Nothing slips through

What BuildScope checks on every waterproofer job.

Industry-specific inclusions, prompted before you send the scope, not discovered after you win it.

Prep
  • Surface prep
  • Prime substrate
  • Bond breakers
Membrane
  • Apply membrane
  • Coat to falls
  • Flood test

The scope itself

What goes into a waterproofer scope of works.

Waterproofing scopes are too short. Vague coverage wording is what turns a membrane job into a liability.

Line items that belong on it

  • Prepare and clean substrate ready for membrane
  • Prime substrate to manufacturer requirements
  • Install bond breakers to junctions and movement joints
  • Apply membrane to nominated floor and wall areas
  • Coat to falls and complete flood test

What gets left off

  • Stated coverage areas and heights. To wet areas means nothing when a dispute starts.
  • Bond breakers and primer. Required by the system and often absorbed into the rate.
  • Falls and drainage checks. A perfect membrane over a bad fall still ponds.

Worth excluding in writing

  • Rectification of substrate falls beyond nominated allowance
  • Tiling and finishes over the membrane
  • Rectification of pre-existing water damage

Where BuildScope fits

You run the job. BuildScope does the paperwork in the middle.

Waterproofers know how to walk a job and price it. BuildScope takes the paperwork between the site meeting and the quote going out.

BuildScope does this You do this
  1. 01 Enquiry lands Client rings or emails. You book a time to look at the job.
  2. 02 Site meeting You walk the job, measure up and take your photos.
  3. 03 Brain dump Talk or type the job into BuildScope, on site or in the ute.
  4. 04 The questions BuildScope asks what a tired estimator forgets: access, protection, rubbish, patching.
  5. 05 Scope of Works A full scope, trade by trade, preliminaries first, PC and PS kept separate.
  6. 06 Price and export Check quantities and pricing, apply your margin and GST, export the client-ready PDF.
  7. 07 Send and sign You send the PDF. The acceptance page is already in there for the client to sign.
  8. 08 Job runs Book the trades and get moving. The scope is your checklist and your variation defence.

BuildScope covers steps 03 to 06. You do the trade work, it does the paperwork.

Waterproofers already running accounting software? No worries.

Build the scope in BuildScope the way you always do, then move the job into your accounting or job management software as a draft, with the PDF attached. Nothing reaches your client until you send it.

How it works

Three steps from site visit to client-ready scope.

01

Describe the job

Check the substrate and the falls before you price anything, and note the exact areas and heights to be covered.

02

Answer the questions that matter

BuildScope asks the waterproofing questions: floor and wall areas, membrane height in showers, substrate type, falls and penetrations.

03

Review and send

Check that every area and height is stated in writing, then export.

FAQ

Questions waterproofers ask before signing up.

Is BuildScope built for waterproofers?
Yes. BuildScope is built around real waterproofer scopes of works, with waterproofers-specific line items, inclusions and wording. It is not a generic template you have to bend to fit.
Can BuildScope help waterproofers avoid missed items?
That is the point. It prompts for the things waterproofers commonly leave off a quote, like surface prep and prime substrate, so fewer items slip through before you send the scope.
What should a waterproofing scope of works include?
Preparation and membrane as separate sections, with the coverage stated precisely. Substrate preparation, priming and bond breakers, then the membrane with the floor area and the wall heights written out area by area, then coating to falls and the flood test. Precise coverage wording is the entire value of the document if anything ever goes wrong.
Why does waterproofing coverage need to be written so precisely?
Because it is the item most likely to be inspected and most likely to be argued about, and because it is invisible once the tiles go on. A line saying waterproof wet areas is unprovable later. A line stating the floor area and the wall height in the shower and elsewhere describes exactly what was paid for and exactly what was done.
Can I edit the scope after the AI builds it?
Always. Every line item, quantity, rate and section is editable. Reorder, add, remove or reword anything before you export.
Does BuildScope work from voice notes and photos?
Yes. Talk through the waterproofer job, or drop in site notes and a PDF, and BuildScope turns it into a structured Scope of Works you review and tidy.
How does the free trial work?
7 days free with 10 scopes on us, no credit card. Build and export them however you like. After that it is $99 per user a month, everything included.
Does BuildScope work with the software I already use?
Yes. Connect it once from your account settings and any saved scope can be pushed across as a draft, carrying your line items, section headings and exclusions, with the BuildScope PDF attached. BuildScope never sends it to your client and never raises an invoice: that stays your call.
