For 2–10 person residential crews · Built in Canada
ScopeSealed is the change-order system for small residential contractors. A client says “while you’re here, can you just…” — you describe the extra, price it with HST built in, and get their signature on the spot. About 60 seconds, right on your phone.
$40 CAD/month — first user included, +$10/month per extra user · Founding 50 lock that rate for life while subscribed · Plain-language forms, no lawyer-speak
Extras aren’t the problem — they’re good money when they’re priced and approved. The problem is how they happen: verbally, in a hallway, halfway through a job.
The client nods in the kitchen. Three weeks later it’s “I thought that was included.” There’s no record of what was agreed — because there isn’t one.
You ballpark it on the spot so the conversation stays friendly. Labour, materials, markup, HST — something always gets forgotten, and it’s never forgotten in your favour.
The invoice lands and the extras get disputed line by line. You discount to keep the peace and the referral — and the profit on the whole job walks out the door.
One habit, enforced by the paperwork: nothing extra starts until it’s described, priced, and signed.
Open the change order form on your phone and write down exactly what’s being added — and what isn’t. Plain words, thirty seconds.
The calculator adds labour, materials, and your markup, then applies HST. No mental math, no forgetting the tax, no apologizing for the number.
The client reads one clear line — “I approve this extra work for $X” — and signs before the work begins. Sealed. Then you build it.
Five working documents and the words to go with them — the paperwork backbone of a small residential crew, built for Canadian jobs.
The heart of the system. Extra work described, priced, schedule impact noted, and one clear approval line the client signs — name, signature, date — before anything starts.
Build quotes line by line — labour, materials, allowances, exclusions — so the original scope is nailed down tight enough that an “extra” is obvious when it appears.
Sets the job up properly from day one: what’s included, what’s not, how extras get approved, and how payments flow. Plain language both sides actually read.
Labour + materials + markup + HST, every time, in the same order — so you, your lead hand, or your apprentice all quote the same job the same way. Try a live version below.
Walk the finished job with the client and sign it off together — what was done, what was added along the way, and that it’s accepted. Clean ending, clean final invoice.
Word-for-word texts and talk tracks for the awkward moments: the free-extra ask, the mid-job add-on, the disputed invoice. Firm, friendly, and already written for you.
Move the numbers and watch a change order price itself — this is the same math the ScopeSealed calculator runs on every extra, with the finished document beside it.
Sample job: six pot lights and a dimmer, added mid-reno.
Illustrative sample — client and job details are an example, not a real job.
“I built ScopeSealed because I was tired of doing good work for free. Every builder I know has a story about the extra that ate the profit on a job — the one that was never written down, never priced right, and never really agreed to.
This is the system I wish I’d had from day one: simple forms, honest math, and one rule that fixes almost everything — nothing starts until it’s signed.”
One simple subscription: the app is $40 CAD a month with your first user included, and $10 a month for each additional user on your crew. The first 50 builders lock that rate in for life — it never goes up on you while you stay subscribed.
Solo operator — just you, everything included.
You plus two crew members ($40 + 2 × $10) — everyone pricing and sealing extras the same way.
A five-person crew ($40 + 4 × $10). One unsigned extra costs more than a year of this.

No — and it’s not pretending to be. ScopeSealed is an operational business system: plain-language forms that document what extra work was agreed, what it costs, and that the client approved it before the work started. It deliberately leaves legal machinery — indemnity clauses, lien language, complex liability terms — out entirely. The forms carry a clear notice that they are general business templates, not legal advice, and you should adapt them to your own business. If you ever land in a serious dispute, you’ll want your own professional advice regardless; what ScopeSealed does is make sure you walk in with the extra documented, priced, and signed.
Small residential contractors and renovators — roughly 2–10 person crews — who do good work and lose money on the paperwork side of extras. It’s built Canadian-first: HST is baked into the pricing math and the forms use plain Canadian business language. If you run a large commercial operation with a contracts department, you already have this handled.
The complete ScopeSealed app and system: the 60-second change order builder with on-the-spot client sign-off, the detailed quote worksheet, pre-construction scope agreement, completion sign-off, the pricing calculator (labour + materials + markup + HST), and the client scripts pack. Your first user is included in the $40; each additional crew member is $10/month. As a Founding member, that rate is locked for life while you stay subscribed.
Because the first fifty builders will use this on real jobs and say what doesn’t work. Their feedback shapes the product before it opens wider. In exchange, they lock in the founding rate — $40/month for the app with the first user included, +$10/month per additional user — for life, for as long as they stay subscribed. When the standard rate rises, theirs doesn’t.
