Time tracking for flooring installers
Track visits throughout your day
Your work can include Sanding and refinishing, Subfloor leveling, Laminate and LVP installation. You might visit Residential remodels, New construction builds, Commercial retail fit-outs in one day. Use your timeline to review each recorded visit before billing.
Common time-tracking challenges
- Forgetting to log the extra trips to the warehouse for missing transitions or adhesive
- Losing track of time spent on tedious subfloor prep versus the actual installation phase
- Difficulty justifying travel time between far-flung residential job sites
- Missing out on billable minutes during the transition from carpet removal to floor prep
How TradesTimer handles it
- Automatically captures every trip to the flooring supply house as a mileage-tracked event
- Records the full duration of a job by auto-detecting stops from prep to final trim
- Provides an automated, exportable log of all site visits to back up your hours
- Eliminates manual entry for every drive between different residential properties

I am not sure how much to charge for heavy patch, specifcally I'm hand patching SDP. Should I track my hours and charge by that, or just charge by the bag? … since moving out into doing my own work the hardest part is finding a good price for things
Whether you bill by the hour or by the bag, you need real hours-per-job data to price without ripping off anyone — yourself included. That data accumulates automatically when every site visit is logged.
