04 / Frequently asked
Saving on your materials: your questions
How can I save on construction materials for my business?
The fastest way is to compare the same product across several stores before buying, because the price of a commodity item (lumber, drywall, panels, screws) swings 10 to 25% from one banner to the next in Quebec. Instead of making those calls one by one, you paste your list into Bâtir à Rabais and the AI returns the lowest price on each item in 30 seconds. You buy at the best price or ask your rep to match it.
How do I increase my margin in construction?
Your margin lives on two levers: the price you bid and the real cost of your materials. On commodities, most contractors pay close to retail without knowing it, which eats 5 to 10% of margin on every order. By double-checking your rep’s price before each purchase, you claw that gap back straight into your pocket, without changing a single bid price.
How do I know if my supplier rep is giving me a good price?
Without something to compare against, a rep’s price is a black box. Take their quote, paste it into Bâtir à Rabais and compare it to the public price of Quebec’s major chains. In 30 seconds you see, item by item, whether their price is truly competitive or whether there is 5 to 10% to claw back elsewhere.
How do I bid lower without losing margin?
Lower your material cost before you lower your price. If you find your commodities 5 to 10% cheaper, you can bid tighter and win more contracts while keeping the same margin. Bâtir à Rabais gives you the real market price floor for every item on your list.
Where can I buy construction materials cheapest in Quebec?
It depends on the item and the week: no banner is cheapest on everything. Canac, BMR, Home Depot, Patrick Morin, Rona, Matério and the others fight on price item by item. Bâtir à Rabais compares them all at once and builds your cheapest buying plan, store by store.
Can I price match my construction materials?
Yes. Many stores will match a lower competitor price if you show it to them. Bâtir à Rabais gives you the proof: the same item, cheaper, at a nearby competitor. You stay at your usual store and bring the bill down, or you buy directly at the best price.
How long does it take to verify a quote?
About 30 seconds. You paste your list or a photo of the quote, the AI recognizes your products and builds the buying plan. No calls, no waiting on quotes to come back.
How much does it cost?
You start with a 14-day free trial that unlocks everything. After that, our plans include a set number of comparisons per month based on your volume. For a contractor shopping every week, the plan pays for itself on the first verified orders. See the Pricing page for details.
