Quote in square footage, track materials, manage installs, and bill cleanly. Bit & Grain handles every flooring sub-trade.
Evan installs flooring across the Charlotte metro. Here is how a whole-home flooring renovation with three different flooring types moves through Bit & Grain from the first site walk to final invoice.
Evan measures the house room by room: 380 sq ft of engineered hardwood for the main living area, 210 sq ft of 12x24 tile for both bathrooms, and 220 sq ft of carpet for the bonus room. He builds the estimate in Bit & Grain on his tablet with each room as a line item, material cost, underlayment, and labor calculated separately. The homeowner gets one clean quote and approves with a 30% deposit via Stripe that evening.
Evan orders the hardwood from his mill rep and the tile from the distributor. He notes lead times in Bit & Grain so he knows when to schedule each room. When the hardwood invoice arrives, he snaps it in Grain AI chat and the board-foot cost assigns to the main living area line item automatically.
When Evan pulls up the old carpet in the bonus room, he finds a soft-spot subfloor over a 4x8 section. He creates a change order in Bit & Grain: 4x8 plywood, construction adhesive, screws, and one hour of extra labor. He sends it to the homeowner via the client portal. The homeowner approves it from their phone before Evan finishes the repair. The change order is locked in before the carpet goes down.
All three rooms are complete. Evan marks the job done in Bit & Grain and sends the final invoice: original estimate plus the subfloor repair change order. The homeowner pays the balance via Stripe during the walkthrough. Total admin time for a three-week renovation across three flooring types: about an hour spread over the whole project.
