From the design meeting to the startup.
Price the pool from your own past builds, sell it with a link, and run every stage from dig day to the owner walkthrough. Your customer follows along in Marco.
Price it from the builds you've already done.
Estimates with a price check
Waterline looks at your past jobs like this one: what you charged, whether you got it, and what it cost by the time it was done. Then it suggests a price that keeps your profit target.
- Shell by the square foot, waterline tile and coping by the linear foot, decking by the square foot
- Warnings for a price below cost, a thin margin, or a line you usually include left off, like the dumpster
- Extra drive time added when the job is farther out than usual
- You decide the price, every time
Change orders before you build them
The owner wants a raised spa that spills into the pool. Write the change order on the job; they sign it from a link or in Marco, and the job total updates.
Stage payments
Bill the deposit at signing, then progress bills as the build moves. Customers pay by card or bank from a link.
- Payments recorded on the invoice by themselves
- Files for QuickBooks Online and Xero
- Job costing shows budget against actual on every build
Every stage, every inspection, every sub.
- Permits and inspectionsEach application on the job with the town, permit number, dates and fee. Steel and bonding, electrical and final inspections under it. A failed one lines up the re-inspection.
- ScheduleDig day, inspections and meetings on one calendar across every job. Subscribe to it in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook.
- Purchase ordersOrder the pump, filter, heater and automation for the job. When it arrives, receive it onto the job or the shelf.
