Frequently asked questions
What plumbing scopes does TradeBid handle?
New construction rough-in, tenant improvements, remodels, commercial kitchens, restroom buildouts, underground plumbing, and fixture replacement projects.
Can it break out phases separately?
Yes — TradeBid organizes line items by work phase (underground, rough-in, trim-out) so your bid matches how you'll invoice.
Do I need to upload plans or is a written scope enough?
Either works. TradeBid can generate a bid from a written scope document, a PDF of plans, or a photo of a hand-drawn sketch.
