Quoting takes too long

In a hipages survey, 77% of tradies said quoting is one of their most time-consuming admin jobs. A quote that goes out sooner is more likely to be won.

Missed calls while you're on the tools

You can't answer when you're under a sink. A missed call that gets a quick text back, asking for the address and the problem, often becomes a job instead of a lost one.

Chasing payment

Invoices go out late and are paid late. Sending the invoice when the job is done, with automatic polite reminders, keeps cash flowing without awkward phone calls.

Compliance paperwork

In Victoria, plumbers must give a customer a compliance certificate within 5 days of finishing certain work. We can prefill the details and remind you, but we never sign or lodge anything for you.
