Paving & Hardscape Contractor Software
Solutions for paving companies
PlanOps supports paving companies in managing their projects, from quote to final invoice.
Paving and hardscape work is seasonal and competitive. When the weather turns, quote requests for driveways, patios, walkways and retaining walls all land at once, and every day spent driving out to measure is a day not spent installing. Homeowners often shop three or four contractors, so the one who replies fast with a clear price has the edge.
Once the contract is signed, you still have to coordinate excavation, base material and paver deliveries, installation, joint sand and cleanup. PlanOps lets you measure remotely from satellite imagery, produce detailed quotes and track every job all the way to the final invoice.
Challenges paving contractors face
Too much driving to measure
Visiting every prospect to take measurements costs hours and fuel, especially when many of those quotes will never turn into jobs.
Quotes that take too long to build
Square footage, base depth, paver type, edging, cuts and steps: calculating all of it by hand slows your response and invites mistakes.
A tight, weather-dependent schedule
Rain, late deliveries and utility locates can push a job back, and the rest of the week has to move with it.
Showing the quality of your work
Without well-organized before and after photos, it's harder to prove your craftsmanship to new clients or settle a warranty question.

Frequently asked questions
Can I quote a paver driveway without visiting the site?
In many cases, yes. The remote measurement tool lets you outline the driveway or patio on satellite imagery and get the area. For steep grades or unusual soil conditions, a site visit is still a good idea before confirming the price.
Can the quote include base material and edging?
Yes. Add as many line items as you need: excavation, base gravel, pavers, edging, steps, joint sand and debris removal. The quote can be customized with your sections, options and terms, and the client can sign it electronically.
How do I handle rain delays?
Move the job on the calendar and the assigned crew sees the new date in the mobile app. You keep a clear view of the week to reshuffle other work.
Does PlanOps work for asphalt and retaining walls too?
Yes. Quotes, measurements, scheduling and invoicing work for all outdoor hardscape jobs, whether pavers, asphalt, retaining walls or steps.
