Travaux Tranquilles is a custom-built web platform designed to transform how construction and renovation projects are managed. It addresses a critical need: securing payments, organizing worksites, and restoring trust between private clients and construction professionals.
The Challenge
The construction industry suffers from a lack of transparency: clients worry about scams, contractors face payment defaults, and projects struggle with poor coordination between trades.
Our Approach
Eskelia led the entire development with a strong requirement: 100% proprietary code, without CMS or turnkey solutions. This approach ensures:
Complete intellectual property ownership
for the client
Total scalability
without dependency on third-party tools
Optimal performance
tailored to business needs
Enhanced security
for sensitive data and financial transactions
Robust Technical Architecture
We designed a multi-stakeholder platform featuring:
Identity management
Client, contractor, and site manager accounts with SIRET verification via INSEE API
Modular project system
Breakdown into "blocks" by trade lots (plumbing, electrical, painting, etc.)
Smart escrow payment
Funds are held and released progressively upon validation of each milestone
Material management
Requests processed through a network of partner suppliers
Integrated communication
Real-time messaging contextual to each project
Universal interface
Responsive design optimized for all devices, including older generation phones

Innovation at the Heart of the Trade
Step-by-Step Escrow Payment
The "trusted third party" system ensures money is available but only released after work validation. Each trade lot has its own milestone system, allowing fine granularity and fairness for all.
Automated Contractor Verification
Integration with INSEE API to validate SIRET numbers in real-time, drastically reducing fraud risks and strengthening client confidence.
Structured Communication
Unlike scattered email or SMS exchanges, the integrated messaging automatically archives all project-related discussions, serving as evidence in case of disputes.

- Trust restored between clients and contractors through total transparency
