Plumbing Job Management Software that runs
the job, not the paperwork

Chase the call-out fee while you're still under the house.

Plumbing job management software for call-outs, quoting, scheduling, dispatch and payment reminders. Keep the board moving while you're on site.

What plumbers actually use it for

  • Emergency call-outs straight onto the board

  • Quotes and estimates from a two-line brief

  • Invoices and payment reminders, automatically

How a plumber job runs in Foreman

Plumbing work arrives two ways: the urgent call-out that has to go on the board now, and the quoted job that needs a price before anyone picks up a tool. Foreman runs both from the same job record, so the enquiry, the quote, the visit, the photos and the invoice never live in different places.

  1. Step 1

    The call comes in

    A burst flexi hose at 7am becomes a job in seconds — from the phone, a web enquiry form, or the AI receptionist if you're under a house. The client, site address and notes sit on one record from the first minute.

  2. Step 2

    Put it on the board

    Drag the call-out onto a plumber on the dispatch board. Route-aware scheduling shows who is already nearby, so the emergency slots between booked work instead of wrecking the day.

  3. Step 3

    Quote the bigger job

    For hot water replacements, reroutes and bathroom rough-ins, send a quote built from your own price book. Snap photos of the job and let the AI draft the line items from your catalogue, then check and send it.

  4. Step 4

    Do the work, record the proof

    The plumber sees the job on the mobile app, clocks on at the site, runs the checklist and takes before-and-after photos — even with no signal under the floor. Everything syncs when they're back in range.

  5. Step 5

    Invoice before you leave

    Turn the job into an invoice on site, add any extra parts, and send a payment link. Polite automatic reminders chase it so you don't have to, and paid invoices sync to Xero or QuickBooks.

Problems plumbers tell us about — and the fix

Emergency call-outs blow up the day's schedule
See the whole crew on one board, slot the urgent job with whoever is closest, and let the rest of the day's clients get an updated time.
Call-out fees and extra parts never make it onto the invoice
Parts and labour go on the job as they happen, and the invoice is built from the job — not from memory at the end of the week.
Quotes go out and nobody follows up
Quote chasing sends friendly follow-ups on a schedule you set, and stops the moment the client accepts.
Compliance paperwork lives in the ute
Attach photos, checklists and forms to the job itself, so the record for that site is there next time — or when someone asks for it.

Plumbing Job Management Software: common questions

Can I quote and invoice plumbing jobs from my phone?

Yes. The Foreman mobile app lets you build a quote from your price book, turn an accepted quote into a job, and invoice from site with a payment link.

Does Foreman handle emergency call-outs as well as booked work?

Yes. Urgent jobs go straight onto the dispatch board alongside scheduled work, and route-aware scheduling shows which plumber is closest.

Does it work under a house with no signal?

The mobile app keeps working offline — clock-ins, photos and notes are saved on the phone and sync when the connection comes back.

Will it sync with my accounting software?

Foreman connects to Xero and QuickBooks so invoices and payments don't have to be entered twice.
