For deck staining and refinish crews

Deck staining before and after on your page

Capture the weathered boards and the fresh stain on your phone, keep them on your FWDLink page, and send the customer one link. Then put those before and after photos on the invoice — and show real work on your page so nearby jobs can find you.

Capture. Share from your page. Get the next stain job.

  • Capture before and after on the job

    Take the photos while you stain. Both shots land in one album for that address.

  • Send one link from your page

    Customers open the gallery in any browser. No app for them — just your page.

  • Invoice with the same photos

    Attach the album when you send the estimate or invoice from FWDLink.

  • Get found for new stains

    Show real before and after on your page. Nearby customers can see your work and reach out.

Capture jobsite photos without hunting the camera roll

The before often sits on one phone and the after on another, and Tuesday's pool deck disappears into Recents. FWDLink keeps both shots in one album for that address, so when the customer asks to see the work, you open the back deck — not a scroll through the whole week. Capture on site, file it once, and keep the before and after pair ready.

Send customers a link from your page

They open a clean gallery under your company name — no app to install. One link works for a back deck, a pool deck, or a front porch, and you can keep adding photos while they still have the same link. It looks like your brand, not a pile of compressed texts from the job.

Put proof on the estimate and invoice

The photos you already shared can go on the estimate or invoice from the same page. You do not switch apps to dig for the finished shot, and the customer sees the work next to the number. Same album, same brand, one place to close the stain job.

Show your work and get more jobs

Your free FWDLink page can show real before and after stains — the jobs you are proud of. Say you are taking work, and nearby customers can see what you do and reach out. The same photos that close today's invoice can help you win the next backyard on the street.

Crew uploads while the office shares

Invite the stain crew to add photos so field and office see the same set. You decide what the customer sees, send the link from your page, and keep the invoice with those shots. Nobody is chasing texts between coats.

Four reasons deck crews try FWDLink

  • Photos scattered across phones

    The before is on the helper's phone. The after is on yours. The customer gets neither.

    One album on your page

    Everyone uploads to the same address. You send one link.

  • Camera roll for every job

    Tuesday's pool deck and Thursday's front porch look the same in Recents.

    File by address

    Open the back deck — the photos are already there.

  • Ugly handoffs

    Compressed texts do not look like a finished stain.

    A clean customer link

    They open your page in the browser and scroll the before and after.

  • Proof in one place, invoices in another

    You prove the stain in photos, then switch apps to bill.

    Photos and invoices together

    Attach the album when you send the estimate from the same page.
