Stop the busywork

Bill concrete work without the spreadsheets

Slabs and foundations bill on a schedule of values with retainage held back. When pay apps and job costs live in spreadsheets, margin leaks and cash comes in slow. The wait is not your imagination: in [Billd's 2026 National Subcontractor Market Report](https://billd.com/resources/2026-market-report/), 64% of subcontractors reported slow payment from GCs, waiting an average of 51 days.

The spreadsheet way
  • Build pay apps in Excel
  • Forget retainage
  • Change orders unbilled
  • Job costs after the fact
With Werx
  • G702 and G703 style pay apps built for you
  • Retainage tracked
  • Change orders billed
  • Job costs in real time

Werx gets concrete contractors out of spreadsheets. Estimate, bill on a schedule of values, track job costs, and get paid in one app.

Pricing that scales with you, not against you

The money side of a concrete business for $49 a month

Construction billing and job costing platforms publish entry prices from $149 to $599 a month, with per-user fees up to $20 and features like job costing often gated to higher tiers (as of July 2026). Werx takes the opposite approach: flat plans from $49 a month, every feature on every plan, and users are $6.

For a concrete shop, that is less than a yard of concrete a month to run the entire office side. See pricing for the full breakdown, or compare Werx to the platforms you are looking at.

  • Every feature on every plan, from day one
  • AIA-style and progress billing, estimates, and job costing included
  • Users are $6 a month, time-only users $4, no caps
  • No contracts, 14-day free trial, no credit card
The problem

Where concrete contractors lose money

Most lost margin hides in billing and job costs. Here is where it slips, and how Werx catches it.

Pay apps stuck in Excel

GCs want G702 and G703 style pay apps. Werx builds them from your schedule of values.

AIA billing

Retainage you forget to chase

Retainage of 5 to 10 percent adds up across jobs. Werx tracks it on every pay app.

Progress billing

Unbilled change orders

Extra work in the field often never gets billed. Werx turns field tickets into billable change orders.

Change orders

No live job costs

Without real-time costs, concrete and pump costs surprise you late. Werx shows budget versus actual by cost code.

Job costing

Fuzzy crew and equipment hours

Paper time sheets cost you on payroll. Crews log time by job and cost code from the field.

Time tracking

Slow payments

Paper checks stall your cash. Let customers pay online by card or ACH.

Online payments

Features that move your concrete business forward

Werx gives concrete contractors the office tools to bid, bill, and get paid. Each one is built for trade work, not borrowed from a generic app.

Bill an AIA-style pay app and get paid

Concrete work bills on a schedule of values, not a flat invoice. Werx builds the G702 and G703 style pay application for you.

Set percent complete on each line. Werx calculates retainage and the current payment due. No spreadsheet, no math errors.

Send the pay app to the GC through a branded portal. They review and pay online. Learn more about AIA billing and what AIA billing is.

How a commercial concrete job bills in Werx

Say you win a $485,000 concrete package on a tilt-up warehouse. The contract bills monthly by percent complete against a schedule of values, with 10 percent retainage. In Werx, your schedule of values might break down like this:

SOV lineScheduled value% completeEarned to date
Mobilization and layout$20,000100%$20,000
Footings and foundations$110,00080%$88,000
Slab on grade$150,00040%$60,000
Tilt panels$165,00010%$16,500
Finish and closeout$40,0000%$0
Total$485,00038%$184,500

Update the percent complete on each line and Werx builds the G702 and G703 style pay application: $184,500 earned, $18,450 held as retainage, prior billings subtracted, and the current payment due computed for you. When the GC adds a pour or bumps a slab spec, the approved change order rolls into the next pay app on its own line. For the method behind the math, see our guides to the schedule of values and WIP reporting.

Why concrete contractors choose Werx

Most field apps skip the hard part: real billing and job costing. Werx is built for it.

Built for the trades

Made for contractors who bill commercial work on a schedule of values, not a plain invoice tool.

Real AIA-style billing

G702 and G703 style pay apps with retainage. Most small-shop tools cannot do this.

Know your margin

Live job costs and profit on every job, so you catch losses while you can still fix them.

Works with QuickBooks

Two-way sync with QuickBooks Online on every plan, at no extra cost.

One office system

Estimates, billing, costs, time, and payments in one place. No juggling apps.

QuickBooks Online Integration

Your books stay in QuickBooks, your billing moves to Werx

Most concrete shops already run QuickBooks Online, and the bookkeeper wants to keep it. Werx leaves the books where they are. Pay apps, invoices, payments, and job expenses sync both ways, so what you bill in Werx is exactly what your accountant sees in QuickBooks. Month end stops being a hunt for missing invoices.

What is concrete contractor software?

Concrete contractor software is an office tool that handles estimates, billing, job costs, and payments for concrete companies. It replaces spreadsheets and paper for the money side of the business.

It is a crowded trade. The Census Bureau's 2023 County Business Patterns counts 23,350 poured concrete foundation and structure contractor establishments in the U.S. The labor pool is steady too: BLS 2024-34 projections show 206,700 cement masons and concrete finishers employed in 2024, with 2 percent growth by 2034 and about 14,300 openings a year, at a May 2025 BLS median wage of $57,020. The shops that stand out are the ones whose billing keeps pace with their pours.

Werx is built for commercial concrete work. Bill slabs and foundations on a schedule of values with progress and AIA-style billing, and track retainage to the end of the job.

Track labor and equipment from the field, see job costs in real time, and sync to QuickBooks. You bid, bill, and get paid from one place.
