Your home project, organised.
From changing a bathroom sink to a loft conversion, BuildWise brings your brief, professionals, programme, decisions and community into one private place — with Wes, your AI project assistant.
One private place. Less chaos.
Your workspace is visible only to you. Nothing is shared with professionals unless you choose to send it. Start free — no card, no commitment.
Inside your workspace
My Project — your living brief
Goals, budget, timeline, site constraints and scope in one place. Every other tool — and Wes — reads from it, so advice is about your build, not a generic one.
Actions & decisions
The next right thing, always visible — plus a record of what you chose and why, so nothing gets re-litigated six months later.
Risks
Surface what quietly blows budgets — party walls, drainage, lead times, planning conditions — and log how you'll mitigate each one.
Files
Quotes, drawings, surveys and reports stored privately against your project instead of buried in email.
Programme & Gantt
Answer a few questions and BuildWise generates a real construction programme — phases, dependencies, milestones and contingency — on the England & Wales working calendar.
Find the right professionals
Set your strategy, get matched with vetted professionals from our 1,000+ UK directory, and send one consistent brief to everyone at once.
Structured responses
