Estrichwerk
The complete operating system for screed companies: pressure-test photos with timestamps, moisture testing as follow-up appointment and invoice position, replanning mode for frosty shells, machine dispatching with conflict warnings, crews and time clock.
No more paper notes, magnet boards and Excel
No trade depends on the state of the shell like screed work: frost overnight, the site not clear, the silo ordered wrong — and if the floor takes damage later, everyone asks the screed layer first. Estrichwerk brings photo documentation, dispatch with replanning mode, machine dispatching, silo logistics, time tracking and invoicing together in one system: built for the everyday work of screed companies.
Readiness and pressure test — documented before the arguing starts.
Screed software that reflects the real workday
No trade depends on the state of the shell like screed work: cement screed, flow screed on underfloor heating, fast-setting screed, floor levelling — and in between frost, silo logistics and following trades waiting for readiness. Estrichwerk was built for exactly this routine: software for screed companies that works as well in the shell build as at the desk.
Readiness and pressure test — documented before the arguing starts
The screed layer stands between the shell builder and the floor layer — and if the floor takes damage later, everyone points at him. Estrichwerk builds the chain of evidence into the workflow: the UFH pressure test hangs on the appointment as a timestamped photo, documented before the flow screed hits the pipes — the template checklist enforces the step. The CM moisture test is scheduled right at pouring via the follow-up quick action (“CM test in 21 days”) and stands on the invoice as its own position: the readiness certificate becomes a paid service instead of a freebie.
Shell not ready? No lost day
Frost overnight or the site isn’t clear — replanning mode moves all screed work of the day in one go, crew assignments stay, and the dispatch board shows the fallback site via drag & drop: floor levelling in the existing build instead of idle time. Silo spot and screed type sit in the customer file and travel into the tour view — the crew knows before setting off what to order and where to park it.
One pump, many sites
Screed machine, power trowel, silo: when creating an appointment, Estrichwerk warns about double-booking, the dashboard shows where each machine stands today, and the care note (“flush the hoses right away!”) hangs on the machine. Billing happens per m² before the dust settles: the site manager signs on the iPad, the invoice is created straight from the appointment — positions from the template, from cement screed CT-C25-F4 at €28.50/m² to fast-setting screed with CM test & report — with XRechnung for general contractors and developers and DATEV export for the tax adviser.
Who is Estrichwerk made for?
For screed companies with one or several crews: cement screed, flow screed on underfloor heating, fast-setting screed and floor levelling — and for every business whose day hangs on shell conditions and silo logistics. Whether 3 or 30 employees, the price stays the same, because Estrichwerk never charges per user. To get started we recommend the subscription plan from €49.90 per month — whole team included, no per-user fees.

Frequently asked questions
What does Estrichwerk cost?
With Estrichwerk you pick one of three plans — Basis €59.90/month (€49.90 billed yearly) for up to 5 employees, Pro €114.90 (€94.90 yearly) for up to 15 employees, Premium €199.90 (€169.90 yearly) for unlimited employees. Hosting, updates and support are always included, and you can switch anytime. Photo documentation and invoicing are included in every variant, and you never pay per user.
Can I document the pressure test and readiness?
Yes — that is what Estrichwerk is built for: the UFH pressure test hangs on the appointment as a timestamped photo, documented before the screed hits the pipes — the checklist enforces the step. You create the CM moisture test right at pouring via the follow-up quick action and bill it as its own position. Everything lives permanently in the customer history.
What if the shell isn’t ready?
That is when replanning mode kicks in: all screed work of the day moves in one go, crew assignments stay — and the dispatch board shows the fallback site via drag & drop, such as floor levelling in the existing build. No lost day, no reshuffling chaos.
Does Estrichwerk warn me when the pump is double-booked?
Yes — when creating an appointment, Estrichwerk checks whether the screed machine, power trowel or silo is already scheduled on another site the same day and warns immediately. Warning instead of blocking: you decide. The dashboard widget also shows where each machine stands today.
Will I stop forgetting CM measuring appointments?
That is exactly what the follow-up quick action is for: screed poured → “CM test in 21 days” created as a follow-up appointment with one click. The appointment sits in the calendar, the crew gets it in their tour — and the readiness certificate for the following trades is firmly planned.
Can I write invoices with Estrichwerk?
Yes — invoicing is a core feature, not a paid add-on. Invoices are created straight from the completed appointment, right after the sign-off signature if you wish, with per-m² positions from the service template — including the CM test & report as its own position. Invoice numbers are compliant and gap-free, the number range is freely configurable — existing businesses continue seamlessly from their last number. Plus: PDF with your own letterhead, open items, payment reminders and dunning with one click. If you prefer to work without the invoicing module, simply hide it.
Does Estrichwerk support XRechnung?
Yes — invoices can be exported as officially validated XRechnung e-invoices. Especially with general contractors, developers and public-sector clients, that puts you on the safe side. Dispatch goes straight from the system by email, via your own SMTP server or SendGrid.
Does my tax adviser get the data?
Yes, with one click: the DATEV export produces the posting batch plus all document PDFs for the chosen period — ready to hand over to the firm.
What do I need to run Estrichwerk?
A completely normal web hosting package with PHP and a MySQL database — no special server, no forced cloud. We handle installation and setup. And with the fully managed package you need nothing at all: Estrichwerk then runs entirely on our servers.
Can I test Estrichwerk beforehand?
Yes — the live demo is open to everyone: a complete installation with a sample company, two crews, 9 kits, priced templates and invoices in every status. Tap “Als Chef testen” (test as boss) on the login page, done. The demo resets itself every 30 minutes. And if you want to compare several trades: the demo hub at demos.pixagentur.com shows all live demos at a glance.
Does it work on the iPad and without reception?
Yes. Estrichwerk is a web app (PWA) with an app icon on the home screen. The time clock and daily tour work even in shell builds without reception and sync as soon as the network returns.
Does the software run under my company name?
Yes — white-label is included. Login, app name and business details carry your company, and your invoices appear on your own letterhead.
What about data protection?
Your customer and employee data lives on your own server — not in someone else's cloud. Roles and permissions control who sees what, an audit log documents changes, and uploaded photos are automatically stripped of GPS data.
Can Estrichwerk be adapted or extended for my company?
Yes. Modules can be switched off individually, and from extra fields to entire extensions — such as quoting or a client portal — we build additions on request at a fixed price. The fastest way is our ticket system: describe your wish and we reply with a fixed-price quote.
Is there a discount for founders and young businesses?
Yes, gladly. Just building up your screed business? Then our founder promo applies: 15 % off any plan for the first 12 months. From month 13 the regular price applies. Just mention in your inquiry that you founded recently.
Zahle ich pro Nutzer?
Nein. Der Preis gilt pauschal pro Betrieb bis zur Team-Grenze deines Pakets (Basis 5, Pro 15, Premium unbegrenzt) — keine Nutzerlizenzen, keine versteckten Kosten pro Mitarbeiter.
Wie kann ich kündigen?
Das Monats-Abo kannst du zum Ende jedes Monats kündigen, das Jahres-Abo zum Ende der Laufzeit — direkt in deiner Mitgliedschaft, kein Anruf nötig.
Gibt es eine Testphase?
14 Tage kostenlos testen, danach jederzeit kündbar. Keine automatische Abbuchung ohne dein Okay.
