AI for Plumbing

AI & automation for plumbing & drain operators.

Plumbing shops live on schedule density and quote-to-cash speed. The good ones in our market are running 3-8 trucks, doing $1-5M a year, and the back-office is one or two people deep — usually the owner's spouse or a long-tenured admin. That's the seat where automation pays back fastest, because every hour of admin friction is an hour of dispatch they didn't run. Our work for plumbing operators is almost always about closing the loop between the schedule, the truck, and the invoice.

Who this is for

The plumbing operators we work with

  • Owner-operator shops doing $500K-$5M annual revenue
  • Trade businesses where the owner still answers some of the phones
  • Multi-truck operations using Housecall Pro, Jobber, or ServiceTitan
  • Shops that want help with intake + follow-up, not 'rip out our existing system'
Where you're losing money

The four highest-cost workflows in plumbing

Missed after-hours calls go to voicemail and never get returned
Cost: 20-30% of inbound emergency leads — typically $200-$800 per missed job
Quotes sit in the office instead of getting to the customer same-day
Cost: Quotes delivered within 4 hours close ~50% more often than ones that wait 24+ hours
Tech onboarding takes a senior plumber away from billable work for 2-3 weeks
Cost: Roughly $3K-$8K in lost crew capacity per new hire
Invoicing happens manually 1-2 days after the job, slowing AR
Cost: Days of float, plus dropped collections when invoices fall through cracks

Case study

MJ Mechanical (North Texas)

Existing Squarespace 1-pager wasn't ranking and barely converted. We rebuilt as a 9-page SEO-optimized site with structured service pages, schema markup, and a clear conversion path.

Outcome

Cleaner conversion funnel, indexable service pages, room to layer in intake automation as the business scales.

Stack we typically build around

We integrate — we don't replace

  • Housecall Pro or Jobber (most common at $1-3M)
  • ServiceTitan (at $3M+)
  • QuickBooks Online for accounting
  • Twilio / OpenPhone for SMS
  • Google Workspace or Microsoft 365
Frequently asked

Common questions from plumbing owners

Will you make me switch off Housecall Pro / Jobber / ServiceTitan?
No. We build automations that connect to those systems through their APIs. Keep what's working; we add the layer that ties it to your phone, email, and accounting.
What if my office manager isn't tech-y?
Most of our deliverables run in the background — they fire automatically based on what's already happening in your system. The 'interface' for your office manager is usually the same one they already use, just with better defaults.
How much do these projects cost?
Surgical tools typically run $500-$5,000 one-time. Larger integrations $5-15K. We don't price retainers by tier — we scope each engagement and quote a fixed number.
What's the audit cost?
$500 QuickScan, refundable if we can't identify savings or revenue gains that exceed the audit fee. Most plumbing audits find $20-50K+ of annual recovery on the table.
