Tuffstone · Construction management for builders whose office is a truck

Run your builds
from your phone.

Home build organization for general contractors and custom home builders: one job board per build. Track your bids, orders, bills, calendar, build sequence, notes, docs, photos, and email, live-synced to your entire construction crew. Every morning at 7, contractors get a brief of what's overdue, due today, and what's coming this week, so nothing gets lost or forgotten.

Where Tuffstone came from

A construction management app born on a real custom home job site

My dad builds custom homes at the Lake of the Ozarks. For years he ran every one of them off a paper checklist on the dash of his truck. Bids unorganized in email, receipts stuffed in a folder, dates in his head. When we started working on two houses at once, it broke. So we built a job board our whole family could see from our phones. Then we started adding our subs' bids to it. Then we added bills. Then we created a custom calendar that emailed us each morning. Now our Blue Bonnet and Chimney Cove projects both run off it. I want other contractors to have the chance to make their job sites run like ours.

What does Tuffstone come with?

Each feature was built in service of a real job site. Every tab exists because something got missed once.

Construction bid tracking

Bids that don't get lost.

Every trade, its sub, its number, its status (NEED, REQUESTED, BID IN, AWARDED), with the actual quote PDF attached. "What'd Vernon quote?" is two taps, not a scroll through 400 emails.

Long-lead material order alerts

Before it's too late.

Windows, cabinets, garage doors, flooring: the long-lead items that stall a build. Deadlines chained off your framing date, so the cabinets are ordered 8 weeks out, not 8 days.

Construction bill and invoice tracking

Payable from the couch.

Vendor, amount, due date, invoice attached, PAID toggle. Overdue turns red. Unpaid bills land on the calendar and in the morning brief until you check them off.

Email-to-job-site filing

Forward it. It's filed.

Every project gets an address. Forward a bid, an estimate, an invoice. The subject, body, and attachments get filed to that house, forever, visible to the crew. Forwarding is the filing.

Home construction sequence and scheduling

With who to call.

Footings poured → call the plumber and framer. Walls poured → truss measure. The order of operations your best super carries in his head, written down, checkable, shared.

Daily contractor morning brief

7am, every house.

Overdue. Today. Tomorrow. Next 7 days. Inspections, order deadlines, bills. Mark it done in the app and it drops off tomorrow's email. Quiet week? It stays quiet.

Job site notes, documents, and photos

Per house, forever.

Job-site notes with replies and reactions. A binder for permits, plan sets, contracts. Photos straight from the phone. Everything tagged to the project it belongs to.

Construction crew access

Your crew, your call.

Start with one shared team code: fast, zero friction. Flip to real per-person login with invite-by-email whenever you want. Either way: your own private database. Nothing shared with anyone.

Mobile construction management app

Installs on the phone.

Add to home screen and it launches full-screen like a native app. Works on iPhone and Android. Syncs every 15 seconds. Unlimited houses, unlimited crew.
