The problem
Fit-out contractors are losing money on variations every day. Not because the work wasn't done — because there's no record the client asked for it, no price they agreed to, and no signature to prove it. When it ends up in dispute, you absorb the cost.
Client asks for changes verbally on site. Nothing gets written down. By the time you invoice, they've forgotten — or they're disputing the cost.
VOs raised on spreadsheets, emailed as PDFs, chased by text message. No audit trail. No legally timestamped approval.
A single disputed VO at £5,000 takes weeks to resolve and often gets written off. Multiplied across a project, it's your entire margin.
How it works
The moment a client requests a change, open Lintel on your phone. Description, photo, project — done. Timestamped automatically.
— Under 60 seconds
Lintel pulls your labour rates and materials prices and calculates the variation automatically. Override any line before sending.
— 30 seconds
The client receives a VOSign approval email. One tap to approve, one to reject. Legally timestamped. No login required.
— Client receives it in seconds
Every VO across every project — pending, approved, invoiced. Auto-chase sent if the client goes quiet after 48 hours.
— Live across all projects
Export all approved VOs as a variation schedule. Attach it to your invoice. The argument ends before it starts.
— One click
Why Lintel

Most software creeps up in price once you're dependent on it. Ours doesn't — 10 founding spots, and what you pay on day one is what you pay in year five, features included as we build them.
How Lintel compares
Most contractors are choosing between us, a spreadsheet, or nothing. Here's what that choice actually costs.
Lintel vs Spreadsheets
The client portal
VOSign is the client-facing approval portal built into Lintel. Every contractor gets a branded portal — no Lintel branding in sight. Growth and Scale plans unlock progressively more control over how it looks.
