The renovation you want — without the risk and hassle.
Foreman is the independent expert on your renovation. We check every trade's work against the National Construction Code and only release payment once it's right. You get the renovation you were promised — without managing any of it.
Why Foreman?
The quality is all in what you can't see
Footings, framing, wiring, plumbing, waterproofing — the work that decides whether it lasts gets built over and never seen again. Foreman checks each stage against the standards before it's covered up, so what you can't see is done right.
A warranty you can't actually claim
Most product guarantees only hold if the material was installed exactly as the maker specifies — and without a record, you can't prove it was. Foreman logs how every stage was done, with photos, measurements and sign-offs, so you have the proof you need to make a claim.
Don't pay before you know it's right
Today, stage payments go out long before anyone knows the work was done properly — and by the time you find out, the money's spent. With Foreman, you only pay once each stage has been checked and passed.
Home improvement the smart way
Funds are held safely and released only once each stage is complete and correct.
We visit site and inspect each stage for you, then send photos and notes — you stay across every detail without taking a day off.
If something goes wrong, we step in with the evidence and sort it out — no arguments.
How Foreman works
Your trade sets the plan
They break the job into stages the way they'd work it anyway, and name the products they're using. We turn that into a checklist from the standards behind it — and you both sign it off before anyone starts.
LOGGED
Evidence captured against the standard
Each check names what it needs before the trade starts — the membrane height, the fall, the film thickness. What gets logged on site is proof against AS 3740 and the product's own datasheet, not just a photo.
We do the checking
Every check is a number against a limit — the turn-up height, the dry film thickness, the cure time before a flood test. Measured against AS 3740 and the membrane maker's own datasheet.
You review, payment moves
A short summary lands in your inbox: passed, queried, what happens next. One tap to release the stage payment.
Built with good trades, not against them
The trades we've spoken to are tired of being lumped in with cowboys, chased for snags they didn't cause, and paid sixty days late. Foreman is a record of work done properly — and a faster route to getting paid for it.
- Stage payments released the day the work passes — not when the homeowner gets round to it.
- A standards-backed record that settles snag disputes before they turn into arguments.
- Evidence logged from your phone in minutes, not an evening of paperwork.
- A verified track record that wins you the jobs price-only competitors can't.
“Winning work used to mean talking people into trusting me. Now the quality is guaranteed and the risk is off the table, so the quote sells itself. I spend my time building, not convincing.”
