Pay application software for flooring subcontractors
DrawPrep helps flooring subcontractors separate material, floor prep and installation by area and prepare G702/G703-style pay applications, with stored material backup and change orders for selection changes.
Billing challenges in flooring
Early material purchase
Tile, carpet and resilient flooring often need to be ordered early and stored, which affects cash flow and billing.
Prep that is easy to miss
Moisture testing and floor leveling deserve their own lines so that work is visible.
Selection changes
Owner finish changes are common; approved changes should update the SOV before billing.

Flooring billing questions
- Can flooring contractors bill for stored material?
- Many contracts allow it with invoices and storage or delivery records. Confirm the rules in your contract.
- Should floor prep be its own SOV line?
- A separate prep line makes that work visible and billable as it is completed, instead of hiding it in install lines.
- Can DrawPrep track retainage on this kind of job?
- Yes. You set the retainage rate the contract requires, and each pay application carries it forward and flags a rate that changes between periods so you can confirm it before sending.
