The plumbing day in a tech’s pocket.
The field app for plumbing shops, native on iOS and Android at launch: the next stop full screen, Arrive in one tap, the book and the invoice on the same phone, and $0 per tech, because the crew is never a seat count.
The work
The days the phone has to run.
01
Emergency call-outs
Any hour. The call becomes a job with the address, the history, and whoever is on call, not a voicemail to decode at 6 a.m.
02
Service routes
Drains, fixtures, repairs. The day’s route lives on the board, not on a whiteboard photographed at 7 a.m.
03
Install jobs
Water heaters and repipes, quoted from the book, scheduled around the service day instead of against it.
Why it matters
The argument, in three rows.
The whole job, one screen
The next stop full screen: the address, the history, the checklist, the book. Arrive is a thumb tap, not a radio call.
Paid before the truck leaves
Flat-rate to estimate to invoice on the same device, with card and signature capture on site, and Tap to Pay when it lands.
The office sees it live
Photos, signatures, and payments appear on the board the moment they happen. No envelope of paper riding home.
Plumbing · Field app
Built where the work happens.
Every screen answers to one test: does it hold up in a crawlspace, on a ladder, with one hand.
The old way
What the call to the office costs.
The 2 a.m. call goes to a competitor
An emergency without a clear answer and an ETA calls the next name in the search results.
The quote takes the evening
Techs rebuild the same water-heater quote by hand instead of pulling it from a book.
The invoice waits for the office
Work finished Tuesday gets billed Friday and paid whenever. Collect in the driveway instead.
Up close
How it runs.
01
Before the visit
Customer and equipment history load with the job, so the tech walks in knowing what was found last time.
02
On site
Checklists, photos, and notes attach to the job as the work happens. Documentation as a side effect, not a chore.
03
Built for real field conditions
Glove-sized targets, glare-tested contrast, and a design that assumes a crawlspace, not a desk.
Straight answers
What plumbing shops ask.
What does Thorbis cost for plumbing shops?
$99 per company per month, unlimited people, every module as it releases. Plus metered usage. $15 included each month. Nothing on this page is a tier.
Is the field app a separate module?
No. The field app is in Core, on the same record as the board, the estimate, and the invoice, so the plumbing job never leaves the system it started in.
Is it built for plumbing shops specifically?
The record is the same for every trade; what changes is the work on it. For plumbing shops that means emergency call-outs, service routes, and install jobs, which is the day this page is written around, and the sample rows on it are plumbing jobs.
Does each tech cost extra?
No. The field app is included for unlimited people. A new tech changes the crew, not the software bill.
iPhone or Android?
Both, native, in the App Store and Google Play at launch. A store delay moves the launch; we will not ship a web wrapper and call it native. A tech can switch devices without losing their place.
Can techs see company financials?
Only if you permit it. Role-based access keeps the money views with the people you choose.
