Branded estimates & invoices
Send clean, itemized estimates and numbered invoices with your business name, logo, and license number on them — text or email, straight from your phone. You look like a real shop because you are one.
Customers approve from their phone
Send a branded approval link. Your customer reviews the estimate, sees the photos, and taps Approve — logged with their name, the time, and the amount, with re-authorization if the job grows.
Real profit, not just revenue
Every board, roll of tape, and bucket of mud carries a private "your cost" the customer never sees. The Money tab shows what a hang-and-finish job actually paid you, not just what you billed.
Photos that document the work
Snap the water-stained ceiling, the taped seams, and the finished level-5 wall, then text them to the customer. Proof that gets the job approved, and a record of the work once it's painted over.
One flow, start to paid
Quote the hang, get it approved, invoice the finish, get paid — all on one drywall job, all from your phone. It flips to Paid automatically at a zero balance.
Dust & old-wall hazards noted
Sanding dust, possible silica, and pre-1978 lead or pre-1980 asbestos in old compound — SideWRK flags it on the job and keeps your photo record. The rules surfaced, never legal advice.
From first call to "paid" in three steps
Write it up
Add the customer and the job, then the work — labor, materials, a photo. Send a branded estimate in a tap.
Send it
Text or email the estimate. The customer reviews the photos and taps Approve — authorization logged automatically.
Get paid
It becomes a numbered invoice with your details on it. Record payment, and your real profit lands in Money.
What should a drywall contractor charge?
Drywall is priced per square foot or per board for hang-and-finish, with texture and repair as variables. Here's how it's priced, plus free calculators to find your number.
Hang and finish per square foot
New drywall is priced per square foot (or per board) to hang, tape, and finish to a smooth, paint-ready surface.
Finish level and texture
A higher finish level (think level 5 for critical lighting) and texture matching add labor over a standard finish.
Repair vs new, access
Patches and water-damage repairs are priced by the job; high ceilings, tight access, and dust control move the number.
