The screed cockpit · Screed & Flooring Base
Estrichwerk — the screed software for office, crews and site
One system for the whole screed business. The screed layer works between the shell builder and the floor layer, so when something goes wrong later, he's the one people ask first. Estrichwerk keeps the proof on file as you go: the pressure test as a timestamped photo, the moisture test as its own follow-up appointment and invoice line, replanning mode for whenever the shell isn't ready.

No more paper notes, magnet boards and Excel
No trade depends on the state of the shell as much as screed work does: frost overnight, a site that isn't clear, a silo ordered wrong, and if the floor takes damage later, the screed layer gets asked first. Estrichwerk brings photo documentation, dispatch with replanning mode, machine scheduling, silo logistics, time tracking and invoicing into one system, built around how screed companies actually work.
“Readiness and the pressure test, documented before anyone starts arguing.”
A working day with Estrichwerk
From the first coffee to closing time: this is what daily work feels like.
-
06:45
A look at the dispatch board
Call from the foreman: the shell isn't frost-free. Replanning mode moves the day in one go, and the crew takes over the floor levelling in the existing build instead. No day lost.
-
07:10
The crews grab their iPad
“My tour today” shows each crew its sites, complete with property data (flow screed CAF, underfloor heating, silo spot in the yard) and the packing list: screed machine, rake & wobble bar, rotation laser, edge insulation strips.
-
09:30
On site
First, photograph the UFH pressure test: the checklist enforces the step before the flow screed hits the pipes. Then tick off: edge strips, level survey, pump, de-aerate & wobble.
-
13:30
Moisture test? Already scheduled.
Right after pouring, the follow-up quick action creates the CM moisture test in 21 days. No forgotten measuring appointment, the readiness certificate is firmly planned.
-
15:00
Sign-off on the iPad
The site manager signs right on the screen, and the invoice comes from the template: per-m² positions plus the CM test & report as its own position. Paid instead of a freebie.
-
16:30
End of the day
Clock out. The hours are in the system, and while planning tomorrow, Estrichwerk warns that the pump is already booked. Good to know before it becomes a problem.

Screed software that reflects the real workday
No trade depends on the state of the shell as much as screed work: cement screed, flow screed on underfloor heating, fast-setting screed, floor levelling, all sandwiched between frost, silo logistics and other trades waiting on readiness. Estrichwerk was built for exactly that routine: software for screed companies that works as well in the shell build as at the desk.
Readiness and the pressure test, documented before the arguing starts
The screed layer works between the shell builder and the floor layer, so if the floor takes damage later, he's the one everyone points at. Estrichwerk builds evidence into the workflow itself: the UFH pressure test hangs on the appointment as a timestamped photo, documented before the flow screed hits the pipes, and the template checklist enforces that step. The CM moisture test gets scheduled right at pouring through the follow-up quick action (“CM test in 21 days”) and sits on the invoice as its own line: 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, so 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 itself. Billing happens per m² before the dust settles. The site manager signs on the iPad, and the invoice is created straight from the appointment with positions from the template, from cement screed CT-C25-F4 at €28.50/m² to fast-setting screed with CM test & report, plus 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 any business whose day hangs on shell conditions and silo logistics. Estrichwerk bills the company, not the headcount, so 3 employees or 30 pay the same package price. Most companies start on Basis from €49.90 per month and move up to Pro at €94.90 once invoicing, projects and the route planner come into play.
Frequently asked questions
What does Estrichwerk cost?
Estrichwerk comes as a subscription in three packages, hosting, updates and support always included: Basis at €49.90 per month (up to 5 employees), Pro at €94.90 (up to 15 employees, our most popular package) and Premium at €169.90 (unlimited employees, every add-on module included). Prices apply with annual billing, plus VAT; billed monthly they're €59.90, €114.90 or €199.90. Basis and Pro customers can add the customer portal (+€19.90), the Agentur package (+€39.90) and the Einsatz package (+€29.90 per month) individually; Premium already has it all. Photo documentation is part of the Basis package, invoicing comes with Pro, and you never pay per user.
Can I document the pressure test and readiness?
That's exactly what Estrichwerk is built for: the UFH pressure test hangs on the appointment as a timestamped photo, documented before the screed hits the pipes, with the checklist enforcing 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's 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, floor levelling in the existing build, for instance. No lost day, no reshuffling chaos.
Does Estrichwerk warn me when the pump is double-booked?
It does. When you create an appointment, Estrichwerk checks whether the screed machine, power trowel or silo is already scheduled on another site that day and warns you immediately. It's a warning, not a block, so you still decide. The dashboard widget also shows where each machine stands today.
Will I stop forgetting CM measuring appointments?
That's 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?
Invoicing is a core feature here, 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, and existing businesses continue seamlessly from their last number. There's also a PDF with your own letterhead, open items, and payment reminders and dunning with one click. 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. That matters especially with general contractors, developers and public-sector clients. 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 use Estrichwerk?
Just a browser. Estrichwerk runs as your own instance with its own database on German servers, and hosting, updates and support are part of every package. We handle setup and data migration; you receive your login and get started. Prefer to run the software on your own server, or buy it outright? Custom solutions are available on request.
Can I test Estrichwerk beforehand?
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. 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?
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 in your own instance with its own database on German servers, GDPR-compliant and strictly separated from other companies. 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, quoting or a client portal among them, we build additions on request at a fixed price. Fastest way: describe your wish through our ticket system and we reply with a fixed-price quote.
Are there any hidden costs?
No. You only pay the package price: no per-user licences, no setup fee, no extra charges for updates or support. Setup and data migration from your current solution are included as well. The only addition is statutory VAT, and you can cancel monthly.
