LEVL · Contract admin for trade subcontractors
Get what you're owed, without the fuss.
Claims, contract admin, variation and retention tracking for subcontractors and trades. More time, less money lost, more money in your pocket.
Where the money goes missing
Different trades, same leaks.
Proper contract management stops costs sneaking up. Most tradies don't have the time to do it — they're busy doing the job.
Variations left unpaid
No time to write it up, so the details get lost. "We'll get it on the next one" only works so many times.
Claims that undersell or oversell
Quantities estimated at the end of the month, and items missed or claimed early. This can leave you short at the end of a job.
Retention nobody chases
Held for a year or more, then the release dates slip past. Better in your pocket than theirs.
Lost time on your weekends
Claims, paperwork and chasing payments, done after hours.
Your monthly claims, from start to finish.
Simple to use and intentionally light on your end.
When a job starts, send us the BOQ and project drawings. Then, each month:

Every trade sends it in differently.
The contract admin is much the same. What changes is what you've got to hand and how you get it to us. Pick your trade.
Plumbers and drainlayers
Stormwater, sewer and water. Usually a BOQ, long sections and a lot of dayworks on handshakes.
What you send us
- The drawing set, your subcontract and BOQ or schedule of rates, once per job
- A marked-up plan each month — coloured up or photographed on site
- Daywork sheets the foreman signed
What we prepare
- Monthly progress claim line by line against the BOQ
- Daywork variations priced at your rates, the month they happen
- Retention held and when it comes back
- When each payment is due, from your terms
Your dashboard
Where every job stands, on one screen.
Each client gets a dashboard set up around their trade and contracts. What you're owed, what's waiting on you, and what's held back.

What stays the same
The contract admin underneath.
Whatever the trade, a subcontract has the same moving parts. Those are what LEVL keeps on top of, so you don't have to.
- The contract
- Subcontract or purchase order, rates or a lump sum, and the terms that come with it.
- Progress claims
- Each period, what's been done, measured and priced — in the head contractor's format.
- Variations
- Extra work and changes, written up with backup while it's fresh.
- Retention
- What's held, the release points, and when to ask for it back.
- Payment
- When each claim is due, and what's still outstanding.
More time, more money. It all starts with a call.
