The Second Job

The fieldwork ends. That's when the money gets lost.

A GC asks for a permit while you're on another job. It's buried in an email.

A change gets approved verbally. You did the extra work, and never got paid for it.

Sunday night, you're finally catching up on the week you already worked.

We can't make an inspector pass you.

But we can make sure you're not getting caught by the same thing twice.

Too many places. One business.

The work is getting done. The record is falling behind.

Without TradeFlo

Permits buried in folders and emails
Blueprints scattered across inboxes
Photos sitting in camera rolls

Built Different

Other tools were built for other trades.

Field-service apps, HVAC/plumbing suites, and GC software are all strong products; none were built around permits, inspections, and change orders for commercial electrical.

Generic Field-Service Apps

Residential service tools

  • No permit or blueprint tracking
  • Generic checklists, not code-specific
  • No commercial change-order workflow

HVAC & Plumbing Platforms

Trade-specific suites

  • Built for HVAC/plumbing, not electrical
  • Heavy, expensive, long onboarding
  • No panel schedules or NEC tools

General Contractor Software

Project management for GCs

  • Built for GCs, not subcontractors
  • No field capture for electricians
  • No code-specific inspections

TradeFlo

Built for commercial electrical
Built for commercial electrical, not retrofitted from another trade
Permit & blueprint tracking in every Project Record
NEC code-specific inspection checklists by stage
Get paid for every change order, not just the ones you remember
QR deposit collection, get paid before you leave
Phone for the field, web for the office, one record

Built by a family that knows both sides of the business.

My father spent 20+ years managing commercial electrical projects. My mother ran the office that kept them moving.

We built TradeFlo to bring those two sides together.

“If you can solve the change order and approval mess, I'm in. I've got 12 guys and we're doing 3–4 commercial jobs at a time. Anything that gets me out of the paperwork would be huge.”
