Demolition Contractors face unique challenges: Dump fees vary by material type and weight. Hidden asbestos or lead paint stops a job cold. Equipment costs and maintenance on heavy machinery. Permit requirements add time and cost to every job. On top of all that, QuickBooks charges $55/month ($660/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median demolition contractor earns $48,000/year. Software at $660/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Skid steer or mini excavator is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
