BidClaw helps residential contractors build accurate, professional estimates in minutes — not hours. Win more bids, protect your margins, and look like a $10M outfit on a $2M budget.
Start Free Trial — No Credit Card RequiredNo bloat. No 47-tab dashboards. Just the tools a crew of 1-10 actually uses.
Create professional, line-item estimates using real cost categories — materials, labor, equipment, subs, and overhead. Pre-built templates for painting, remodeling, plumbing, HVAC, concrete, and more. Export branded PDFs your customers will take seriously.
Track every job from lead to invoice across 9 clear stages. See which estimates are pending, which jobs are active, and where your revenue is stuck. Just the pipeline view that matters for 5-15 active jobs.
Every customer, every estimate, every line item in one place. Reuse templates across jobs. Clone past estimates for repeat customers. Your pricing library gets faster and more accurate over time.
Built for sub-$5M residential contractors. Not enterprise GCs. Not $500/month bloatware. BidClaw does one thing — help small contractors estimate faster, bid smarter, and win more work.
"I used to spend Sunday nights building estimates in Excel. Now I knock them out on-site before I leave the walkthrough."
"My close rate went from maybe 30% to over 50% once I started sending real estimates instead of napkin math."

No. The 14-day free trial requires only an email address. You won't be charged unless you choose a plan after your trial ends.
The opposite — BidClaw was built for you. The Starter plan ($29/mo) gives you everything a solo contractor needs: trade templates, branded PDFs, customer tracking, and a job pipeline. No features you'll never use.
Yes. You can upload customers via CSV, and you can clone or customize any of the built-in trade templates to match your existing pricing.
Those tools are either too simple (Joist's free tier lacks real job tracking) or too complex and expensive (Buildertrend starts at $499/mo). BidClaw sits in the sweet spot — real estimating power, full pipeline management, and pricing that makes sense for a crew under $5M in annual revenue.
BidClaw ships with templates for painting, bathroom remodeling, kitchen remodeling, flooring, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, concrete, landscaping, and handyman services. You can also build unlimited custom templates.
