Everything a carpenter needs — in one app
Quote trim, doors, and built-ins
Price a room of crown, a door install, a run of baseboard, or a custom built-in — each as its own line, with your private material and time cost behind it so you know the real number.
Photo proof of the finish
Snap the tight miters, the scribed casing, the finished built-in. The customer sees the quality on the invoice — and you have a portfolio and a record of exactly what you delivered.
Customers approve from their phone
Text a branded estimate for the built-in or the whole-house trim package. The customer taps Approve — logged with their name, the time, and the amount — before you buy the stain-grade stock.
Get paid your way
Take a card in the app, or send a tap-to-pay request to Venmo, Cash App, PayPal, or Zelle — no merchant account, no waiting. Jobs flip to Paid the moment the balance hits zero.
Real profit, not just revenue
Every board foot of trim, every door, every box of fasteners carries a private "your cost" the customer never sees — so the Money tab shows what each job actually nets you.
Deposits before you buy material
Collect a deposit on the approved estimate, so the customer's money is in before you order the millwork — not after the built-in is already hanging.
From walkthrough to "paid" in three steps
Measure it up
Add the customer and job site, then quote the trim, doors, or built-in — each line with your material and time cost behind it.
Send it
Text a branded estimate. The customer reviews it and taps Approve — authorization and deposit logged automatically.
Get paid
Record the card, Venmo, or Zelle payment; the job flips to Paid and your real profit lands in the Money tab.

Carpentry FAQ
Is SideWRK good for a solo finish carpenter?
Yes — it is built for the one-person shop. Quote a room of crown at the walkthrough, get the built-in approved with a deposit, snap the finished miters, and get paid from your phone, without the crew software the big platforms push.
Can I quote trim, doors, and a built-in on the same job?
Yes. Each is its own line — crown per room, a door install, a run of casing, a custom built-in — with your private material and time cost behind it for a true profit number.
How do customers pay me?
Any way you like. Take a card in the app, or send a tap-to-pay request to Venmo, Cash App, PayPal, Zelle, or Apple Pay — no merchant account required.
Can I collect a deposit before I buy material?
Yes. Send the branded estimate, the customer taps Approve, and you collect a deposit — so their money is in before you order the stain-grade stock or the millwork.
How much does it cost?
Single Trade (carpentry only) is $24/month. Multi-Trade is $39/month and unlocks every trade plus the in-app switcher. Pro is $89/month for full-time operators. Every plan starts with 14 free days — no card required. You're only charged after you pick a plan. There's no permanent free tier.
