Platform Features
From first call to final invoice — RevoField covers every step of the job lifecycle in one unified platform built for trade professionals.
Explore all featuresMonday morning. You have 14 jobs to schedule across 3 plumbers. Marcus handles water heaters. Priya does drains and re-pipes. James is your sump pump and leak guy. You drag each job to the right tech, check for conflicts, and the whole week is set in 10 minutes. Every tech sees their schedule on their phone before they leave the house.
These are not minor annoyances. Each one directly costs you revenue, customer trust, or both.
Your schedule lives on a whiteboard or a shared spreadsheet. One tech calls in sick and you spend the next hour calling customers, reshuffling jobs, and hoping you don't miss anyone. Digital scheduling lets you drag those jobs to another tech in seconds and automatically notifies affected customers.
Two jobs assigned to the same plumber at the same time. The second customer waits, gets angry, and leaves a bad review. Your tech rushes through the first job to make up time. Nobody wins. Conflict detection catches overlaps before they happen — every time.
A plumber finishes a drain call at 10:30 and the next job is at 1:00. That two-and-a-half hour gap is revenue you will never recover. A visual calendar with real time slots makes gaps obvious so you can fill them with service calls, follow-ups, or short jobs before the day is over.
You walk into the office at 7 AM and figure out who is doing what. Techs sit in the parking lot waiting for assignments. A shared calendar means tomorrow's schedule is already set by the time you leave today — and your techs see it on their phones the night before.
No training manual. No onboarding consultant. Here is the actual workflow your office runs every day.
A customer calls in, submits a request through the portal, or a recurring maintenance plan triggers automatically. The job lands on the scheduling board with the customer name, address, and job type already attached.
Switch between day, week, or month view. Each plumber has their own row. You see who is booked, who has gaps, and who is off. No phone calls to check — it is all on one screen.
Pick up the job and drop it on the right tech and time slot. If there is already a job in that slot, the system flags the conflict before you save. No double-bookings, no guessing.
The moment you assign or move a job, the tech gets a push notification on the mobile app. They see the job details, customer address, and any notes — even if they are already on the road.
When the job is scheduled, the customer receives a confirmation email with their appointment window. No manual emails, no phone tag — the customer knows when to expect the plumber.
Week view showing three plumbers with color-coded jobs. Service calls, installs, and emergencies — all visible at a glance.
Four scheduling scenarios that plumbing companies deal with every week — and how the calendar handles each one.
Fill every 1-2 hour slot with service calls — drain clears, faucet repairs, toilet replacements, leak diagnostics. The calendar shows open slots across all techs so your dispatcher can book incoming calls into the first available window without flipping through pages or calling anyone.
Water heater installs, whole-house re-pipes, and bathroom rough-ins span multiple days. Block a tech for the full duration so nobody accidentally schedules a service call on top of a re-pipe. The calendar shows multi-day jobs as a continuous block across the week view.
A burst pipe call comes in at 10 AM. Open the calendar, see which tech is closest and finishing soonest, drag the emergency into their first available slot. Their existing afternoon job shifts down automatically. The displaced customer gets a notification with the updated arrival window.
Quarterly backflow tests, annual water heater flushes, monthly sump pump checks for commercial clients. Set the recurrence once and jobs auto-populate on the calendar every cycle. No manual re-entry, no missed appointments, no lapsed maintenance contracts.
ServiceTitan is the enterprise choice for plumbing scheduling. It handles complex dispatch rules, GPS tracking, and call booking flows — but it starts above $300/month, requires weeks of onboarding, and locks you into an annual contract. If you have 20+ trucks and a full-time dispatcher, ServiceTitan might be worth the overhead. For a 2-to-10 tech plumbing company, most of that complexity goes unused while the bill keeps coming.
Jobber offers a cleaner scheduling interface at a lower entry price, but it charges per user. Once you add three or four techs, the monthly cost climbs quickly. Jobber also lacks built-in conflict detection — you can accidentally drop two jobs on the same plumber at the same time without a warning. That is fine for a solo operator, but it becomes a real problem the moment you are scheduling for a crew.
Google Calendar is free and familiar, but it is not connected to anything. Your calendar does not know about your customer records, your invoices, or your dispatch. You cannot drag a job from an incoming call to a tech's schedule. You cannot send the customer a confirmation with an arrival window. RevoField gives you a shared drag-and-drop calendar with conflict detection, tech availability, mobile sync, and customer notifications — all connected to the rest of your plumbing operation at $49/month flat, unlimited users.
