Building a home means managing the project and the homeowner experience at the same time.

If your team needs a spreadsheet to manage selections or a separate thread to keep homeowners updated, your software may be making residential work harder than it needs to be. Every selection, change order and client update can affect the budget, the schedule and the relationship you’re building, so the technology supporting those workflows should be designed around how residential teams work.

Our latest blog explores why commercial-first platforms can leave gaps in everyday residential workflows and what builders should look for instead. Read more:

The systems that helped you manage five projects may struggle when you’re managing fifteen.

As construction businesses grow, more projects mean more schedules, documents, decisions and financial details to keep aligned. Adding another tool for every new challenge can leave teams with more places to look and more work connecting the dots.

Edgemont Builders took a different approach, their team introduced Buildertrend in stages. Starting with Daily Logs and documents before bringing subcontractors into the workflow and adding Purchase Orders. Each step gave the team time to build a process they would actually use.

Our latest blog looks at what growing contractors need from their technology, with lessons from Edgemont, Ebersole Builders LLC, Meg & Co. Designer Homes and Killowen Construction. Read it here:

More revenue doesn’t automatically mean a stronger construction business. When you’re running an established, high-revenue building company, growth is about more than adding projects to the schedule. You need to know which jobs are meeting their target margins, where costs are shifting and whether taking on more work is improving the health of the business.

That’s why visibility into job costs, committed costs, cash flow and performance across projects matters. It helps leaders decide which opportunities are worth pursuing, where to make adjustments and how to grow with intention instead of measuring success by how busy the team is.

See how Buildertrend can help you scale with greater visibility into your business:

We’re excited to announce our new integration with Bluebeam!

Our customers have been asking for a better way to mark up documents with their teams. It’s easy to see why: Send the PDF, gather feedback, get sign-off. But when comments come back on three different copies, someone has to piece together what changed and which version everyone should use. Across several projects, that adds up fast.

Now, teams can start a Bluebeam review from a Submittal or RFI in Buildertrend, mark up PDFs together with reviewers and subs, and bring the finished version back into the project record.

Fewer files passed back and forth. Less time tracking down the latest version. More confidence that everyone is working from the same information as your business grows.

See how it works:

You know your business better than anyone. You know your revenue, your margins, your team and the challenges you're working through. But how do you know if you're performing at the level you should be?

For established builders, understanding what's happening beyond your own business can be just as valuable as understanding what's happening within it.

Are your margins keeping pace with builders of a similar size? Are the challenges you're facing unique to your operation, or are other construction businesses experiencing the same thing? And where might there be opportunities to improve?

That's why Buildertrend, CBUSA and Association of Professional Builders (APB) are gathering insights for the 2027 State of Residential Construction Industry report.

By taking just 15 minutes to share your perspective, you're helping create industry benchmarks that give builders a clearer understanding of business performance, challenges and opportunities for growth. Because better business decisions start with better information, and sometimes the most valuable insights come from looking beyond your own numbers.

Take 15 minutes today to help build a clearer picture of our industry and see how your business stacks up when the report is released.

Making money on the job and having the cash when you need it are two different things. As projects get bigger, the timing of draws, change orders, payments and costs matters even more.
