Built inside a glazing contractor — literally
BuildWorkPro started as the internal tool of National Glass and Construction, our founder's own South Florida glass and glazing company. Every workflow on this page runs that company's real bids, real pay applications, and real installs today — which is why bids are organized by mark and supplier parts price as sublines, the way a glass shop actually estimates.
Why glazing contractors use BuildWorkPro
Bid by mark, priced from supplier parts
Every opening is a line item with its mark — W1, D3, SF-2 — and the hardware, glass, and metal that make it up go in as costed sublines from your supplier part numbers, with your markup applied systematically. See bidding & estimating.
A catalog that remembers your parts and rates
Hinges, channels, rollers, glass makeups, and metal live in a product catalog with your costs; installer and fabricator labor lives in saved labor rates. The next shower or storefront prices from the catalog in minutes instead of from last month's spreadsheet.
Field measures become paid change orders
The opening that measured off from the plans, the lite that arrived broken, the scope the GC added on site — write it up as a change order with priced line items. Once approved, it rolls into the contract sum so the next pay app bills the right number.
Bill by floor, elevation, or scope
Build a schedule of values that mirrors the job — storefront by elevation, interior glass by floor, showers by unit — and submit AIA-style pay applications for the percent complete each period, with retainage tracked on every line.
Put deliveries and damage on the record
Glass arrived scratched, the opening wasn't ready, the inspector signed off — write a dated site log with photos the day it happens. When a GC questions the schedule or a backcharge appears months later, you have a contemporaneous record instead of memory.
One pipeline for GCs, PMs, and homeowners
Glazing work comes from everywhere — GCs bidding you on storefronts, property managers with broken glass, homeowners wanting showers. Track every lead on one pipeline with each bid and job tied to the contact it came from.
Everything you need at one flat price
$79/month for unlimited users and projects. No per-user fees.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best software for glass and glazing contractors?
BuildWorkPro was built inside a working glazing contractor — National Glass and Construction, the founder’s own South Florida glass company — so the workflow matches how glass shops actually run: line-item bids organized by mark and priced from supplier parts, change orders for field measures, AIA-style pay applications to GCs, and dated site logs, at $79/month flat with unlimited users. It fits commercial and residential glazing subs doing storefronts, shower enclosures, railings, mirrors, and impact windows and doors.
How do I bid glazing jobs from supplier part numbers?
Each opening goes in as a line item with its mark, and the hardware, glass, and metal that make it up go in as costed sublines — priced from your supplier part numbers and kept in a product catalog you reuse bid after bid. Labor comes from your saved labor rates, markup is applied systematically instead of re-derived in a spreadsheet each time, and the GC or homeowner sees a clean PDF proposal without your cost breakdown.
How does progress billing work for glazing subcontractors?
You build a schedule of values by floor, elevation, or scope — storefront, curtain wall, interior glass, mirrors — then submit an AIA-style pay application each period billing the percent complete on every line. Retainage is calculated automatically, and each pay app moves through approval statuses so you always know what has been submitted, approved, and paid.
How do I handle field measures and broken glass as change orders?
The opening that measured off from the plans, the lite that arrived broken, the scope the GC added on site — each becomes a change order with priced line items, backed by dated site-log photos taken when it happened. Once approved (e-signature included), the change order rolls into the contract sum so your next pay application bills against the right number instead of the original contract.
