What the app prevents

Still finding out a job went sideways after it closed?

  • 01

    You finished the job, ran the numbers, and realized you barely broke even. Again. The average specialty trade sub nets 7.7% before taxes — one bad job wipes out months of work.

  • 02

    Change orders happened. Some got approved verbally, most didn't make it to the invoice. Small subs leave an average of 16% of change order revenue unbilled every year.

  • 03

    Your bookkeeper exports QuickBooks to Excel every Friday just to figure out job costs. 39% of specialty subs still run job costing in spreadsheets.

  • 04

    You're either paying for Procore features you'll never use, or you're on a platform built for homebuilders — not commercial subcontractors.

MarginLock gives you real-time job cost visibility before it's too late.
