Why plumbers switch

Built for service work and new construction without forcing one tool to fit both.

Parts catalog at the truck

Common parts pre-priced. Tech adds them to the invoice with one tap. Customer sees a real itemized invoice instead of a guessed flat rate.

Warranty visits stay on the job

That bathroom rough-in from January? When the customer calls in April with a slow drain, you open the same job. Tech sees what was installed and where.

After-hours and weekend rates

Different rate scheduling for emergency calls. Auto-applied to the invoice based on when the visit happened. No mental math, no awkward conversation.

Multi-stop scheduling

Three service calls within five miles. Schedule them in order on the route map. Tech's day stays efficient.

Quotes for repair vs. replace

Send the customer two line items: fix the leak, or replace the water heater. They pick the option in the approval link. Job updates to the chosen scope.

Sub-meter projects

New-construction rough-in jobs run alongside service calls in the same workspace. Different pipeline stages, same dashboard, same billing.

How a job runs

A typical plumbing job in Construction Scope

Walk through what the same job looks like in the tool, from the first call to the final payment.

  1. 1

    Service call to on-site arrival

    Homeowner has a clogged drain. Create a service ticket — address, symptom, urgency. Dispatch view shows the closest plumber. Estimated arrival time texted to the customer automatically.

  2. 2

    Diagnose, quote, repair

    Plumber arrives. Opens the customer record — sees that the same address had a kitchen rough-in last year. Knows what's behind the wall. Diagnoses a partial blockage in the trap. Quotes the repair on the tablet.

  3. 3

    Approval and repair in one visit

    Customer signs the approval link, plumber clears the line. Total time on site: 45 minutes. Invoice generates, customer pays by ACH or card right there.

  4. 4

    New construction rough-in jobs run in parallel

    Bath addition for a different customer starts Monday. Different job, different pipeline stage. Same workspace. Plumber sees their week — three service calls Tuesday, rough-in Wednesday and Thursday.

  5. 5

    Warranty visits stay on the original job

    Six months later the original homeowner reports a slow drain again. Open the same job. The previous fix is in the notes. The new visit is logged as a warranty event under the same job — no charge if within the warranty window.

  6. 6

    Quarterly water-heater inspections

    Customers on the maintenance plan get a quarterly inspection visit auto-scheduled. The plumber arrives, runs the checklist on the tablet, photographs the heater, submits. Customer gets a report by email.

Common questions

Questions plumbing ask

Does it handle both service work and new construction?
Yes. Both job types live in the same workspace but flow through different pipeline stages. Service calls go Lead → Estimated → Repaired → Paid in hours. New construction goes through phases like rough-in, top-out, trim, final inspection.
Can I bill emergency rates differently?
Yes. Define an emergency or after-hours rate in your settings. When a visit happens outside business hours, the labor line item picks up the emergency rate automatically. The invoice itemizes it so the customer sees why.
What about parts inventory?
Light inventory tracking — common parts (P-traps, supply lines, fittings) live in the parts catalog with prices. Heavier inventory management with stock counts isn't built in; most plumbing shops we talk to track stock in their supplier's portal or a separate spreadsheet.
Quote for repair vs. replace?
Send a single approval link with two line items: 'Repair the leak — $X' and 'Replace the water heater — $Y'. The customer picks which option to approve. Whichever one they sign becomes the job scope and the basis for the invoice.
