CoConstruct customers can add new projects only through March 31, 2027 [1] [2], and the next step CoConstruct offers is Buildertrend. If you're a residential remodeler, it's a good moment to look at what else fits before you sign a new contract.
Written by Josh Shelton, founder of Remodelr and a remodeler for 20 years. I'm biased, so every claim about CoConstruct and Buildertrend links to its source. Checked October 2026.
Buildertrend bought CoConstruct in February 2021. [8] CoConstruct's own migration pages now say existing customers can keep adding projects through March 31, 2027. [1] [2] The plan they describe: finish active jobs in CoConstruct for the first three months while onboarding in Buildertrend with an account manager, then start new projects in Buildertrend from month four. [1]
CoConstruct's site offers new visitors demos, mostly of Buildertrend, and no CoConstruct signup. [4] [5]
The migration page says no project data will be lost and that you keep access to CoConstruct to look at past projects, but doesn't say for how long. [1] It describes a migration specialist reviewing how your workflow carries over, [1] [3] A card is needed to create the Buildertrend account, and isn't charged at that step. [1] [2]
You'll see shutdown dates and migration prices quoted on other software companies' blogs. We couldn't find a shutdown date or a migration price on CoConstruct's or Buildertrend's own pages, so they're not repeated here.
Buildertrend doesn't publish prices. Its pricing page asks for your builder type and annual revenue and gives you a quote, with unlimited users and a limited-time 10% discount for paying annually. [6] Its terms renew automatically and don't refund mid-term. [9] Ask for the full quote, the term and the renewal terms in writing before you agree to move.

Buildertrend's column is from CoConstruct's and Buildertrend's own pages, linked. Remodelr doesn't have CoConstruct's specs, trade-partner bidding or purchase orders [7]; if you relied on those, weigh that.
There's no automatic import from CoConstruct. The approach CoConstruct itself suggests works here too: finish active jobs where they are, and start your next estimate in Remodelr. For a job already sold, Add existing job brings in the contract, deposit and allowances so you can run the rest of it here.
Make a selection sheet from the estimate and send the client their link. They record what they picked and what it cost, and you see the overage against each allowance the day they enter it.
Run a job you've already priced in CoConstruct. Correct what's off, and Rate Capture keeps those corrections, so the second job starts at your numbers.
CoConstruct's migration pages say existing customers can add projects through March 31, 2027, and keep access to look at past projects afterwards. [1] [2] They don't give a date for that access ending.
No. Buildertrend is the path CoConstruct offers, but your contract is your own choice. Ask for Buildertrend's quote and terms in writing, and compare them with anything else you're considering.
Not automatically. Most people finish current jobs in CoConstruct and start new ones in Remodelr. Add existing job lets you bring in a job that's already sold.
It has selection sheets with allowances, change orders and detailed estimates, but not CoConstruct's separate specs, trade-partner bidding or purchase orders.
Run a job you've already priced and see how close it lands. Fourteen days free, month to month after that.
14 days free, then $97 a month. Cancel before it ends and you're not charged.
