Tired of Endless Emails and Texts? Here's a Better Way to Communicate on the Job

HomearrowBusinessarrow

If you're a builder, contractor, or interior designer, you probably spend more time than you'd like juggling texts, emails, and phone calls. From answering client questions and confirming selections to sharing updates with your team, communication often feels like a full-time job.

The truth is: it shouldn’t be this hard.

The Problem with How We Communicate Today

Most of us are still relying on tools that weren’t built for construction or design projects. You’re piecing together updates from multiple platforms—email, text, shared folders, even handwritten notes—and hoping nothing slips through the cracks.


Sound familiar?

🔁 Duplicate conversations with clients, trades, and vendors
🔍 Lost information buried in endless message threads
📎 Outdated attachments that lead to costly mistakes
Wasted time re-explaining decisions or chasing updates

All of this adds up to delays, frustration, and extra work you shouldn’t have to do

A Smarter Way to Keep Projects Moving

A growing number of builders and designers are turning to digital tools that bring project communication into one centralized, visual space—no more buried emails or confusing group texts.

Derek Connelly of Rogue Builders shared how this shift changed the game for his team:

“Digs transformed our workflow,” Derek explains. “If a client has a question or suggestion at two in the morning, they simply leave a note on Digs. We wake up, respond, and move forward—no more phone-tag or tracking email chains.”


Instead of scrambling to piece together conversations, everything lives in one place—plans, selections, photos, notes. And because everyone is looking at the same info, updates are easier to track and decisions don’t get lost in the shuffle.

Chris Williams from Williams Williams Contracting adds:

“Being able to instantly search and find exact specifications through AskDigs is huge. No more scrolling through emails or texts; answers are immediate, accurate, and clear.”

Less Noise, More Focus

Simplifying how we communicate doesn’t just reduce stress—it saves time, builds trust with clients, and frees you up to focus on the work that actually matters.

You don’t need more messages. You need centralized communication. And that starts by ditching the scattered systems and giving your team and clients a shared place to stay in sync.

Digs is an AI-powered collaboration software built for homebuilders. From pre-con to aftercare, it keeps your team, trades, and clients aligned with one centralized workspace for decisions, documentation, digital handoff, and ongoing warranty support.
