Plumbing

Estimates, invoices, and payments built for plumbing contractors.

You are under the house, not behind a desk. Your software should work that fast.

Plumbing moves between emergencies and planned work. One day you are swapping a water heater on a service call, the next you are roughing in a whole house. You need to get estimates out fast, bill at the right milestones, and not lose track of what is owed — all from your phone or truck.

Jobkore was built by a licensed contractor who needed software that works the way trades actually work. Not a project management suite with features you will never open. Just estimates, invoices, change orders, and payments — built for how plumbing jobs actually flow.

Estimates organized the way plumbing jobs are scoped

A repipe is not one line item. You have rough-in, fixtures, drain work, maybe a water heater — each with different materials and labor. Jobkore lets you organize estimates into sections with line items, descriptions, quantities, and rates so the client understands what they are paying for at each stage.

For a bathroom remodel, you separate rough-in from finish and fixture install. For a whole-house repipe, you break it down by floor or system. The client gets a clear picture of scope instead of a single lump number, and you look professional doing it.

Invoice the deposit, the rough-in, and the final

Plumbing jobs almost always bill in stages. You collect a deposit to order materials, invoice after rough-in passes inspection, and bill the final when fixtures are set and everything is tested. Trying to manage that in a spreadsheet or a text thread is a recipe for missed payments.

Jobkore lets you create multiple invoices against the same estimate and track what has been billed versus what is outstanding. You always know where you stand on a job — no mental math, no scrolling through old texts to figure out if the rough-in draw was paid.

Hank AI turns your walkthrough into an estimate

You crawl under the house, take photos of the existing copper or cast iron, note the fixture count and access points. Hank AI reads your notes and photos and organizes everything into structured estimate sections — rough-in, fixtures, drain work, water heater. You review, price it, and send.

For a plumber running three or four bids a week, Hank cuts the time between walkthrough and estimate from an hour to minutes. The faster you get it in front of the homeowner, the better your close rate.

Get paid online without extra fees

Your client gets a link, pays with a credit card or bank transfer, and the money hits your account. No driving across town to pick up a check. No "I will Venmo you" that never shows up. Jobkore collects payments online through Stripe at their standard rate — Jobkore charges zero additional fees on top.

For service calls and smaller jobs, online payment means you can close out the invoice the same day. For bigger projects with multiple draws, every payment is tracked against the estimate so you always know exactly what is outstanding.

One dashboard for your whole operation

Revenue this month, outstanding balances, overdue invoices, estimates waiting for approval — all in one place. Whether you are a one-truck shop or running a crew, you know exactly where your business stands without logging into three different apps.

Common questions.

Plumbers use estimating software like Jobkore to organize bids into sections — rough-in, fixtures, drain work, water heater — with line items, descriptions, and rates. Jobkore lets you build detailed estimates from your phone, attach photos, and send them to clients professionally.
With Jobkore, plumbers set a deposit on the estimate to cover materials, then create an invoice and record payments after rough-in inspection and again when fixtures are set. For added scope, each change order gets its own invoice. You always know what has been billed and what is outstanding.
Yes. When scope changes mid-job — rotten subfloor under a tub, an extra fixture the client wants added — you create a change order in Jobkore. It is a separate document with its own approval, signature, and invoice, tied to the original estimate. Clear paper trail, no disputes.
No. Jobkore charges zero additional fees on payment processing. Your clients pay through Stripe at their standard rate (2.9% + $0.30 per transaction). No platform fees on top.
