Where Rory helps

The moments
the margin slips.

Not a feature list. These are the everyday moments on a building job where the money starts leaking, the change that lands mid-week, the quote that goes quiet, the extra you can't prove. And what Rory does the second they happen, because it's watching when you can't be.

A variation comes inTuesday · 4:12pm

The client emails a change halfway through the job.

It's worth $5,000. On a busy week it gets read, mentally noted, and never priced. That's margin walking out the door.

Rory flags the email as a variation against the right job, drafts a priced response in your tone, and queues it for your approval. You tap send. Nothing slips.

A subbie goes quietThursday · 7:48am

The sparky hasn't confirmed for Monday.

You only notice when you're standing on site with no one there. Now the whole day's behind and you're making calls from the ute.

Rory knows the sparky usually confirms within a day, so two days of silence stands out. It spots the gap and drafts the follow-up before it becomes a no-show. You approve the chase, Rory sends it.

A quote's due FridayWednesday · 9:30pm

You promised a number by end of week.

It's the third night running you've sat down to do it after the kids are asleep, and you're too cooked to start.

Rory pulls the scope from the thread, drafts the quote off your past pricing, and has it waiting for you to check. Ten minutes instead of two hours.

An RFQ lands for tenderFriday · 3:20pm

A big job's out to tender, and pricing it is a mountain.

Dozens of line items, each needing a real number. That means chasing supplier prices, walking the Bunnings aisle in your head, and digging through old quotes. Days of work, and you're guessing on half of it.

Rory builds the quote off real numbers, pulling live pricing from your suppliers and Bunnings, plus your own price lists, cost data, and past jobs. Every line is costed, not guessed. You review the total and submit.

End-of-month invoicingThe 30th · all day

A dozen jobs to invoice, and you'd rather be on the tools.

So it waits. Cash that should be in this week lands next month, and chasing the late ones is a job no one wants.

Rory drafts each invoice against the job, lines them up for your okay, then follows up the unpaid ones on a schedule. You get paid faster without the admin night.

A client chases an updateMonday · 6:02pm

"Hey, just checking where we're at?"

A fair question that takes a thoughtful reply you don't have the headspace for at the end of a long day. So it sits unread, and they wonder.

Rory knows where the job sits, drafts a clear update in your voice, and shows it to you first. Clients feel looked after, you didn't lift a finger.

A question from siteTuesday · 6:40am

The chippie's on the phone asking what grade the slab is.

The answer's buried in a 60-page spec, or split across three revisions of the drawings. So the pour waits while you drive back to the office or thumb through PDFs on your phone.

Rory reads every spec, drawing and contract on the job and answers in seconds, with the exact section and page behind it. You read it straight back. No digging, no second-guessing which revision is current.

A dispute over an extraSix weeks later

"I never approved that."

The change came in over email weeks ago and got the nod, but no one logged it against the job. Now it's invoice time, the client's pushing back, and you're digging through old threads trying to prove what was agreed.

Rory logged the change against the job when it happened: what was agreed, by who, and when. You pull up the record in seconds. The conversation ends, and you get paid for the work.

A job's ready to hand overThe last week

The build's done, but the job isn't closed.

Two variations still aren't invoiced, the waterproofing certificate never came back, and you're waiting on council. It's scattered across your inbox, and the last 5% of every job is where the money quietly leaks.

Rory keeps a live "what's outstanding to close this": who you're waiting on, the variations still unbilled with their dollar totals, and the certificates still missing. When it's all in, you get a clean "ready to close."

Different building business, different moments. In onboarding, Rory learns yours.
