New homeowners have a list. Make sure your name is at the top.
The moment someone buys a property in Ireland, the renovation list starts. New kitchens, extensions, attic conversions — general contractors are in demand from day one. Home1 connects you with buyers who've just moved in and are actively looking for a reliable contractor.
Sound familiar?
These are the three things general contractors tell us take up the most time — and deliver the least value.
Enquiries arriving before you can price the job
Homeowners want a quote fast, but every job needs a site visit first. Without a structured intake process, you're fielding unqualified calls instead of building a pipeline.
Juggling multiple live jobs with no shared view
When you have four jobs on the go, knowing what each site needs this week — materials ordered, subcontractors booked, client sign-offs pending — is a full-time admin task.
Getting paid on time, every time
Stage payments, retention, final invoices — construction billing is complex. Chasing payment by phone is time-consuming and uncomfortable. Professional invoicing changes the dynamic.
Your general contractor practice. Fully managed.
Everything you need to run a modern practice — built into one platform that takes minutes to set up.
Job Board
Move jobs through a visual pipeline from new enquiry to completed.
Invoicing
Send professional invoices directly from your dashboard. Track payment status without chasing spreadsheets.
Client CRM
Every client, every conversation, every job — searchable and organised.
Calendar
Schedule and confirm appointments with clients. Keep your week organised.
The job board feature is the one thing I wish I'd had years ago. I can see every job, every stage, and what needs to happen next. My team knows exactly where things stand without calling me.
Common questions from general contractors
Do I need to be a registered contractor (CIF member) to list?+
It's not a mandatory requirement to list, but we do verify that businesses have valid public liability insurance. CIF membership or equivalent credentials will improve your profile's trust score.
Can I manage subcontractors through the platform?+
Home1's team feature supports adding team members with defined roles. Subcontractors can be invited as limited-access team members to view job status without accessing your full account.
What size of jobs does Home1 attract?+
Everything from small repair work to full extensions and refurbishments. You define the job types and project sizes you want in your profile, and you'll only receive relevant enquiries.
How does the invoicing feature handle stage payments?+
You can issue separate invoices for each stage — deposit, interim, and final payment — and track which are paid, outstanding, or overdue from a single dashboard view.
