Built for fencing

Software for fencing contractors

Wood, vinyl, chain link, ornamental and gates — priced by the linear foot and complicated by the property line. Fencing quotes are quick to write and easy to get wrong once post spacing, gates and grade are counted. TradesOps prices the run properly, keeps the locate and the site photographs on the job, and gets the deposit in before the posts are bought.

Fencing job types

Wood, vinyl, chain link and ornamental fences carry different post spacing, panels and hardware, so the run prices correctly for the fence you are actually building.

Where fencing jobs lose money

Not the dramatic failures — the ordinary ones that happen on a normal week.

Gates and corners underpriced

Gates, corner posts, end posts and hardware come out of the run length rather than being added from memory at the end.

Property lines and locates disputed later

Photographs, the locate and site notes stay attached to the job, so where the line was agreed to be is on record with a date on it.

Buying posts before being paid anything

Deposit taken by card when the quote is signed, so the material order is not coming out of your own pocket.

Fencing questions

Does it price by the linear foot?

Yes. Enter the run length and it returns posts at the right spacing, panels or pickets, rails, concrete and hardware, with gates priced separately.

Can I record the locate and property line?

Yes. Photographs, notes and documents attach to the job with dates, so the agreed line and the locate are on record if there is ever a question.

Can the customer sign and pay from their phone?

Yes. Send the quote, they sign it electronically and pay the deposit by card, all without printing anything.
