Crews in KwaZulu-Natal need the job, the scope and the sign-off on a phone while they are on site, not back at the office. WinkScope puts estimating, invoicing, scheduling, work orders and time tracking in one place for general contractors, remodellers, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, flooring, painting and landscaping firms working in KwaZulu-Natal.
Work in KwaZulu-Natal is driven by residential alterations, solar and backup power installs and security and boundary work. Licensing runs through NHBRC registration for home builders and CIDB grading for public work, and approvals go through municipal building plan approval under SANS 10400. WinkScope does not file permits or licences for you, but it keeps the scope, revisions, approvals and photo record that those conversations depend on in one job file.
Turn an accepted estimate into an invoice, take card payment through Stripe, bill deposits, milestones or progress claims, and raise change orders that carry their own approval and their own billing. Invoices, payments and change orders all post back to the project, so the financial picture for a KwaZulu-Natal job is one screen, not three spreadsheets.
Field crews use the phone apps for job details, checklists, photos, GPS-stamped time entries and client signatures. Subcontractors get work orders with scope and checklists; clients get a portal showing approvals, documents and progress. Nothing has to be re-typed when the crew gets back from a KwaZulu-Natal job.
Starter $29.99/mo, Pro $79.99/mo, Agency $199/mo and Enterprise $799/mo, each with a 15-day free trial and no card required to start. Plans are billed in USD worldwide, and you can invoice your own clients in your local currency.
Quotes are issued in ZAR with VAT handled on the document and measurements in metres and square metres. Your price book holds what you actually pay at Builders Warehouse, Cashbuild, Leroy Merlin SA and Chamberlain, and live vendor search checks current pricing before a number goes out. Markup, margin and section totals are editable, so the client sees the presentation you want and you keep the maths behind it.
Summer rainfall inland, winter rainfall in the Cape, and load-shedding that shapes site power planning decides when exterior work actually happens across the state. The WinkScope schedule shows a live weather overlay on the calendar and Gantt, so a washed-out day is moved once and every dependent task, crew and client reminder moves with it.
