A Story Bigger Than Construction
At Dom’s Workshop, building homes is more than just laying down floors or putting up walls—it's about rebuilding lives. The company was founded by Dominic Campelo, whose personal journey from homelessness to business ownership shapes every project he and his team take on. Specializing in residential remodeling, Dom’s Workshop focuses on transforming spaces with a deep respect for the stories and people behind every home.
But as the company grew and the projects multiplied, so did the challenges. Juggling client expectations, managing crews across job sites, and organizing photos, notes, and updates became increasingly complex. The old ways—text threads, scattered documents, and phone tag—just couldn’t keep up.
That’s when TaskTag stepped in. This case study explores how TaskTag helped Dom’s Workshop simplify its processes, improve communication, and deliver better results for every homeowner they serve.
Before TaskTag: A Jobsite Juggling Act
As Dom’s Workshop expanded, so did its headaches. The team faced mounting challenges in three major areas:
1. Communication Chaos
Trying to coordinate teams and subcontractors across multiple sites often felt like a game of telephone.
“My crew, they don’t have to go through their messages anymore asking, ‘What was that address Dominic sent last week?’” — Dominic, Founder
Important details like site addresses or material drop-off notes were often buried in long text threads or forgotten entirely. As a result, time was wasted, and mistakes were made.
2. Disorganized Documentation
Keeping track of photos, job progress, and notes for multiple remodeling projects was like chasing scattered papers in the wind.
“Construction tracking and photo documentation was all over the place—now it's finally organized.”
Without a centralized place to store and access images or updates, crews spent extra time trying to get up to speed on each job. That inefficiency translated into project delays and missed opportunities to impress clients.
3. Friction in Collaboration
As Dom began working with architects and designers, coordinating inputs and updates became even more complicated.
“It’s just because you invite your architect, you invite your designers, and they’re like, ‘Oh, this is great.’ Then they start collaborating with others. It’s like a cascade effect.”
Other tools were too bulky, too complicated, or just too expensive for collaborators to want to join. The result? Communication gaps, lost time, and incomplete project visibility.

Implementing TaskTag: A Game-Changer for Small Teams
When Dom’s Workshop adopted TaskTag, everything changed—almost overnight.
A Tool That’s Actually Built for Builders
TaskTag isn’t your typical complicated project management software. It’s streamlined, visual, and designed with the realities of construction work in mind.
“Look how easy the software is… I’m seeing four buttons on the side. I click Projects—it has everything in a list. Super simple. Super handy.”
For Dom’s team, the simplicity of the interface was a game-changer. No training required. Just open the app and get to work.
Real-Time Access on the Go
The TaskTag mobile app allowed field workers to instantly access jobsite details, update progress, and share photos—without chasing down texts or playing catch-up at the end of the day.
“I can click the address, and it opens Google Maps immediately. The app on the phone is even better.”
For a crew that’s constantly on the move, this location-smart access removed friction and saved hours every week.
Instant Collaboration with Free Contributor Access
TaskTag’s unique pricing model meant that Dom didn’t have to worry about onboarding external partners or growing his internal team.
Only the main account pays, and everyone else—from architects to subcontractors—can join for free.
“They rely on you inviting others, and then they fall in love with it. Then they get their own.”
This created a viral effect, where collaborators who experienced the ease of TaskTag naturally wanted to keep using it in their own workflows.

TaskTag’s new Calendar Sync and Timesheets features gave Dom a powerful new way to manage schedules and track hours—all within the same tool.
- Crew check-ins and location tracking made payroll and job costing more accurate.
- Project deadlines were synced to personal calendars, reducing scheduling conflicts.
“It definitely tells itself. Once you use it, you get why it’s better.”
