Drywall & Steel Stud Contractors

Software that knows what a drywall company actually runs on

Crews across three sites, extras nobody wrote down, and a GC who wants the billing yesterday. SubTrade was built inside a working commercial drywall company, because nothing else fit.

Real crew. Real site. Shot on the job.

FRAMED BOARDED

From layout to boarding to billing, tracked in one place

The three leaks in every drywall company

Hours

Boarders on one site, tapers on another, framers starting a third. Paper timesheets show up Friday, half-filled, and job costing becomes a guess.

Extras

The site super says "just patch that while you're here." Nobody writes it up. That's free work, and over a year it adds up to a crew's wages.

Billing

Month end, and you're rebuilding percent-complete from memory and a few photos. The GC disputes it, payment slides 30 more days.

Built For The Work

Your scope, covered

Every tool below mapped to how a commercial drywall and steel stud contractor actually runs jobs.

GPS Time Tracking

Crews clock in from the site they're on. Hours land on the right job, framing or boarding or taping, without chasing timesheets.

Change Orders

Extra fire caulking, a moved demising wall, patch work the super asked for. Write it up on the spot, price it, send it before you leave site.

Crew Scheduling

Shift the taping crew when boarding runs long. Everyone sees where they're working tomorrow, on their phone tonight.

Progress Billing

Bill by floor, by unit, by phase. Percent-complete backed by daily logs and photos, so draws stop turning into arguments.

Daily Logs & Photos

GPS-stamped photos of what got boarded before it disappeared behind mud and paint. The record that wins disputes.

Drawings & Markups

Current wall types and details on every foreman's phone. No more building off last month's revision.

Why Drywall Contractors Trust It

Built inside a drywall company, not a software office

SubTrade comes out of Quality Gypsum Services, a commercial drywall and steel stud contractor in Calgary. Every feature was used on real QGS jobs, multi-unit residential, tenant improvements, commercial framing, before it shipped.

If a feature didn't survive a real jobsite, it didn't make the app.

Stop giving away extras
