Bill waterproofing work without the spreadsheets
Commercial waterproofing bills 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. It is not just your GCs: 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 money side of a waterproofing 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 waterproofing contractor, that is less than one crack injection repair 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

Where waterproofing contractors lose money

Pay apps stuck in Excel
GCs want G702 and G703 style pay apps. Werx builds them from your schedule of values.
AIA billingRetainage you forget to chase
Retainage of 5 to 10 percent adds up across jobs. Werx tracks it on every pay app.
Progress billingUnbilled change orders
Extra work in the field often never gets billed. Werx turns field tickets into billable change orders.
Change ordersNo live job costs
Without real-time costs, material and labor overruns hit late. Werx shows budget versus actual by cost code.
Job costingFuzzy crew hours
Paper time sheets cost you on payroll. Crews log time by job and cost code from the field.

Bill an AIA-style pay app and get paid
Waterproofing 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 waterproofing job bills in Werx
Say you take an $88,000 waterproofing subcontract on an apartment podium: below-grade membrane plus a plaza deck. The GC pays monthly by percent complete and holds 10 percent retainage. Your schedule of values in Werx might read:
| SOV line | Scheduled value | % complete | Earned to date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mobilization and surface prep | $8,000 | 100% | $8,000 |
| Foundation membrane | $34,000 | 75% | $25,500 |
| Drainage board and protection | $16,000 | 50% | $8,000 |
| Plaza deck coating | $22,000 | 0% | $0 |
| Flood test and closeout | $8,000 | 0% | $0 |
| Total | $88,000 | 47% | $41,500 |
From those lines Werx builds the G702 and G703 style pay application: $41,500 earned, $4,150 held as retainage, prior billings deducted, and the current payment due totaled without a spreadsheet. If the GC adds a planter or an extra elevator pit, the approved change order flows onto the next pay app. For the groundwork, see our guides to the schedule of values and WIP reporting.
Send a pay app your GC can pay online
Your GC opens a clean, branded pay application. They see the schedule of values, retainage, and the amount due. They pay by card or ACH, and you get the cash sooner.
