Sound familiar?

I'm doing post-and-picket math on the back of a receipt.

I under-order concrete and pickets and lose a half-day.

Walking the property line with a wheel takes forever.

Gate pricing is different every time and I forget the hardware.

Customers want to pay online and I'm still mailing invoices.

How MyTradeCrate fixes it

The whole fencing job — from the first quote to the paid receipt — in one mobile app built for the way you actually work.

Material takeoff that orders right the first time

Enter the run length and style and the fence calculator returns posts, pickets, rails, concrete bags, and labor hours — so the material order matches the job.

Quote by the linear foot, every material

Wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminum, and iron each have their own per-linear-foot rate, with gate and removal line items built in.

Measure the property line from a map

Trace the perimeter on a satellite map and the linear footage drops straight onto the estimate — no walking the line with a wheel.

Approve, schedule, and get paid

Text the branded estimate with a one-tap Accept, auto-book the install, and send a Stripe pay link when it's done.

Built-in tools

Fencing tools & calculators

Every trade ships with the math its operators actually use — not a generic line-item editor. Here's what comes with fencing.

Linear-foot fence calculator

Run length + style → posts, panels, concrete bags, and labor hours.

Gate pricing helper

Single / double / drive-through gates with hardware tiers.

Satellite property-line measure

Trace the perimeter on a satellite map to auto-fill linear feet.

Fencing software FAQ

Does it do a fence material takeoff?

Yes. Enter the run length, post spacing, and style and the calculator returns posts, pickets, rails, concrete bags, and labor hours so your material order matches the job.

Can I price by the linear foot for different fence materials?

Yes. Wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminum, and iron each carry their own per-linear-foot rate, and gates, removal, and staining are separate line items.

Can I measure the property line without a wheel?

Yes. Trace the perimeter on a satellite map and the linear footage drops onto the estimate automatically.

Can I take a deposit and collect the balance online?

Yes. Set a deposit threshold, then send Stripe pay links for the deposit and the final balance so customers pay by card online.

Add-ons

Every plan covers the core money path on its own. Bolt on only the capacity or modules you need — every add-on is monthly and drops cleanly.

Extra trades

$4.00 / mo per trade

First 2 trades are included on every plan — add more as your business grows.

Learn more

Each trade you add unlocks its full kit — service catalog, custom job fields, the trade-specific calculator (mulch yardage for landscaping, chemical mix for pressure washing, paint coverage for painting, squares for roofing, etc.), and the matching estimate form. Add or drop trades on a monthly cycle: a trade you add is yours through the current billing period, and a trade you cancel keeps working until the period ends so nothing breaks mid-job.

Extra user seats

$5 / seat / mo

Basic includes 1 seat, Plus includes 2. Add as many extra seats as your crew needs.

Learn more

Each seat is a full team member with their own login — they get role-scoped access to customers, jobs, estimates, invoices, and the calendar. Owners and admins can invite, remove, or downgrade members at any time from the Team page. Seats are billed at a flat per-seat price on both plans (no per-user gotcha that doubles your bill when you grow).

Email packs

$10 / mo per pack

Stack +5,000 platform emails per pack — Plus tier.

Learn more

Plus already includes 1,500 emails per month. If you outgrow that, stack as many email packs as you need — each pack adds its full email allowance on top of the base. Texting customers is always free: the “Copy & send as text” button sends from your own phone, so it never counts against any allowance.

Premium document templates

$5 / mo

Plus tier. Unlock per-field visibility on estimate and invoice PDFs.

Learn more

Toggle individual fields on or off for every estimate and invoice — "Prepared by", payment terms, project scope, materials breakdown, internal notes, customer signature line, and a dozen more. Useful when you want one trade's estimates to read formally and another trade's to fit on a single sticky-note. Settings → Document fields.

Inventory module

$5 / mo

Track chemicals, parts, consumables, and supplies on any tier. Currently free during preview.

Learn more

Set reorder points, log purchases and usage, scan SKUs with the camera, run monthly cycle counts on a schedule, and get a low-stock notification before you run out mid-job. Job completion auto-deducts the chemicals used so your stock numbers stay honest. Pickable as an add-on at signup — currently rolled out to every org for free while we finish billing wiring.

Photo storage

1–2 GB included, then $0.25 / GB / mo

Plan-based photo storage (Basic 1 GB · Plus 2 GB) — or switch to your own Google Drive for free.

Learn more

Each plan includes platform-hosted photo storage: Basic 1 GB, Plus 2 GB. Need more? Turn on additional storage in Settings → Storage and we bill $0.25 per GB per month, rounded up to the nearest whole GB. Uploads pause at your included limit until you enable overage, upgrade, or free up space, so you're never surprised. Prefer to keep everything in-house? Connect your Google Drive and we'll upload every job photo straight into your own folder — your storage, your retention, no overage from us.

Prices in USD. Customer-paid Stripe processing fees are passed through at standard Stripe rates and are not included above.
