What Our Customers Are Saying
We’ve been using Buildscout for a while now and it’s made a huge difference to how we manage our projects and communication with clients. The platform is straightforward, reliable and keeps everything organised in one place, which has really helped streamline our admin and follow-up process. Overall, Buildscout has been a great tool for us as a growing construction company, and we’d happily recommend it to anyone looking to bring more structure and professionalism to their workflow.
Buildscout has been excellent for us at Simply Extensions & Lofts Ltd. The software does what it should—clean interface, stable, and easy to use—but the real value is the team behind it. Responses are fast, solutions are practical, and nothing feels like a runaround. We’ve had a consistently personal, efficient service that helps us get the most out of the platform, not just “use” it. In short: reliable tech, backed by people who care. Highly recommended.
Mercia Electrical has been using Build Scout for just over two months, and it has already proven to be an invaluable tool for expanding our customer base. Through the platform, we’ve been able to view both domestic and commercial projects commencing in our chosen areas, giving us access to detailed information on project managers, homeowners, and architects.
