Case Study: DMJ Restorations achieves end-to-end financial control and improved margins with Buildertrend's Budget

How Buildertrend’s Budget Tool Provides End-to-end Tracking to Keep This Team in Financial Control

DMJ Restorations (and sister company DMJ Design Build) is a San Antonio–area custom home build and renovation firm that struggled to manage two separate cashflows and growing demand using spreadsheets and two prior software solutions. To gain a single source of truth for project financials and operations they adopted Buildertrend, primarily using its Budget tool along with Customer Portal and Payment Processing to bring visibility and control to both businesses.

Buildertrend’s Budget and payment features gave DMJ end-to-end tracking—actuals vs. estimates, bills, change orders and online payments—so teams see near-real-time numbers and clients interact through a portal. The results: budgeting a remodel in about 30 minutes, entering expenses within 48 hours, Monty Brock saving roughly five hours per week on financial tracking, more than $100k in client payments processed without pickups, and noticeably improved margins and client communication thanks to Buildertrend.
