CRM for general contractors
For a general contractor the expensive mistake is not a missed call — it is spending a day estimating work that was never going to happen, while a serious project waits for a reply. Remodels and builds are decided over weeks by people gathering numbers, so the businesses that win are the ones that qualify early and follow up patiently.
What is a CRM for general contractors?
A CRM for general contractors is one place that holds every enquiry — calls, forms, quotes and bookings — and moves each one through the stages of your real job: contacted, quoted, scheduled, completed and paid. Revora adds the parts a generic CRM leaves to you: instant quoting on your own factors, online booking on your availability, automatic follow-up until the customer replies, and a review request after the job is done.
What actually goes wrong for general contractors
Unqualified enquiries eat estimating time
Site visits and takeoffs are expensive. Without scope, timeline and budget captured up front, the calendar fills with visits that could never convert.
Bids get decided long after they are sent
A remodel bid may sit for a month while the homeowner collects comparisons and arranges financing. A bid nobody follows up on is a bid that loses by default.
Job history lives in too many places
Scope changes agreed by text, selections agreed by phone and pricing agreed by email leave no single record when a dispute or a follow-on job comes up.
Past clients are the cheapest source of work
Kitchen clients become bathroom clients and refer neighbours, but only if the relationship is recorded and worked rather than remembered.
How the Revora system handles it
1.Enquiry forms that ask qualifying questions first
Capture scope, service type, location and the customer's own description before a site visit is booked, so your estimating hours go to real projects.
2.A visible pipeline from enquiry to completed
Each project moves through stages you can see, so you always know which bids are outstanding and which have gone quiet.
3.Written proposals sent as a link
Build proposals from your own service list and pricing, send them as a link, and see when the client opens them.
4.Follow-up that survives a long decision
Automated email and text follow-up keeps outstanding bids in front of the client over weeks, without you setting reminders.
5.One record per client and project
Contact details, job details, quotes and activity live on one record, exportable at any time, so nothing depends on scrolling a text thread.
6.Reviews and referrals asked for on purpose
Completed projects trigger a one-tap review request, which is what makes you findable to the next homeowner searching locally.
When something else is better
If your real bottleneck is running the build — scheduling subcontractors, tracking submittals and RFIs, managing change orders and progress billing across large commercial projects — you need a construction project management platform. We handle getting and converting the work, not managing the jobsite.
What it costs
$350 one-time setup, charged today. Your first month of the $100/month platform fee is FREE — your first monthly payment is charged 30 days later (month two) and continues at $100/month unless canceled. Cancel anytime, and your website, customer list and job history stay yours and exportable.
Questions people ask
Is this construction project management software?
No, and it is worth being clear about that. This is the system that wins and converts work: website, lead capture, quoting, booking, follow-up, reviews and reporting. Jobsite management, submittals and progress billing belong in a dedicated project management tool.
How much does it cost?
$350 one time to build and launch your system, your first month of the $100/month platform fee free, then $100/month from month two. Cancel anytime, and your website, customer list and job history stay yours and exportable.
Can I use my own proposal pricing and services?
Yes. Every quote is built from the services, durations and prices you define, so nothing is sent that you did not set.
Do I own the website and the customer data?
Yes. The website, the customer records, the quote history and the lead data belong to your business, not to us, and you can export them whenever you want.
