Built for Every Job — Sharpened for Short-Term Rentals

Run your business. Not your paperwork.

MaintainSTR gives contractors a professional way to quote, schedule, document, and get paid — on your own book of clients, whether or not they're on the platform.

Sharpened for short-term rentals, where a slow fix costs a guest's vacation and a PM's star rating.

The Work Isn't the Hard Part

Your week, without the overhead.

The work isn't the hard part. Everything around it is.

The admin never stops

The calls, the scheduling, the quote you meant to write that night. Every hour on paperwork is an hour off the tools — and off growing the business.

Quality without babysitting

You hand off a job and hope it comes back right. Without a standard process, 'hope' is the plan — and checking every job yourself defeats the point of having a team.

Getting paid on time

The work's done. Now it's just... waiting. Cash flow sits exposed until someone remembers to pay — or you remember to chase it.

When a client pushes back

'Was that actually done?' Without a timestamped photo or video, that's a he-said-she-said you can't win fast — and it costs you the relationship either way.

MaintainSTR doesn't remove the work. It removes everything around it.

What You Can Do

Capabilities

Everything you need to run a professional operation, in one place.

Show up professional, every time

Quotes, invoices, and job history that make you look like the operation you actually run — not a guy with a toolbox and a notepad.

Your book, your clients

Bring your own clients onto the platform and bill them directly — whether or not they're on MaintainSTR themselves.

The field and the desk, both covered

Full offline mode on mobile when you're on-site with no signal, synced the moment you're back online — plus the full desktop experience whenever you need the bigger picture.

Turn old leads into new work

See every issue that's been sitting unresolved and quote it the moment you've got the bandwidth — without digging through old texts and emails to remember what was asked for.

Built With Real Contractors

From people who've run the tools

Built alongside a contractor who's actually run this business — someone who's used Housecall Pro and ServiceTitan in the field and found them built for general home services, not for the specific demands of short-term rentals: no property-turn tracking, no shared record with the property manager, nothing built around what a guest actually experiences. MaintainSTR started from that gap.
