For Contractors

Which side
are you on?

BidRoute works for contractors on both ends of a job. Pick your path below.

Why BidRoute

Built for the contractor who just needs work.

We didn't build this for the guy with a $500/month lead platform budget and a full crew. We built it for the one who's good at what they do and needs a fair shot at proving it.

Zero risk to bid
Other platforms charge you the moment a homeowner shows interest — whether you win or not. On BidRoute, you never pay unless you complete the job and get paid. Bid ten jobs, win three, pay for three. That's it.
You control your price
Some platforms book jobs at a rate they set. Not here. You submit your own bid at your own price. Win jobs on the strength of your quote and your reputation.
No more cold leads
Every lead on BidRoute is active — a real project, right now. No more calling numbers that go to voicemail. No more chasing homeowners who already hired someone. If a job is in your queue, the homeowner is expecting to hear from you.
Bid smarter. Drive less.
Homeowners submit photos, scope details, and measurements with every posting. For jobs that need a site visit, you request one through the platform — confirmed appointment, no cold coordination. You're not wasting a drive on a maybe.
A platform that grows with you
Every completed job builds your BidRoute profile. Reviews stack. Your reputation compounds. The longer you're on the platform, the stronger your position against newer contractors. Early movers win.

Honest fit check

Who this is built for.

We'll be straight with you. BidRoute works best for a specific kind of contractor.

✓
You're early in your business and can't afford to gamble on pay-per-lead platforms that charge you whether you win or not.
✓
You do quality work and want to compete on merit — not on who has the biggest advertising budget.
✓
You have slow weeks you'd like to fill without paying upfront for the privilege of trying.
✓
You're licensed and insured and want to be on a platform where that actually matters to homeowners.
✓
You respond quickly. Homeowners expect bids within 24 hours. Fast responders win more work on BidRoute.
Probably not the right fit if —
—You're fully booked and not looking for new work right now.
—You take days to respond to new opportunities.
—You're not licensed or insured. We verify both.
For General Contractors

Stop chasing subs through group pages.

You've got active projects and you need qualified subcontractors — fast. Post your job on BidRoute and let licensed, vetted subs come to you with competitive bids. Same platform, other side of the table.

How it works

Post a job in five minutes.

01
Post your subcontractor job
Describe the scope, trade, location, timeline, and any plans or specs. Upload photos or documents. Set your availability for site visits if needed. Free to post — always.
02
BidRoute routes it
Your job is personally reviewed and sent to a curated group of vetted, licensed subs in that trade and geography. You don't chase anyone. They come to you.
03
Review bids side by side
Bids land in your portal — price, timeline, contractor ratings, and availability all in one place. Compare without making a single call.
04
Hire whoever you want
Select the sub that fits your project. The winning sub pays a small platform fee on completion. You pay nothing. No subscription, no listing fee, no cost to you.
Why it works for GCs

One platform. Both sides.

Free to post — every time
Posting a subcontractor job is always free. The platform fee is collected from the winning sub after they complete the job and get paid by you. You never pay to find labor.
Everything archived in one place
Every job, every bid, every message lives in your portal. No more digging through text threads to find what a sub quoted you three weeks ago. Your bid history is always there when you need it.
Vetted subs only
Every sub on BidRoute has had their license and general liability insurance verified before they can bid on a single job. You're choosing from a curated network of licensed professionals.
Bid on jobs too
Licensed contractors get access to both sides of the platform. Post subcontractor jobs when you need labor. Bid on homeowner jobs when you want work. One login, both directions.
