Bricklaying Contractor Software: Brick-Count Quotes, Gang Schedules and a Website

With Mythex, a bricklaying contractor can build a quote tool that works out bricks, mortar and wastage from the wall's length, height and bond, a gang schedule that holds days for frost and rain, and a website that shows the pointing up close. You describe the jobs you take on, check each screen in a live preview, and publish it to a public link.

What a bricklaying business actually has to keep straight

A small gang of two bricklayers and a labourer can be on a garden wall on Monday and a house extension on Wednesday. Every job needs bricks counted and ordered from the merchant, a delivery date that lands before the gang does, and on chimneys a scaffold booked for the same week. Frost and heavy rain stop mortar work, so dates shift often. Older houses need a matching brick, which can take weeks to source, and when the same customer wants a repair years later nobody remembers which brick went in. Builders who send regular extension work expect monthly accounts rather than one invoice per wall.

• Brick and mortar quantities that come out the same on every quote
• Merchant deliveries and scaffold dates confirmed before a start
• Frost and rain holds that move the gang without losing the week
• The exact brick and mortar mix recorded on each job
• Builder accounts billed monthly, homeowners billed per job

What you can build for bricklaying contractors

Quotes that count the bricks for you

Enter the wall length and height, pick the brick size and bond, and the quote works out the brick count, mortar bags and a wastage allowance. Foundations, piers and copings sit on their own lines, and sourcing time for a matched brick is written down so the customer knows why the start date is later.

Build a quote app for my bricklaying business. For each wall I enter length, height, brick size and bond (stretcher, Flemish or English), and it calculates the number of bricks, bags of mortar and 5% wastage. Add separate lines for foundations, piers and copings, and a note field for brick matching lead time.

A gang schedule that expects the weather

Each gang has a site, a labourer and a start day tied to a confirmed delivery. Mark a frost or rain day and the job slides; a small repointing job held in reserve fills a morning that clears. Scaffold dates for chimney work sit next to the brickwork days so the two never miss each other.

Make a scheduling app for my bricklaying gangs. Each gang has two bricklayers and a labourer assigned to one site per day. A job cannot start until I mark the brick delivery as confirmed, chimney jobs show the scaffold date, and I can mark a day as rained off or frost so the job moves to the next free day.

A website that lets the joints do the talking

Builders and experienced homeowners judge you by close-ups of pointing and how new work blends with old. Split the gallery by garden walls, extensions, repointing and chimneys, explain how brick matching works on older houses, list the areas you cover and add an enquiry form that asks for wall size and photos.

Create a website for my bricklaying company with galleries for garden walls, extensions, repointing and chimney rebuilds, a page about matching bricks on older houses, the towns we cover with typical lead times, and an enquiry form that asks for wall length, height and photo uploads.

Job records that remember the brick

Track each enquiry from first call to survey, quoted, booked and finished. Every job keeps the brick name, supplier and mortar colour, plus site notes on access, foundations and the neighbours. Builders who send repeat work are kept as trade accounts so you can see how much they have sent you this year.

Build a CRM for my bricklaying business. Customers and builders are separate types. Each job moves through enquiry, survey, quoted, booked and completed, and stores site address, brick name, brick supplier, mortar colour and access notes. Show total work per builder this year.

Invoices on the basis you agreed

Price labour per thousand bricks, per day or per square metre of repointing, and print the basis on every invoice so nobody argues later. Materials appear with merchant costs, extensions get stage payments, and builder accounts roll up into one monthly bill.

Create an invoicing app for my bricklaying work. Line items can be priced per thousand bricks, per day or per square metre. Materials are listed separately. Extensions can have stage payments, and builders get one monthly invoice covering all their jobs.

Bricks laid per gang, and days lost to weather

Log bricks laid per day and the dashboard shows each gang's weekly average, weather days lost this season, material costs against what you quoted, and how much work came from builders versus direct customers. Those numbers make the next quote less of a guess.

Make a dashboard for my bricklaying business showing bricks laid per gang per day as a weekly average, days lost to rain and frost by month, material cost against quoted cost per job, and revenue split between builders and homeowners.

From the back of a delivery note to one job list

Most bricklayers price on a calculator and keep the merchant order in a text thread. Start by moving the quote into the app, because that is where errors cost the most: an under-order means a second delivery charge and sometimes bricks from a different batch that do not match. Once quotes are in, the job record carries the quantities into the order, the schedule and the invoice without retyping. Add the gang schedule next, then the dashboard once you have a few weeks of bricks-laid figures to look at.

• Week one: quote tool with your usual brick sizes and bonds
• Week two: jobs and builder accounts
• Then: gang schedule, invoices and productivity numbers

Repointing and garden walls as landing pages

Crumbling mortar is visible from the street, which makes repointing an easy job to advertise. A landing page with a before-and-after from a similar house, and a form that asks for photos of the wall, lets you give a rough price from the office. Garden walls do well in spring and early summer. A separate page aimed at builders explains how you work on extensions, what you need from them and how you invoice.
