General Contractors

Filter construction inquiries before they reach your PMs

From kitchen remodels to commercial build-outs, Converzaq captures scope and timeline signals so estimators spend time on viable projects.

General contractor reviewing plans at a residential remodel site

Scope drives everything

GC offices lose hours on vague project inquiries

Homeowners say they want a remodel but cannot describe square footage, structural changes, or finish level. PMs drive across town for walks that never matched your minimum project size.

Commercial tenants call about fast-track build-outs while residential leads fill the same voicemail. Without intake structure, urgent TI bids wait behind bathroom tile questions.

Website portfolios inspire visitors who submit email-only forms with no budget or start date—forcing three callbacks before anyone knows if the job fits.

  • Unqualified walks consume estimator time
  • Commercial and residential leads share one inbox
  • Permit and design questions repeat daily
  • After-hours inquiries go unanswered

GC intake workflow

Scope, viability, and knowledge-backed process answers.

  1. Step 1

    Project discovery

    Remodel type, rooms, commercial vs residential.

  2. Step 2

    Viability capture

    Budget range, timeline, plans, and occupancy.

  3. Step 3

    Process answers

    Design-build steps, licensing, and minimums from KB.

  4. Step 4

    Score opportunity

  5. Step 5

    PM follow-up

Converzaq does not provide construction estimates or permit approvals—only structured intake.

  • “How do you handle change orders?”
  • “Do you work with my architect's plans?”
  • “Are you insured for commercial tenant work?”
  • “How long does a typical kitchen remodel take?”
