Jobber set up for plumbing service and maintenance, by someone who sells it.
Plumbing work has its own products, its own recurring rhythm, and its own ways to lose money in Jobber. We set up the account the way a plumbing dispatcher and estimator actually need it. It starts with a 10-minute call.
Three things we fix in most plumbing accounts
Every trade breaks Jobber in its own way. These are the ones we see most for plumbing companies.
The products list has every part ever used and no labor rates, so quotes take twenty minutes.
Jobs closed days after the work, so invoices go out late and net-30 turns into net-60.
No property notes for shutoff locations, so the emergency call takes an extra hour.
The line items a plumbing estimator should be picking from. Short, consistent units, real prices. Yours will look like this, with your numbers.
- Service call and diagnostic
- Hourly labor, approved rate
- Water heater replacement, per unit
- Drain jetting, per building
- Backflow test, per device
- Shutoff valve replacement
How the recurring work is built
Recurring annual jobs for backflow and jetting per property, plus a request form for dispatch and an approved rate card in the products list.
If you bill any management company or commercial account, this structure is the difference between one clean invoice and forty confusing ones. It is also what makes selling plumbing service and maintenance to property managers possible at scale.

Set up Jobber for multifamily and commercial accounts: parent clients and properties, per-property pricing, recurring visits, batch invoicing, and PM reports.
Read itHow should a plumbing company organize the Jobber products list for property management work?
A short list: service call, hourly labor at the approved rate, and the ten most common jobs as flat-rate line items. Parts go on as a single markup line, not a catalog. The estimator should build a quote in under two minutes.
Can Jobber batch invoices for one management company?
Yes. With the management company as the client and each building as a property, invoices can be batched per client so the accounts payable office gets one clean statement instead of forty emails.
How long does a Jobber setup take for plumbing companies?
A clean new setup takes one to two weeks. A cleanup of an active account takes two to four weeks because we work around your live schedule. Either way it starts with a short interview and a 10-minute call about your account.
What does Jobber consulting cost for a plumbing company?
The simple setup is a flat $800. Add-ons are flat priced from $100 each, so you build what you need and skip what you do not. A few items depend on the size of your account and are hourly at $200, with the typical range shown. You know the price before anything starts.
