Why Home Builders Love MaterialsPro

One of the most important activities for any building contractor is the successful completion of a building project. And for good reasons, “you earned your pay!”

The sad reality is this is hardly the case for a lot of home builders. Due largely to no fault of their own, some building contractors, having put in all the work to bid and deliver a project, ended up barely reaching the point of completion. Some others are not able to mobilise to the next project site on schedule because of delays experienced in the current ones. To be candid, these all have consequences of - lost revenue, project (duration) extension, missed opportunity for new project kick off, inability to bid for a new project, not to talk of cost overrun and the intrigues of budget defense, etc.

In our engagement with home builders, a common thread for the gap between what they desired and the actual outcomes they see for the projects that didn't go so well has to do with the handling or management of building materials. Although a very important activity, sourcing of building materials can be exhausting and time consuming. It's an industry on its own. With 60% of an entire project cost going to building materials, maximum efficiency in materials handling can not be overemphasized.

This is why we established MaterialsPro. From inception, our goals have always been clear; to provide better, faster and cheaper ways for home builders to source essential bulk building materials to project sites.

In this article, we explore some of the reasons home builders love to use MaterialsPro.

You’ll agree that contacting multiple suppliers for your building materials can be stressful and expensive. In most cases, it takes a lot of effort, time, and coordination and you might not even get the right materials to the project sites. With MaterialsPro, home builders have access to: online product ordering, online purchase order, online invoicing, multiple product prices, manage internal workflows and secured payment options.

Timely Delivery

It is sometimes difficult to determine the quality and quantity of unbranded building materials such as granites. This is why our deliveries go through rigorous vetting and continuous monitoring processes. We ensure accuracy in deliveries in the right quantity and specifications. At MaterialsPro, What you order is What you Get!.

Trade Credit

We provide trade credit to deserving home builders who have met our credit requirements. All of these to help builders never run out of essential building materials when it matters.
