The emergency goes to whoever answers first
A homeowner with water on the floor calls three plumbers. If your dispatcher is on hold with a tech to find out who's free, the job is already gone.
Plumbing software that gets you to the leak first, and paid before you leave
When there's water on the floor, the plumber who answers first gets the job. FieldNexus is plumbing software for residential and commercial plumbing companies: dispatch, work orders, quotes, invoicing, service contracts, and a plumber app that works under the house. It runs a two-van shop and a multi-crew commercial department alike.

Sound like your Monday morning?
Plumbing companies rarely lose money on the wrench work. They lose it on the phone, on the truck, and in the paperwork after.
Parts leave the van and never reach the invoice
Fittings, a shutoff valve, a wax ring, another tube of sealant. Used on site, forgotten by Friday, and quietly eaten as margin.
Water heater quotes die overnight
“I'll send you a price tonight” gives the homeowner all evening to call two more companies. The install goes to whoever closed on the spot.
One burst pipe, from ring to paid
An after-hours emergency when the office, the van, and the books run on the same system.
- 9:42 PM
9:42 PM
Burst pipe booked
The homeowner books through the form on your website, or your on-call plumber takes the call. Address and problem are captured up front.
How it works - 9:44 PM

Closest plumber dispatched
The dispatch board suggests the nearest available tech. One tap puts the job on their phone, and the customer gets a text with an ETA.
How it works - 10:15 PM
10:15 PM
On site, already briefed
Past visits, notes, and the equipment at the address are in the app before the tech walks through the door.
How it works - 10:50 PM
10:50 PM
Fixed, with options on the table
Leak repaired, photos taken, parts logged. The tech quotes the repipe or the new shutoff as good-better-best options on one screen.

Paid before the van pulls away
The work order becomes an invoice in one tap. Card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay on site, synced to QuickBooks or Xero.
How it works
Plumbing business software, built around the call
Replace the whiteboard, the carbon-copy invoice book, and the separate card reader with one system for the office and the van.
Plumbing dispatch software that finds the closest plumber in seconds
See every plumber, every job, and every status on one live board. FieldNexus suggests the best tech by skills, location, and workload. Drag to assign, and the job lands on their phone with the customer's ETA text already sent.
- Emergencies slot into a full day without a round of phone calls
- Live status from en route to on site to done
- Automatic confirmations, reminders, and on-the-way texts
- A waitlist that fills cancellations before the gap costs you
Quote the water heater in the driveway, not tomorrow
Techs build good-better-best options on site from your saved price lists. The homeowner signs on their phone and you take the deposit before leaving. Quotes that aren't signed get a follow-up automatically.
- Repair-or-replace options on one quote
- Digital signatures and deposits on site
- Accepted quotes become work orders automatically
- Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a payment link by text

Running a commercial or multi-crew operation?
We'll walk through your contracts, sites, and crews, and scope guided setup for your team.
Every building under one account
A property manager with 40 buildings is one customer with 40 properties, each with its own equipment, service history, and documents.
Contract work that schedules itself
Backflow tests, grease trap service, and preventive maintenance run on agreements that book the visits, bill on repeat, and flag renewals before they lapse.
Proof of work facility managers ask for
Required checklists, before-and-after photos, and signatures on every job, stored on the property and searchable when the client or an inspector asks.
Multi-day jobs run as projects
Repipes and fit-outs get phases, assigned crews, materials tracked against the estimate, and a profitability report when the job closes.
Billing that fits commercial clients
Deposits, staged invoices, and partial payments for larger jobs. Clients see their history, documents, and open invoices in a branded portal, and send new requests there.
Control as the team grows
Role-based access, skills-based dispatch across crews, manager-approved timesheets, and guided implementation for larger teams.
Crawl space? Basement?
No signal, no problem.
Plumbing happens below ground level, right where the bars run out. The FieldNexus app keeps working offline, so your plumbers finish the job, capture the signature, and move on. The office catches up the moment they're back in range.
Keep working with no bars
Update job status, work through checklists, log parts, take photos, and capture signatures without waiting for a signal.
Nothing is lost
Every change is saved on the phone and queued, so a dead zone never means a missing ticket or a second trip.
Syncs on its own
When the phone reconnects, queued work syncs automatically and the office sees it. No one re-types anything.
Stop leaving parts off the invoice
Everything logged on the work order lands on the bill. See it in a 30-minute demo.
Switching is easier than you think
Running in a day
Most teams schedule their first real jobs within a day of signing up.

What is plumbing software?
Plumbing software runs the business side of a plumbing company in one system: booking and scheduling calls, dispatching plumbers, work orders, quotes, invoicing and payments, service agreements, and customer records. FieldNexus covers all of these, with a mobile app for plumbers in the field.
Can FieldNexus handle emergency plumbing calls?
Yes. The live dispatch board shows every plumber's availability and job status in real time and suggests the best tech by location and skills, so an emergency can be inserted and assigned in under a minute. The plumber gets it on their phone and the customer gets an automatic ETA text.
Can plumbers quote and take payment on site?
Yes. Plumbers build quotes in the app, including good-better-best options on one quote, and customers sign digitally on the spot. You can take a deposit, and when the job is done the work order becomes an invoice in one tap. Customers pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a payment link by text or email.
Does FieldNexus track parts and materials on plumbing jobs?
Yes. Plumbers log the parts and materials used on each work order, and they're added to the invoice automatically, so nothing used on the job goes unbilled.
Is there a plumber app for technicians?
Yes. The FieldNexus app is available on iOS and Android. Plumbers see their scheduled jobs and customer history, update job status, log parts, capture photos and signatures, build quotes, collect payment, and clock in and out.
Does the app work offline in basements and crawl spaces?
Yes. The app keeps working without a connection, so plumbers can update jobs, add notes and photos, and capture signatures with no signal. Changes are saved on the phone and sync automatically when the connection returns.
Can customers book plumbing service online?
Yes. Embed the FieldNexus booking form on your website and customers can book 24/7. They choose the service and a time and enter their address, and the job lands in your schedule. You can require a deposit at booking to cut no-shows.
Does FieldNexus work for commercial plumbing companies?
Yes. A commercial customer can have many properties under one account, each with its own equipment, service history, and documents. Recurring work like backflow testing and preventive maintenance runs on service agreements, multi-day jobs run as projects with phases and job costing, and larger jobs can be billed with deposits, staged invoices, and partial payments. Clients see their history and invoices in a branded customer portal.
Does FieldNexus support plumbing service agreements?
Yes. Build agreement templates for your plans, have customers sign digitally, and FieldNexus schedules the included visits, bills on repeat, and sends renewal reminders before the agreement expires.
Does FieldNexus work with QuickBooks?
Yes. Invoices and payments sync automatically with QuickBooks and Xero, so your books stay current without double entry.
How much does plumbing software cost?
FieldNexus pricing scales with your team size and the features you need, so a two-van shop doesn't pay for enterprise tools. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and a demo is the fastest way to get an exact quote.
Is FieldNexus right for both small shops and larger plumbing companies?
Yes. Owner-operators use it to keep scheduling, quoting, and invoicing out of their evenings. Larger plumbing companies use skills-based dispatch across crews, service agreements, project tracking, manager-approved timesheets, role-based access, and reporting to run residential and commercial work from one office. Larger teams can add guided implementation for dispatch rules, integrations, and custom forms.
How long does it take to get set up?
Most teams schedule their first jobs within a day. If you are moving from spreadsheets or another tool, our team provides import templates and checklists, and larger companies can add guided implementation.
