If you've ever done a home renovation project—whether it's a kitchen remodel, basement finish, or full home upgrade—you know that poor communication and unorganized scheduling can turn even the best designs into frustrating experiences. That’s why at Choice City Home Services, we’ve built our reputation not just on craftsmanship, but on a remodeling experience that’s organized, transparent, and stress-free.
At the heart of that experience is our commitment to excellent project management—and our use of the industry-leading software Buildertrend.
In this post, we’ll walk you through how we manage projects from start to finish, how Buildertrend helps keep everything running smoothly, and why our clients consistently rave about how easy and professional the process feels.
Unfortunately, many homeowners have heard—or lived through—stories of remodeling projects that started with excitement and ended in chaos. Common issues include:
These aren’t just annoying—they can throw off your entire household. That’s why we do things differently at Choice City Home Services.
We believe a great remodeling project starts with a great plan, but it doesn’t stop there. Managing that plan is where real value is delivered. That’s why we’ve developed a proven system for seamless project coordination, proactive communication, and complete transparency—so you’re never in the dark.
From the moment you sign your contract with us to the final walk-through, our dedicated team stays organized, keeps the timeline moving, and keeps you informed at every step.
To bring this level of clarity to your remodeling experience, we use Buildertrend—a cloud-based project management software built specifically for residential construction and remodeling.
Think of Buildertrend as your personal remodeling control center. It’s an easy-to-use platform that gives you 24/7 access to everything happening on your project, from anywhere.

That’s the goal: control, without stress.
On our side, Buildertrend is just as powerful. It helps our team stay synchronized, even across multiple projects, trades, and job sites.
Here’s how we use it behind the scenes:
🔧 Preconstruction Planning
We build out your project’s detailed schedule during our preconstruction phase. Permits, material orders, inspections—all of it gets mapped out in Buildertrend before we swing a hammer.
🔧 Subcontractor Scheduling
We invite our electricians, plumbers, and other trades into Buildertrend so they can view the schedule and update their availability. Everyone’s working off the same calendar.
🔧 Project Checklists and Quality Control
Each crew has a checklist to complete before marking a phase “done.” That keeps quality high and timelines moving.
🔧 Budget and Change Order Management
Buildertrend helps us keep your project on budget—and notify you quickly if anything changes, with clear documentation and approvals.
🔧 Client Communication
Our project manager, office staff, and team members all communicate through the platform, so your messages are seen and responded to quickly.
Buildertrend is integrated into every step of our remodeling process, from start to finish. Here's how it supports our proven 5-step system:
Software is only as good as the people using it. What makes Buildertrend so powerful in our hands is our team’s commitment to clarity, follow-through, and professional service. We don’t just want to build great spaces—we want to make the process enjoyable.
