Been using Housecall Pro for a couple years now to handle my plumbing invoices, especially for those water heater swaps and PEX repipes. It auto-pulls in the materials like SharkBite fittings and sends digital invoices right after the job, which saves me from chasing paper checks. Out here in the Carolinas, customers expect quick billing on residential calls, so the QuickBooks integration keeps everything tidy for taxes. I set up recurring for my maintenance contracts on older cast iron systems too. NGL, the mobile app is a game-changer when you're knee-deep in a crawlspace. If you're solo like me, it's worth the $50/month to avoid the headache of manual tracking. Saw a post on r/Plumbing where someone swore by it for collections too.

ServiceTitan is jacking up prices on us little guys, forcing everyone into their ecosystem while they rake in the fees on every job.

Same here, been invoicing the old fashioned way for years and it's killing me on time.

Yeah, that paper trail BS is a nightmare when a customer disputes a drain clean charge.

Homeowners and their endless change orders on bathroom remodels are why I hate invoicing, always nickel and diming after the fact.

Customer called me at 2am because her invoice for the toilet install 'looked funny' in the app, turned out she just couldn't read her own email.
