Your builder sent you here
Most of building a home is waiting without information. Your builder knows what happened today. Until now, you found out on a phone call, if you remembered to make it.
That’s a demo house — have a look before your invite arrives.
What you get
Photos from site, filed by room. Not a weekly summary written for you — the actual pictures your builder took while working.
They choose what to share. You’ll see finished work, not every scrap pile.
Every finish you need to pick, what the allowance covers, and what the one you want actually costs. Approve with one tap.
Dated, so nobody has to remember in August what was agreed in March.
The things your builder needs from you, with the date they need them by. Answered early, your installs stay on schedule.
This is the single biggest cause of custom home delays. It’s mostly solvable by asking sooner.
Crew days on a calendar, so you know whether Thursday is a good day to walk the site.
If your builder turns that on. Some prefer not to.
Worth being clear about
This isn’t a window into your builder’s business, and it shouldn’t be. A good build needs them to have working room.
You see your house, your money — allowances, upcharges, invoices, what’s outstanding — and the decisions that are yours to make. That’s the line, and it’s deliberate.
Getting in
It looks like PB-XXXXXXX and usually arrives as a text with a link.
On iPhone: tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. It then behaves like any other app. There’s nothing to download from an app store.
Your name, your email, a password. The code joins you to your house and nothing else.
New photos, decisions needed, invoices. Off by default — you’re not going to be pestered.
If your builder isn’t using it
Plenty of good builders are still running a job out of a camera roll and a group text. It works right up until it doesn’t. If yours would rather see it than read about it, the example build is open to anyone.
