The Top Digital Forms for Residential Contractors

Streamline collaboration and communication across cross-functional teams with these digital contractor forms

Construction is an ever-growing industry that continues to make significant strides in evolving traditional business processes. Whether you’re in a niche market within construction or function as a large-scale corporation, all business entities can benefit from digitization. 

Digital forms offer new opportunities to streamline residential construction collaboration, that traditional paper forms simply cannot. With GoFormz, your digital forms can look exactly like your existing paper documents, and can be easily configured in our powerful drag-and-drop form builder – making it easier than ever to digitize existing documentation and onboard new users. Leveraging digital versions of your existing documents on phones and tablets allows contractors to rapidly complete forms from the field, even while offline. 

GoFormz offers ready-to-use Starter Templates or you can digitize your existing construction work forms, maintain branding, and provide a familiar interface for your users. For residential contractors, this can be extremely beneficial, simplifying your data collection process and enhancing your internal and client-facing professionalism.

Contractor Work Order Template

Make your residential work orders more powerful by adding visual context with Image and Sketch fields to your digital work order forms. By leveraging these fields, your back office team now has visibility to critical data without having to step foot on a job site – elevating your cross-functional team’s collaboration and communication. You can even use Image fields in conjunction with Sketch fields to point out critical hazards, potential schedule delays, and more – resulting in more thorough documentation and greater client satisfaction. 

To further strengthen your work order templates, you can set up your digital work orders to instantly email copies to appropriate personnel, like your project engineers, clients, or supervisors by leveraging Automated Workflows. This feature saves you time and ensures that your business’ workflows are thorough and consistent, while also eliminating redundancies.

Contractor Estimate Template

Cost estimates are a crucial component of construction projects – it’s imperative that all calculations are correct prior to the start of construction. Fortunately, GoFormz offers a powerful Calculation Builder that allows users to include Automatic Calculations within their digital forms. This feature allows for the rapid completion of line items and can be organized within Table fields to help eliminate human error while simplifying the cost estimation process. 

By leveraging a Data Source, this functionality can be enhanced to pull critical numbers from a Database and then calculated by using Automated Calculations – expediting the cost estimation process and allowing your operation more time to churn out more cost estimates in your day-to-day operations.

Site Safety Checklists 

Construction safety is arguably the utmost important aspect of every construction project. By digitizing your site safety checklists, you can ensure your team is safe on every job site. Incorporate Checklist Group form fields in conjunction with Required fields to enforce critical data capture on every form template. This functionality significantly enhances form completeness and allows form creators access to critical safety information in real-time. 

Contractor Agreement

Capturing authorizations is critical, regardless of your industry. Digitize your agreements and leverage our electronic signature fields to gain access to authorizations in real-time. This feature greatly simplifies the process flow of capturing critical information, regardless of your location. Simply drag-and-drop the Signature field onto your contractor agreement form and once it’s completed, send digital copies of the completed form to colleagues, supervisors, and more. 

To further enhance this document, leverage our powerful API and collection of integrations to send pre-filled contractor agreements with client information to streamline the form completion process. You can even utilize our form sharing feature, Public Forms, and share forms to users outside of your organization to enhance collaboration.
