Let's Have Coffee

About this app

Subby runs a home build from your phone. The programme, the money and the site record live in one place, so what you tell the client, the bank and your subcontractors always agree.

Open a build and everything sits behind one screen:

Timeline — a Gantt programme by phase, with today's line, what's done, what's running and how many days you're ahead or behind.

Cost — the contract value against committed and forecast cost, broken down by trade, with approved variations included so the final figure is never a surprise.

Payment Claims — raise a claim, track certification, retention and payment, and see what's outstanding and by how many days.

Variation Orders — price a change, send it for approval, and have it flow straight into the cost and the next claim.

Snag List — log a defect against a trade with a due date, then track it through fixed and closed.

Site Book — a dated site diary: who was on site, what happened, weather, delays and deliveries. The record you need when a claim or a delay is disputed.

Meetings & Inspections — site meeting agendas and minutes, with items carried to the next meeting, plus inspection outcomes recorded as passed, conditional or failed with the certificate on file.

Get Quotes — send one scope to several companies and compare the prices that come back, per unit and in total.

Directory — trades, contractors, consultants, engineers, quantity surveyors and suppliers, with the builds they've worked on. Message them from the listing.

Team — the companies on your build and who to call.

Built for South African residential construction: rand figures, NHBRC and CIDB details on company listings, WhatsApp to reach a trade, and inspection records that suit local sign-off.

For project managers and owner-builders running the build, and for the trades and contractors working on it. Share a build with a client or a partner and they see the same numbers you do.
