What bricklayers say about Trade2Base

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

โ€œI was losing track of material costs on extension jobs. Now every quote has engineering bricks, DPC and labour broken out. My margins are up and I have not had a scope dispute since I started using Trade2Base.โ€

โ€œRunning three sites at once used to be a nightmare with WhatsApp groups and spreadsheets. Now I can see every site in one place, schedule my lads across jobs and invoice on the day we finish. It has saved me hours every week.โ€

โ€œThe CSCS card storage has been a game changer for working with housing associations. I can send a compliance pack in two minutes instead of digging through emails. We have picked up three new contracts because of how professional it looks.โ€

Common questions from bricklayers

Can I quote large extension walls with pre-built materials lists?

Yes โ€” Trade2Base includes pre-built templates for extension and new build brickwork with line items for engineering bricks, facing bricks, blocks, sand, cement, DPC membrane, wall ties and mortar by mยฒ. You can adjust quantities, add waste allowances and the quote calculates totals automatically.

How do I manage multiple site bookings without double-booking my team?

The scheduling view shows all active sites and engineer availability in one calendar. Assign bricklayers to specific sites, set start and end dates per project and get clash warnings if an engineer is double-booked. You can see the full week or month across all sites at once.

Can I track materials used vs materials quoted per project?

Yes โ€” you can log materials consumed on site against the original quote. Trade2Base shows you the variance between quoted and actual material spend per job, helping you tighten future quotes and understand where costs are running over.

Can I connect Trade2Base to my builders' merchant account?

Trade2Base does not have a direct merchant account integration yet, but you can import or manually log material costs against each job. We are building integrations with major builders' merchants and will notify you when your supplier is supported.
