BuildMeasure turns the tape measure in a builder's hand into a priced quote and a material order — no spreadsheet, no office, no reception bars.
South African builders only, for now. No spam — one mail when the beta opens.
Thanks — you're on the list. We'll be in touch.
| Material | Net | Order |
|---|---|---|
| Bricks (stock) | 2 246.4 Ea | 2 359 Ea +5% |
| Cement (50 kg bag) | 7.65 bag | 10 bag +25% |
| Building sand | 0.95 m³ | 1.19 m³ +25% |
| Brickforce | 173.66 m | 182.35 m +5% |
Net take-off vs. what you actually order. Wastage and pack sizes applied — 104 bricks/m² at 220 mm, SANS 2001-CM1.
What it does
Built from the calculators South African builders already use — checked against SANS and Cement & Concrete SA, not guessed at.
Measure, take-off and priced quote on one screen. Stop losing jobs to whoever quotes first.
Nine SA calculators plus a window and door schedule become material orders that round up to real pack sizes — 50 kg bags, m³ of sand, bricks by the pallet.
An editable rate library you own. Every saved job snapshots the rate it used, so changing a price today never rewrites last month's quote. Clients see your quoted rates — never your cost or your margin.
Rand, 15% VAT, metric. Brickforce and lintel-bearing rules, prestressed-lintel stock lengths, and the mortar wastage the CCSA actually advises — built in, not bolted on.
Everything works with no signal — the app writes to the phone in your hand, not to a server you can't reach. When you have signal it syncs, so a measurement taken on site is on the office desktop by the time you're back.
Who it's for
Runs a 4–12 person firm. Quotes on evenings and weekends in a spreadsheet, and loses jobs because it takes days. Wants quotes that win work — and to stop over-ordering bricks.
Prices work for a mid-size contractor. Fights spreadsheet errors and rates that differ across the team. Wants one rate library, quick take-offs, and documents that look the part.
Measures on site, on his phone, marking openings and lintels as he goes. Wants to capture once, with no signal, and have the office see it the moment he's back in range.
Pricing
Planned pricing for launch — beta builders get Pro free for the beta, and a founding price after it.
We're taking a small group of South African builders into the beta. You'll shape what gets built next — and you'll never pay launch price.
