Contractor Foreman Pricing Explained

Quick answer

Contractor Foreman pricing runs from approximately $49/month (Basic) to $249/month (Unlimited), with unlimited users included on every plan. There are no per-seat fees. The only variable is which plan covers the construction management modules your business needs.

The unlimited-user model explained

The most important thing to understand about Contractor Foreman pricing is what it does not charge for: users. Most comparable tools — Tradify, Jobber, and others in the field service and construction space — charge per user per month. On those platforms, a 10-person team pays 10x the per-seat rate.

Contractor Foreman's flat-plan model works differently. A 3-person contracting team and a 15-person construction firm pay the same plan price. As team size grows, the cost does not change. This structural difference makes Contractor Foreman increasingly cost-effective relative to per-user alternatives once the team exceeds 5–6 people.

For a 10-person trades team on Tradify Lite ($47/user/month), the monthly cost is $470/month. On Contractor Foreman Pro (~$166/month), the same 10 people pay $166/month — and get a broader construction management feature set. The unlimited-user model is the platform's clearest pricing advantage at team scale.

Plan tiers overview

Contractor Foreman offers five plan tiers as of May 2026:

Basic — approximately $49/month. The entry plan. Covers scheduling, daily logs, time tracking, client portal, financial management, and core construction documents. Suitable for small contractors needing centralised job and site management without the full module set.

Standard — approximately $79/month. Expands document management, reporting, and workflow controls above the Basic tier. The right upgrade when Basic's module set becomes the operational constraint.

Plus — approximately $125/month. Adds broader project management features and additional module access. For contracting businesses that need deeper coverage across estimates, job costing, and document workflows.

Pro — approximately $166/month. Adds equipment tracking, Gantt project views, custom safety forms, submittals, RFIs, and priority support. The right tier for established construction firms managing larger or more administratively complex projects.

Unlimited — approximately $249/month. Full module access across the platform. For construction businesses that need the complete Contractor Foreman feature set without restriction.

All plans include the 30-day free trial with no credit card required.

Module access by plan tier

The core construction management modules — scheduling, daily logs, time tracking, client portal, financial management, and document management — are available across plans. The meaningful differences come in the higher-value features:

• RFIs and submittals are typically available from the Pro tier, making Pro the entry point for construction firms dealing with architect and engineer communication.
• Gantt charts provide project-level scheduling views that basic scheduling alone does not offer. Available on Pro and above.
• Custom safety forms allow firms to build site-specific safety checklists, inspection forms, and safety programs. Available on Pro and above.
• Equipment tracking manages a fleet of construction equipment, vehicles, and tools. Available on Pro and above.

Confirm the exact module availability for each plan on the Contractor Foreman pricing page before selecting, as plan structures can change with promotions and product updates.

How to pick the right plan

Start with the plan that covers the 3–5 modules most critical to daily operations — not the plan with the most features. The 30-day trial is long enough to run real workflows before committing to a tier.

Use the trial to complete one full project lifecycle: set up the project, create an estimate, assign the team, run daily logs, track time, and generate an invoice. If RFIs, submittals, or safety forms are part of the daily workflow, test those specifically during the trial period on a Pro account.

Upgrade from a lower plan to a higher one when a specific module you consistently need is locked to the higher tier — not because the higher plan looks more comprehensive in principle.

When Contractor Foreman is worth it

Contractor Foreman earns its cost when it replaces the fragmented combination of spreadsheets, email chains, paper forms, and manual scheduling that most small-to-mid construction firms rely on. The value is clearest for firms where:

• Multiple people in the field need to update jobs, log time, and capture site notes
• Estimates need to track against actual job costs
• RFIs, submittals, and change orders are part of project management
• Safety documentation and custom forms are a compliance or client requirement
• Subcontractors need controlled platform access without adding to headcount cost

The unlimited-user model removes the friction of deciding who gets platform access. Everyone on the project can be added without changing the plan cost.

Alternatives to compare

Tradify ($47–$61/user/month) is a simpler trades job management tool with a per-user pricing model. Better suited to small trades teams (1–5 people) where the job workflow is simpler than construction project management. At team sizes above 6–8 people, Contractor Foreman's flat pricing becomes more cost-effective.

Buildertrend focuses on residential construction and has historically carried higher pricing. Compare directly for residential builders.

Procore is the enterprise construction standard, aimed at large construction firms with significant project portfolios. Substantially more expensive than Contractor Foreman.

Xero (£7–£65/month) is the accounting layer. Contractor Foreman integrates with QuickBooks and Xero, so the financial reporting and reconciliation layer can run alongside it without double entry.
