About
Built for the work
nobody wrote down
Ask anyone who has run a construction company how much work they have performed and never billed. They will not give you a number. They will give you a story — a specific job, a specific verbal request, and a specific amount they ate because nobody could prove what happened.
What makes it maddening is that nobody involved did anything wrong. The customer really did ask. The crew really did build it. The foreman really did take photos. They just went into a text thread, and the office found out six weeks later, and by then the notice period had closed.
The work was done. The documentation is the only thing that was missing.
ExtraWork exists for that gap and nothing else. Capture it while somebody is still standing in front of it, turn it into a change order the customer will actually sign, and make sure it reaches an invoice.
The name
Say it out loud
Extra work is what the industry already calls it — on site, in the trailer, on the phone. We did not invent a word for a thing that already has one.
The plus sits between the words because that is literally the product: the work beyond the contract, added back to what you get paid for.
How we work
Four things we hold to
01
The money is the point
We are not trying to organise your business. We are trying to get you paid for work you already performed. If a feature does not move a dollar from unbilled to invoiced, it does not ship.
02
Thirty seconds or it does not exist
Every field interaction is measured against a foreman in the rain with one free hand. Software that is unusable at that moment is software that captures nothing.
03
No invented numbers
Our own calculator makes you set the assumptions, because we do not have a benchmark for your business and will not pretend otherwise. The same applies to anything else we tell you.
04
One job, done properly
There are good tools for scheduling, estimating and project management, and you probably already own them. We are not going to build worse versions to look bigger.
Bring us the job
that still annoys you
Every contractor has one. We will show you exactly where it would have been caught.
