The starting point
Neil Roper was putting Quotify’s output through his own checks. He wanted to see whether the measurements matched the job he was working on, and he was going back through the detail himself.
While looking for a particular brick on the job, Neil reviewed the measurements Quotify had produced. That gave him something concrete to judge: the detail on a project he knew.
How Quotify was used
In a follow-up call on 18 September, Neil described rechecking the measurements to see whether Quotify had got them right. His verdict on the brick measurements was positive.
“It was pretty bang on with the measurements of the brick. So, I'm happy with that.”

A reason to keep going with Quotify
That positive check sat alongside a real choice about what to use next. Neil said another company had approached him with a £250 offer including VAT. He had declined: “I've told them I've found something that's a lot cheaper.”
He was still getting familiar with Quotify, but his intention was clear: “I will be using you going forward.” He planned to finish his current job and call Reuben when he had the next project, so they could work through it and discuss a subscription.
Neil also offered practical feedback. He wanted smaller but essential materials — including cavity ties, insulation and damp-proofing — to be accounted for more fully. He supported the idea of follow-up questions to capture details that might be missing from drawings.
The conversation ended with a plan to continue. For Neil, the brick measurements had stood up to his review, and he saw potential to make future quoting easier: “I really think it will save me a lot of time.”

Confidence from a first project check
Neil’s measurement feedback describes the brick measurements he checked on this job. He was still reviewing the wider output and said it had not yet saved him much time. Time savings and a subscription were things he looked forward to, rather than completed outcomes at the time of the call.
The £250 offer was from an unnamed company. The call does not establish that it covered the same service or scope, so it is context for Neil’s decision rather than a like-for-like price comparison.
What another builder can take from it
Try Quotify on a project you can check against your own experience. Review the quantities, look for missing items and use your judgement to decide what belongs in the final quote.
Neil’s early experience shows how confidence can start with a specific check. His next step was to bring another project and build on what he had learned. Your first complete project is free.
