SiteTower

The Design-to-Quote Pipeline

In typical software, design, estimating, and proposal writing are disconnected steps. SiteTower merges them into a single fluid workflow.

01

Draw Over Satellite Maps

Search a property address and outline borders, fences, decking, arrays, or vegetation right over a 3D Google Maps perspective. Measurements are calculated live as you drag.

02

Instant Bill of Materials

The BOM engine takes your layout and works out the components you actually have to buy: post counts from spacing, concrete volume, cable runs, battery stacks. Your rates, applied the same way every time.

Quantities EngineSame Formula Every Time
03

Proposals & E-Signatures

Generate a polished digital proposal in seconds using your pre-saved margins and rates. Clients read it, switch between the options you offered, watch the ZAR total update, and sign β€” on their phone.

Stop Scope Creep in Its Tracks

The biggest leak in exterior construction profitability is undocumented changes. The client requests a slight expansion on-site, the crew executes it, but the office never bills for it.

On-Site Change Orders

Log changes on your phone, calculate price adjustments instantly, and have the client sign on-screen before the crew lifts a shovel.

Quoted vs. Actual Margin Reporting

Compare what you estimated against actual crew labor rates and material costs. Know exactly which jobs made a profit and which ones leaked cash.

South Africa First

No FX Rates. No Imported Assumptions.

Most construction tools are designed in the US or Europe, then translated. SiteTower is built around how South African contractors actually quote, draw, and get signed off.

πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦

Priced and Quoted in Rand

Your subscription and every quote you send are in ZAR, ex-VAT by convention, with VAT shown the way your clients expect. No exchange-rate surprises on your card statement.

πŸ“

SA Materials & Standards

The BOM engine works in local stock sizes and SA trade practice β€” and flags the compliance rules that bite, like SANS 10134 pool barriers and fence height limits.

πŸ“œ

Council & Application Packs

Export a drawing set your draughtsperson can submit, plus pre-filled solar application packs with panel, inverter, and connection detail already on the page.

Your client list is commercially sensitive. Company data is isolated per account and encrypted, and we handle it in line with POPIA.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is SiteTower built for?

SiteTower is purpose-built for South African exterior contractors β€” pool builders, landscapers, solar installers, security fencing specialists, pond contractors, and sports/play area builders. If you design on site and quote in ZAR, it's built for you.

Do I need design experience to use the 3D canvas?

No. The canvas runs over real satellite imagery and uses preset footprints for courts, pools, decks, and more. You trace what's already there, drop a preset, and the BOM engine does the math.

How does the Bill of Materials work?

The BOM engine reads your drawing β€” perimeter lengths, areas, volumes β€” and applies SA trade formulas to work out component quantities: concrete, decking boards, fencing posts, solar panels, pumps. You review and adjust before it reaches the quote, but you are editing a takeoff rather than building one.

How accurate are measurements taken off the satellite view?

Scale comes from Google Maps imagery. That's accurate enough to lay a job out and quote it, but it isn't a surveyed site plan and we won't pretend otherwise. Where a dimension has to be exact, measure one edge on site and calibrate the drawing against it β€” the rest of the plan rescales to match. Quote off the drawing; set out off your tape.

Can clients pay their deposit through SiteTower?

Not yet β€” and we'd rather say so than surprise you. Clients review, choose their options, and sign in SiteTower; you invoice and collect the deposit the way you do today. Online card and EFT collection is on the roadmap, and founding customers get a direct say in when it lands.

Does it sync with Xero, Sage, or Zoho?

Not at launch. What you get instead is one place where every accepted quote, change order, and job total already lives β€” so your bookkeeper is reading a single record rather than reconstructing it from WhatsApp and paper. Direct accounting integrations come once the design-to-quote core is right.

What does the Founding Customer Program include?

Founding customers get full Pro access at R399/mo (ex-VAT) locked for life β€” that's 60% off the standard R999/mo. It includes free white-glove onboarding (half-day session, R2,500 value), custom branding setup, and priority feature requests. We're limiting it to 10 SA contractors.
