Sound familiar?

  • Waste is a guess, and the guess is paid for twice.

    Short a box at the end, or three boxes left in the garage. Either way, margin.

  • GCs need flooring the week after paint.

    The job goes to whoever can be reached, not whoever does it right.

  • Floor prep and the extra closet never get billed.

    Leveling, transitions, an added room — done, not invoiced.

01 Estimate the job

From the room photo to a takeoff with waste.

Upload photos or plans. BuildRTX drafts square footage with waste, prep, labor and material from your real costs, so the margin is in the number before you send it.

Questions flooring contractors ask

Is BuildRTX for flooring contractors?

Yes. C-15 contractors use it to estimate, invoice and track profit on their own jobs, and to receive bid requests from general contractors on the BuildRTX network.

Does it figure waste?

Yes. The takeoff includes flooring with waste and flags where to verify measurements on site before ordering.

How do general contractors find me?

GCs search the network for licensed flooring contractors near their job. Your license is checked live against the CSLB, and your ratings come from real BuildRTX jobs.

Does it work on a phone?

BuildRTX is built phone-first. It runs in the browser on iPhone and Android with nothing to install.
