Built for how general contractors work.

Managing complex projects requires coordinating multiple trades, materials, and timelines. Your estimates should reflect that expertise. Krue understands construction terminology, knows subcontractor coordination, and generates estimates that communicate the complexity of managing entire projects to clients who don't know a change order from a punch list.

Speaks Your Language

Krue is trained on general contracting terminology:

Scope of work coordination across trades

Change orders and RFIs

Subcontractor scheduling and management

Permit applications and inspections

Draw schedules and payment applications

Punch list management and closeout

You say "2,400 sq ft ground-up build with three subs, phased schedule, and monthly draws." Krue knows exactly what that involves, what it costs, and how to break it down by phase.

General Contracting-Specific Pricing

Labor costs by trade discipline:

Site prep and excavation
Framing and structural work
MEP coordination (mechanical, electrical, plumbing)
Finish carpentry and millwork
Project management and supervision

Materials and project costs:

Material procurement with vendor pricing
Subcontractor markups and fees
Permit costs and inspection fees
Contingencies by project phase

Professional Presentation

Your estimates include:

General contractor license and bonding information
Insurance details (general liability and workers comp)
Permit handling and inspection coordination
Schedule management by project phase
Warranty coverage and terms
Lien waiver and AIA contract compliance

Clients see an estimate from an established general contractor, even if you've been in business six months.

"Running a GC business means juggling five subcontractors, three material suppliers, and constant site management. I didn't have time to spend hours on estimates. Krue changed that. Now I describe the scope, it handles the breakdown by trade, and I'm sending professional estimates while my competitors are still measuring. My pipeline tripled in four months."
