- Quote in Excel
- Invoice by hand
- Change orders unbilled
- Job costs after the fact
- Quote fast in Werx
- Bill or progress-bill
- Change orders billed
- Job costs in real time
Werx gets carpenters out of spreadsheets. Quote, invoice or bill by progress, take payment, and track job costs in one app.
The money side of a carpentry 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 carpentry shop, that is less than one hung-and-cased door 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
- Estimates, invoicing, progress billing, and job costing included
- Users are $6 a month, time-only users $4, no caps
- No contracts, 14-day free trial, no credit card
Where carpenters lose money
Most lost margin hides in quoting, billing, and job costs. Here is where it slips, and how Werx catches it.
Slow quotes lose jobs
A late quote loses the job. Build clean estimates fast and send them for online approval.
EstimatesMissed invoices
Small jobs add up and some never get billed. Invoice each one fast so none slip through.
Invoicing and paymentsBig jobs billed late
Build-outs need phased billing. Bill by progress instead of one lump invoice.
Progress billingUnbilled change orders
Extra scope often never gets billed. Werx turns field tickets into change orders.
Change ordersNo profit picture
Without job costs, you cannot tell which jobs make money. Track cost and profit per job.
Job costingChasing checks
Waiting on mailed checks slows your cash. Let customers pay by card or ACH online.

What a trim package estimate looks like
Say a builder asks you to price the trim package on a two-story house: hang and case the doors, case the windows, run base everywhere, crown the main floor. In Werx, the estimate might break down like this:
| Estimate line | Qty | Rate | Line total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interior doors, hung and cased | 14 doors | $175 per door | $2,450 |
| Window casing | 11 windows | $90 per window | $990 |
| Baseboard | 640 linear ft | $3.50 per ft | $2,240 |
| Crown molding, main floor | 320 linear ft | $6.00 per ft | $1,920 |
| Total | $7,600 |
The check is simple: $2,450 + $990 + $2,240 + $1,920 = $7,600. Because every line is a count times a rate, the next trim package prices in minutes: change the counts, keep your rates. When the builder adds a stair skirt and two cased openings mid-job, that is a change order priced the same way and added to the bill, not done for free. And since hours and material receipts land on the job as you go, you find out whether $175 a door actually pays before you price the next house. Need footage counts first? The baseboard calculator turns room dimensions into linear feet.
A quote and invoice your customer can approve and pay online
Your customer opens a clean, branded estimate or invoice. They approve or pay in a couple of taps. You see when they open it, so nothing stalls.
