Build Your Carpentry Workshop's Website, Quotes and Project Tracker with AI

Mythex builds the software a carpentry workshop actually uses: a portfolio website with an enquiry form that asks for room sizes and photos, a quote builder that reuses your standard components, and one project record that follows each commission from site survey to install. You describe how your workshop runs in plain words, watch it take shape in a live preview, and publish it to a real URL.

What a bespoke joinery business needs from its software

Every commission starts the same way: a phone call or Instagram message about alcove units, a wardrobe in a sloped loft or a kitchen, followed by a survey, measurements, a drawing and a quote. Weeks pass between first contact and the first cut, and the details scatter across sketchbooks, cutting-list spreadsheets, supplier price lists and a diary of site visits. Quoting is the slowest part, because each one gets rebuilt from scratch. What helps is a single job file that holds the survey notes, the drawing the client signed, the timber ordered, the hours spent and the install date agreed with the builder.

Enquiries that capture dimensions, photos and budget before you drive out
Quotes assembled from saved components and current material rates
Written sign-off on drawings and finishes before timber is ordered
Staged payments: materials deposit, interim, balance on install
Workshop build time and site installs on one calendar
Offcut and sheet stock you can check before buying more

What you can build for carpentry workshops

A portfolio site that shows your lead time

Group finished work by type, such as kitchens, fitted wardrobes, freestanding pieces and restoration, and name the timber and finish on each. Explain your process in five plain steps and put the current lead time near the top, so people who contact you are ready to wait. The enquiry form saves every message with room measurements and photos attached.

Build a website for my carpentry workshop with a portfolio grouped by kitchens, wardrobes, furniture and restoration, each project showing the wood and finish. Add a process page, a lead time banner I can edit, and an enquiry form that takes room dimensions and photo uploads.

A quote builder made from your own components

Save the units you price again and again: a metre of shelving, a standard carcass, a door, a spray finish per square metre, a fitting day. Each quote is built from those lines, can show oak and painted MDF side by side, carries the drawing as an attachment and expires after a set number of days because timber prices move.

Make a quote builder for bespoke joinery. I want a library of components with material, labour hours and price, quotes built from those lines with options like oak versus painted MDF, an attached drawing, a 30-day expiry and a PDF for the client.

A client portal for drawings and sign-off

Each client signs in to see the latest drawing, the quote, the finish samples they chose and progress photos from the bench. A sign-off button records who approved which version and when, which ends arguments about depth or colour after the piece is built. Install date and site preparation notes sit on the same page.

Build a client portal for my joinery workshop where each client sees their drawings, quote and chosen finishes, approves a drawing version with a sign-off button, and sees progress photos and the install date with preparation notes.

An enquiry tracker that knows who sent the work

Move each enquiry from first contact to survey booked, quoted, won or lost, and record the reason when you lose one. Tag every lead with its source, especially the builders, architects and interior designers who pass jobs to you, so you can see which trade partners bring your best commissions.

Create a CRM for a carpentry workshop with stages enquiry, survey booked, quoted, won and lost, a lost reason, a referral source including named builders and designers, and a list of past clients with what we built for them.

A workshop and install planner

Put bench time, spray booth slots and site installs on one calendar so two jobs never need the booth on the same day. Plan each install backwards from the drying time of the finish, and keep other trades' dates on the job so you are not fitting a kitchen before the plasterer has finished.

Build a planner for my workshop showing build days per job, spray booth bookings and install dates, with a drying-time gap after finishing and a field for when the builder or decorator is on site.

Stock records for boards, hardwood and offcuts

List sheet materials and hardwood by species, thickness and size, hardware such as hinges and runners with reorder points, and usable offcuts by dimension. Before ordering a new oak board for a small shelf, you check the offcut list from your phone at the rack.

Make an inventory app for a joinery workshop: sheet goods and hardwood by species, thickness and size, hinges and runners with reorder levels, and an offcut list I can search by length and width from my phone.

Your carpentry workshop website and quotes on day one

Start with the two things that cost you the most time. First, the website and enquiry form, because a form that asks for the alcove width, ceiling height and a few photos lets you price roughly before you visit. Second, the component library behind your quotes. Enter your ten most common units with material and hours, and the next quote takes minutes. The portal, planner and stock list can follow once those are running.

Five to ten portfolio projects with real photos
Your current lead time
Ten saved quote components with rates
Deposit terms written once and reused

From cutting lists and sketchbooks to one job file

Most workshops already have the information, it just lives in too many places. Export your spreadsheet of past jobs and import it, then attach survey notes, drawings and photos to each project as you go. When a client rings two years later about matching a bookcase, the timber, finish and dimensions are in the same record as the original quote.

Questions

Can clients send room measurements and photos through my website?

Yes. Ask for an enquiry form with fields for dimensions and a photo upload. Every submission is saved with its files, so you can look at the space before deciding whether to book a survey.

Can I take a materials deposit before ordering timber?

You can set up staged invoices for deposit, interim and final balance, and track what has been paid. Taking card payments online means connecting a payment provider with your own account, which Mythex can wire into the app.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You describe what you want in plain language and Mythex writes the app and shows it in a live preview. You change it by chatting, and a code editor is there if you ever want to look underneath.

Is it free to try?

Yes. The Free plan needs no credit card and gives you daily credits, enough to build and publish a first version. Pro is $25/month and adds code editing, export, GitHub and a custom domain.

Can my fitters use it on their phones on site?

Yes. The published app works in any phone browser. On Pro you can also turn it into Android and iPhone apps that open your published app.
