BradWay Construction &amp; Restoration serves stressed homeowners who struggle with the uncertainty of project design and the frustration that results from poor craftsmanship.<\/p><p>\u201cSo many times they&#8217;ll hire a trade, either they don&#8217;t trust them, they don&#8217;t know them, or there&#8217;s no references, and then their final product is not what they want,\u201d Josh Bradley said. \u201cMy favorite thing about being a home builder is helping the customer get exactly what they paid for.\u201d<\/p><p>Helping the customer means completing all sorts of residential construction projects, from structural repair, renovations, to new builds, to unique amenities like curved stairways and intricate archways. Delivering this kind of diverse work has fueled BradWay Construction\u2019s has grown mainly by word-of-mouth.\u00a0<\/p><p>But that growth took a toll on Josh in term of his time, and ultimately, his health. Before using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildxact.com\/nz\/\"><b>construction management software<\/b><\/a>, estimating a home project required hours of meticulous work, listing individual tasks and then figuring out the amount of materials and labour needed to complete those tasks.<\/p><h2><b>Spreadsheets proved too cumbersome<\/b><\/h2><p>Before using construction management software, he spent a great deal of time using computer spreadsheets that became hard to manage. The spreadsheets ended up pages long and could disrupt hours of work, Josh said.<\/p><p>\u201cI&#8217;d wait for the kids to go to bed, and then I&#8217;d work until 2 or 3 in the morning finishing work, getting work, and every time I would quote something, I&#8217;d have to do it over again for the next project. And there&#8217;s no templates, no storage (with spreadsheets); so I just started over every project.\u201d<\/p><p>\u00a0And all of this work, often late into the night, wore him down.<\/p><p>\u201cI had heart palpitations, all kinds of stuff. I was missing so much sleep. So I talked to my business partner, I&#8217;m like, \u2018Hey, we have got to find something that takes away some of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildxact.com\/nz\/features\/construction-estimating-software\/\"><b>headache with estimating<\/b><\/a>.\u2019\u201d<\/p><p>That something turned out to be Buildxact.<\/p><p>Running his construction company became more efficient once Josh started using Buildxact, he said. Buildxact cleared away the clutter because it brings all facets of job management\u2014customer management, takeoffs, estimates, schedules and invoices\u2014all into one simple platform.<\/p><p>\u201cBefore, we&#8217;d write a name down, and then it would make it to an email, then it progressed to a piece of paper, then to a spreadsheet, and it just became like four or five places where I was keeping this information. If you saw my desk, it would be a stack of things. Whereas Buildxact has consolidated all of that into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildxact.com\/nz\/features\/\"><b>one point of access.<\/b><\/a>&#8220;<\/p><h2><b>Pricing home builds more accurately with software<\/b><\/h2><p>A great advantage to using Buildxact is the ability to pull material price and labour estimates based on geographical location using the software\u2019s pricing assistant, Josh said.<\/p><p>Estimates from successful jobs can then be saved as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildxact.com\/nz\/features\/construction-quoting-software\/\"><b>project templates<\/b><\/a> to speed up estimating for future projects of similar size and scope. Josh also uploaded into Buildxact a lot of the data he already built into spreadsheets to make a simple transition from spreadsheets to Buildxact construction estimating software.<\/p><p>\u201cGetting started with Buildxact was pretty easy,\u201d he said. \u201cIt was actually intuitive because it&#8217;s set up in a way that you would follow in real life. It&#8217;s all right there, and there&#8217;s tutorials to step you through some of the pieces of the software if you struggle or get hung up.\u201d<\/p><h2><b><br \/>Managing construction projects more efficiently<\/b><\/h2><p>Working through problems, having the perseverance to succeed. has served Josh well over the past few years. To date, he\u2019s built his business largely on word-of-mouth and the quality of his work. But now he\u2019s ready to scale his business.<\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18216 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.buildxact.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/465A7691-2-750x500-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Builder Josh Bradway uses Buildxact on a laptop to manage his project\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>\u201cWe have no marketing, no website, no Facebook, no social media, and yet we&#8217;re booked out,\u201d he said. \u201cWe&#8217;re above and beyond honest with our customers, and they trust us enough to refer us to other customers. And that has worked for almost two years. Of course, referrals, it&#8217;s hard to scale referrals, and so that&#8217;s why we&#8217;re getting into the marketing side.\u201d<\/p><p>With Buildxact, marketing will become easier because all of his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildxact.com\/nz\/features\/customer-communication-software\/\"><b>customer information <\/b><\/a>is now in one place where it can be shared among his team. One of the best features of Buildxact is the time it saves by bringing customer communication, quoting and scheduling together while leaving paper notes, spreadsheets and cumbersome email behind.<\/p><p>\u201cIt\u2019s almost like hiring a couple of people at a much lower cost,\u201d he said.<\/p><h2><strong>Ready to try Buildxact?<\/strong><\/h2><p>Schedule a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildxact.com\/nz\/schedule-a-demo\/\">live demo<\/a><\/strong>, or if you are ready to get started today, sign up for a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/app.buildxact.com\/nz\/signup.html\">risk-free trial<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-74d1c810 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"74d1c810\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3c892ae\" data-id=\"3c892ae\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-298ac8b6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"298ac8b6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f8a2272 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-laptop__width-initial elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-button\" data-id=\"5f8a2272\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\" >\t\t<div class=\"ekit-btn-wraper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildxact.com\/schedule-a-demo\/\" class=\"elementskit-btn  whitespace--normal\" id=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\tBook a Demo\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n        <\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-31ae72c2 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-laptop__width-auto elementor-align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-button\" data-id=\"31ae72c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\" >\t\t<div class=\"ekit-btn-wraper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/app.buildxact.com\/signup.html\" class=\"elementskit-btn  whitespace--normal\" id=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t14 Day Free Trial\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n        <\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5b4b78a9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"5b4b78a9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Estimating took a toll on Josh in terms of his time and health.
