exclusions.

Evidence before estimate

What to capture on site

Current drawings, structural details, schedules, planning conditions and written specification.
Site photos covering access, boundaries, neighbouring property, levels, drainage, services, existing finishes and areas to protect.
Dimensions and notes where the built condition differs from drawings or where no reliable drawing exists.
Client decisions on kitchens, sanitaryware, flooring, doors, ironmongery, lighting and other selectable items.
Quotes or assumptions from subcontractors and suppliers that materially affect the overall price.

Decision point

A builder wins trust by showing the customer how the total was formed.

Qwotly gives you a faster way to turn complex evidence into a readable commercial structure. It does not replace drawings, specifications, contracts or professional design advice; it helps keep them connected to the quote the customer receives.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers before you switch.

Can Qwotly replace a construction contract?

No. A quote records your proposed scope and commercial terms. Larger or higher-risk projects may still require an appropriate written building contract and professional advice.

Can I include provisional sums?

Yes. Provisional or allowance-based items can be described clearly so they are not mistaken for fixed, fully designed work.

Can I convert an accepted quote to an invoice?

Yes. Qwotly supports conversion from an accepted quote into the invoice workflow while preserving the commercial record.

Is Qwotly full construction project-management software?

Qwotly is focused on capture, quoting, invoicing and follow-up. It is not positioned as a replacement for full scheduling, contract administration or enterprise project-management systems.
