Construction management software
A build in phases, billed in phases, no project office
Price the whole job, carry it through the framing, the drywall and the finish, and invoice each phase as it is signed off. Without paying for software written for a forty-person site.
The build is fine. The paperwork is what is behind.
Nobody loses money on a build because the framing was slow. They lose it in the gap between doing the work and billing for it.
- One price at the start, and a lot of assumptions inside it
- Changes agreed on site and remembered differently later
- Photos of what is behind the wall, in a camera roll of four thousand
- One invoice at handover, funded by you until then
- Scope as lines, and the maybes as options they tick or leave
- Every change quoted, approved and dated before it is built
- Progress photos on the build they belong to
- Each milestone invoiced as it is signed off
You are the estimator and the site manager and the one who invoices
Software for a commercial site assumes those are three people. Here they are all you, usually after six.
Optional lines settle the maybes
The upgrade the client is undecided on sits on the quote as a line they accept or decline, priced and dated.
Milestones, not one lump
Invoice the phase you finished and let the remaining balance work itself out.
What is behind the wall
Progress photos live on the build, so a question in month four has an answer that is not your memory.
Built for a job with phases
- 01
Quote the whole job, and the maybes separately
The core scope goes on as lines the customer approves, and the things they are still deciding go on as optional items they tick or leave. The upgrade they say yes to is agreed in writing rather than remembered differently once the drywall is up.
- 02
Carry one build across four months
Footings, framing, mechanical, drywall, finish. Photos and dates hang off the one build rather than a folder per week, so a question about what was there before the wall closed has an answer that is not your memory.
- 03
Invoice the milestone, not the whole job
Bill the framing when it is framed and the drywall when it is boarded. The balance still outstanding is worked out on the server each time, so a four-month build does not sit unpaid until the day you hand over the keys.
- 04
Put the change in writing while it is still cheap
A change halfway through becomes a quote they approve, not a conversation two people remember differently at the final account. A text saying "yeah go ahead" is not something you want to be reading out in a dispute.
Where a small builder actually loses the money
The margin on a build is decided in three places: what you assumed when you priced it, what changed without being priced, and how long you funded the work before anyone paid you.
Construction management software is what keeps those three visible while the build is still running, instead of at the final account when it is too late to do anything about them.
StrikeHoney is the version of that written for a builder who is on site, not for a company with a project office. It installs from the browser and works from the phone in your pocket.
- 01A quote with the optional work priced separately
- 02One build that stays open for months
- 03Invoices raised at each milestone
- 04Changes agreed in writing before they happen
- 05A final account that is only what is left
A phased build, before and after
Sound like your build?
One or two crews and you on site. No project office, no scheduler, and no appetite for software that assumes both.
- You run jobs that take weeks or months, not a morning.
- You bill in stages because nobody can fund a whole build.
- Changes happen mid-job and you want them agreed before they happen.
- You would rather not learn software designed for a commercial site.
Four invoices on one build, taxed right four times
Bill a build in stages and you do not calculate the tax once. You calculate it at the deposit, at each milestone and at the final account, on numbers that are large enough that a wrong rate is a real conversation.
The rate is read from your province and applied to every invoice on the build, and the totals collect in the tax report rather than in four separate places.
Not ready to sign up? Run a real milestone through the free calculator and see what the client owes on it, tax in.
| Province | Tax | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Ontario | HST | 13% |
| Alberta | GST | 5% |
| British Columbia | GST + PST | 5% + 7% |
| New Brunswick | HST | 15% |
A separate provincial tax is opt in, because whether it lands on labour or only on materials depends on the trade. Rates checked against the Canada Revenue Agency in August 2026.
One plan. Choose how often you pay.
You are already carrying the build. What you run it on should be the cheapest line in the job.
- Leads, quotes, jobs and invoicing
- Your own business phone number
- GST/HST worked out by province
- Cancel any time, export any time
Before you ask
Construction management software is how a contractor prices a build, keeps it together across the months it runs, and bills for it in stages. For a small outfit it takes the place of a spreadsheet, a folder and a very good memory.
No, and that is the point. Project management tools are built for long programmes and a dozen people with logins. This is built around one build moving from quote to milestone to final account, run by the person who is also on the tools.
Yes. Optional lines sit on the quote and the client accepts or declines each one, so the upgrade they wanted is agreed in writing and priced before it is built.
Yes. Bill any portion of the job as it is completed, including a single line, and the remaining balance is recalculated for you. A build billed in four pieces adds up correctly without you checking it by hand.
Raise it as a quote and have it approved before the work starts. It carries its own price and its own date, which is what you want if the final account is ever queried.
Both. It is built for one person first. Bring someone on and they get a stripped-down view of the jobs they are on, with the money hidden.
$24/mo CAD, everything included. Pay six months ahead and it works out to $21/mo CAD; pay for the year up front and it is $19/mo CAD. Same product, less money. One plan, no tiers, no add-ons.
