Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

01. How does Cretegen help contractors save time on quoting?
Cretegen automates the budgetary pricing process, allowing customers to generate their own preliminary estimates before reaching out for a formal quote. This means contractors spend less time on unqualified leads, fewer site visits for price shoppers, and more time closing high-value jobs.
02. Can Cretegen be customized for my concrete business?
Yes! Each contractor can set their own pricing, services, and available options, ensuring estimates align with their actual business offerings. You can choose the types of projects you offer (driveways, patios, sidewalks, etc.), set your per-square-foot or linear-foot pricing, and add custom add-ons like decorative borders, colored finishes, or reinforcement.
03. Does Cretegen replace my current quoting process?
No, Cretegen serves as a pre-qualification tool that helps contractors filter out unqualified leads. It provides homeowners with an accurate budgetary estimate, but final pricing is still determined through an on-site evaluation. This ensures you’re only meeting with serious customers who understand the project scope and costs.
04. 4. How does Cretegen help increase my close rate?
By allowing potential customers to generate realistic estimates based on your pricing, Cretegen helps homeowners self-qualify before contacting you. When they request a consultation, they’ve already seen the price range and are more likely to move forward with the project, making it easier for you to close the deal.
05. How do I add Cretegen to my website?
Coming Soon…
Cretegen can be embedded directly onto your website or shared as a standalone custom-branded link. This allows customers to interact with your pricing and services without leaving your site, reducing friction and increasing conversion rates.
06. What types of projects can Cretegen handle?
The platform is built for residential and light commercial concrete projects, including:
- Driveways & parking pads
- Patios & outdoor living spaces
- Sidewalks & walkways
- Concrete slabs for sheds, garages, or ADUs
- Custom concrete steps
Contractors can also add custom options, such as stamped concrete, decorative borders, or demolition services.
07. Can I adjust my pricing over time?
Absolutely. Cretegen allows contractors to update pricing in real-time as material costs fluctuate. Whether you need to adjust concrete per-square-foot rates, add-on pricing, or labor costs, you have full control over your pricing settings.
08. How does Cretegen capture leads for my business?
When a homeowner generates an estimate, their contact information and project details are instantly sent to you. You’ll receive a detailed breakdown of their selected options, site location, and estimated budget, allowing you to quickly follow up and schedule a formal consultation.

Yes! Cretegen is fully mobile-optimized, making it easy for both homeowners and contractors to use on smartphones and tablets. Homeowners can draw their project area, get an estimate, and submit their details—all from their phone.
