About ListoTrades

ListoTrades builds free, simple tools for contractors and service businesses in the United States, in English and Spanish.

Why this site exists

Thousands of painters, cleaners, landscapers, handymen and other tradespeople run their business in Spanish but work for clients who read English. Most invoicing and estimating apps are only in English, charge a monthly subscription or ask you to create an account just to send one document.

ListoTrades is different: the tools are free, they work on your phone, you don't need an account, and you can write in Spanish and hand your client a document in English.

Who is behind it

ListoTrades is a project by Javier Fleites, based in Illinois, USA. I build websites for small businesses, including contractors, and I created these tools to solve the everyday paperwork problems I see them face.

How we work

• Free tools, supported by ads. You never pay to use them.
• Your data stays on your device. What you type in the tools is not sent to our servers. Read our privacy policy.
• Clear and honest results. Calculators show how they work, and results are estimates to guide your decisions, not professional, legal or tax advice.
• Built with feedback. If something is wrong or a tool is missing, tell us.
