Quote Parts. Fix It. Invoice Before You Leave.
Software Built for Plumbing Contractors
Price up parts from a searchable price book, invoice from your phone before you leave the job, and track exactly what materials were used on every callout. Built for plumbers who run four jobs a day and don't have time for paperwork.
Plumbers lose money in two ways: jobs they forget to invoice and materials they forget to charge. When you're running four callouts a day and keeping track of parts in your head, both happen regularly. The invoice pile builds up. The end of the week is admin instead of time off.
AxiomBlue fixes this by making it fast to do the right thing on-site. Your plumber logs the parts they used from a searchable price book, marks the job done, and the invoice is ready to send before they're back in the van. Time and materials are already on it. No typing up job cards later. No guessing what was used on Thursday's burst-pipe call.
- Searchable parts and materials price book on the mobile app
- On-site invoicing: invoice before leaving the customer's house
- Actual materials logged against each job, visible in job costing
- Apprentice and licensed plumber time tracked separately
- Full job and invoice history per customer and property
How AxiomBlue runs a plumbing business
A plumbing business runs on callouts, parts, and invoices. AxiomBlue handles all three, from the moment the job is booked to the invoice paid in the customer's driveway.
Price Parts Without Calling the Office
Your price book lives in the mobile app. Search for any fitting, valve, or material, tap to add it to the job, and the price comes from your book automatically. Quote accurately on-site without phoning anyone for prices.
Time Tracked as the Job Happens
Your plumbers clock on when they arrive and off when they're done. Apprentice hours are recorded separately. Time logs automatically feed the invoice. No more trying to recall how long the job actually took.
Invoice Before Leaving the Job
Once the job is done, generate the invoice from the mobile app. Time, materials, callout fee: all already there from the job record. Send it before you drive away. The customer pays on the spot or receives it by email.
From paper job cards to a system that invoices itself
Plumbing businesses on paper job cards consistently undercharge for materials, forget to invoice some jobs entirely, and spend Friday evenings catching up on billing. AxiomBlue closes all three gaps.
| Paper job cards and manual invoicing | AxiomBlue Built for plumbing contractors | |
|---|---|---|
| Parts pricing on-site | Memory or a phone call to the office | ✓ Searchable price book on the mobile app |
| Materials tracking | Written on a job card, often incomplete | ✓ Logged on-site, linked to the invoice |
| On-site invoicing | Done later from the office | ✓ Invoice generated and sent before leaving |
| Apprentice time tracking | Estimated or forgotten | ✓ Separate clock-in/out per team member |
| Customer job history | Paper files or memory | ✓ Every job and invoice per property, searchable |
| Job profitability | No visibility until accountant | ✓ Cost vs. charge visible before you invoice |
What AxiomBlue does for plumbing contractors
From dispatch to invoice. Here is what AxiomBlue handles for a plumbing business running residential and commercial jobs.
Job Management and Dispatch
Book callouts, assign plumbers, and see every active job in the scheduling calendar. Your plumbers get notified instantly when a new job is assigned and see site details on their phone.
Parts and Materials Price Book
Store every part, fitting, and material with your pricing. Searchable from the mobile app on-site. Add to the job and the price comes from your book, consistently, every time.
Time Tracking per Team Member
Clock-on and clock-off on every job per person. Licensed plumber and apprentice rates tracked separately. Feeds directly into invoicing and job costing without any manual entry.
Photo Documentation
Plumbers take photos of the problem before and after the fix. Attached to the job, linked to the invoice. Evidence for warranty queries and insurance claims.
On-Site Quoting and Approval
Quote larger jobs on-site from the mobile app. Client sees the price and approves it before your plumber starts. Digital approval means no disputes about what was agreed.
On-Site Invoicing
Invoice from the app the moment the job is done. Time and materials already filled in. Client pays on the spot or gets the invoice by email. Cash flow improves immediately.
The materials you forget to charge are the margin you're leaving behind
Most plumbers know they're undercharging. They just don't know by how much. A few fittings here, a bit of thread tape there, the extra half hour the job actually took. On paper job cards, those details disappear. Over a week of callouts, the lost margin adds up to a lot of work done for free.
AxiomBlue makes it easy to record everything on the day, on the job, while you're still on-site. It takes thirty seconds to add the parts you used from the price book. The time logs itself when you clock in and out. The invoice builds itself as the job progresses. By the time you're packing up the van, the invoice is ready to send.
For commercial plumbing and bigger jobs, the quoting and variation tools mean you're always working from an approved scope. When the client adds a scope change, you raise a variation, price it, and get approval before the extra work starts. The final invoice reflects exactly what was agreed. No arguments, no unpaid extras.
