Getting started as a builder

What Tidy Builder does for you and the five things to try first.

  1. Step 1: Open your Today page. It shows what needs you across all your jobs.

  2. Step 2: Follow the Getting started list at the top. Each step ticks itself off when it's done.

  3. Step 3: Add your business details, so they appear on your quotes and contracts.

  4. Step 4: Start your first job. Your client gets a free link to their own project page.

  5. Step 5: Then send the quote, turn it into a contract and write up a site visit.

What happens next

From then on, everything you and your client agree is written down in one place. Nobody can say "but you said…".

Good to know

  • Your clients never pay. Agreeing, messaging and sharing drawings are always free for them.
  • The round ? at the top of every page brings you back to these guides.
