Plan. Build. Get It Done.
Build Board is your home project command center. Organize ideas, get competitive bids from verified local pros, pay safely, and share your progress with your community — all in one place. Free to start.
Everything your project needs
From the first idea to the final payment — Build Board handles the whole thing.
Projects
Create unlimited home projects — kitchen remodel, new roof, bathroom tile, anything. Each project gets its own space with tasks, notes, documents, and a full activity timeline.
- Unlimited projects, no expiration
- Task lists and progress tracking
- Document and note storage
- Project activity timeline
Build Board
Your visual project board. Upload photos, pin inspiration, add cost line items, and build out your full budget — all in one place. See exactly where your money is going before you spend it.
- Photo uploads and inspiration pins
- Detailed cost line items and budgeting
- Before/after photo comparisons
- AI cost range estimates by project type
Get Bids
Describe your project, set your timeline and budget range, and let verified local pros come to you. Compare bids side by side and choose the right contractor — no cold calling, no chasing quotes.
- Post once, get multiple bids
- All pros are license-verified
- Side-by-side bid comparison
- No obligation to accept any bid
Messaging
Every conversation lives inside your project. Message any pro directly, share photos, ask follow-up questions, and keep a full record of everything that was said — no more digging through texts and emails.
- Direct messaging per project
- Share photos and documents in chat
- Full message history, always accessible
- Message any pro you have received a bid from
HandShake
Milestone-based payments, powered by Stripe. You fund a milestone, Stripe holds the money, and you release it when the work is done to your satisfaction. No more paying upfront and hoping for the best.
- Funds held securely by Stripe — not us
- Release payment only when you approve
- Set multiple milestones per project
- Built-in dispute process if something goes wrong

Add anyone to your project. Everyone on your Crew can view the board, follow updates, comment on decisions, and see the full budget — so everyone stays on the same page from start to finish.
- Invite anyone with a Build Board account
- Shared access to the full project board
- Crew members can comment and upload photos
- Activity feed shows every update in real time
Build Boards are social
Share your project board to The Workshop — ProvenQuote's home improvement community. Show your progress, get feedback from other homeowners, discover what local pros are working on, and find guides that match your exact project.
Pros can also publish how-to guides on The Workshop that link directly to their profile. Browse a guide on kitchen cabinet painting, then hire the pro who wrote it — that's the connection.
