NexusCRM for Plumbers & Plumbing Companies

The plumbing CRM that quotes before you leave the driveway

NexusCRM is a plumbing CRM that lets you quote a water heater swap by voice before you pull out of the driveway, get same-day e-acceptance, schedule the job, and invoice automatically — with every tech logging hours and receipts from the truck. Flat $425/month CAD, unlimited users, all AI included.

FORGED IN THE FIELD — NexusCRM was built inside a real GTA contracting business and battle-tested in daily operations before it was ever offered for sale. Service-call speed is the whole point.

Sound familiar?

Where does a plumbing company's day actually go?

Not down the drain — into the truck cab and the kitchen table. The wrench work pays; the paperwork around it is what leaks.

01

The 9 PM quote pile

You looked at the water heater at 2, the sump pump at 4:30, and the basement bathroom rough-in at 6. Now it's 9 PM and you're typing quotes at the kitchen table — and the water-heater customer already has two other numbers in their inbox.

02

Emergencies eat the schedule

A burst supply line in North York blows up Tuesday. The repipe gets bumped by group chat, one tech doesn't see the message, and the customer whose drain clear slid to Thursday hears about it when they call you.

03

Flat rates, fuzzy margins

The drain call you flat-rated ate three hours, a wrecked cutter blade, and a second visit. The supply-house receipts are in the glovebox. Which jobs made money last month? Nobody actually knows until tax time.

Plumbing scheduling and invoicing software, rebuilt around speed

How does NexusCRM fix it for plumbers?

It closes the gap between "done looking at it" and "customer accepted" to the same afternoon — then tracks every hour and every fitting until you know what the job really paid.

Quote in the driveway
  • Talk through the job on your phone — tank size, venting run, shutoffs, disposal — and get a priced draft quote
  • Line items priced from your own past water-heater, drain, and repipe quotes, not generic book rates
  • Multi-option quotes: mid-efficiency tank vs. power-vent vs. tankless, side by side
  • One-tap online acceptance from the customer's phone — signed snapshot locked with timestamp and IP
Dispatch & schedule
  • Drag the burst-pipe emergency into today; the planned work shifts visibly, not by rumour
  • Every tech's assignments sync to their own Google Calendar automatically
  • Day-before reminders go to customers without anyone remembering to send them
  • Service calls and multi-day jobs — repipes, backwater valves, rough-ins — on one board
From the truck
  • Mobile PWA field view on any phone — no app store, no per-device licence
  • Techs log hours against the job as they close the call
  • Photograph the supply-house receipt; AI itemizes it straight onto the job's costs
  • Before/after photos land in the job's media library and the customer portal
Know your margin
  • Live per-job P&L — labour, materials, expenses, recoverable HST — while the job is still open
  • Four crew pay models: hourly, salary, per-job, or percentage — labour costed correctly either way
  • AI Bid Advisor checks every quote against your price sheets and up to 25 similar completed jobs
  • Zero double entry: acceptance auto-creates the invoice, the project, and the schedule slot

AI in the field

What does voice-to-quote look like on a service call?

You finish the assessment, sit in the truck, and talk for a minute. NexusCRM transcribes it, matches the customer, and drafts the quote from your own quoting history — priced the way you actually price.

  • Grounded in your numbers — drafts pull from your historical quotes, not a generic price book
  • Bid Advisor sanity check — margin compared against your price sheets and up to 25 similar completed jobs
  • Send before you pull away — e-acceptance link goes out while the customer is still thinking about you
  • Confirmed and logged — every AI action runs with your confirmation and a full audit trail

Same-day acceptance auto-creates the invoice, the job, and the schedule slot — no retyping.

A day on NexusCRM

What does a plumbing shop's day look like on NexusCRM?

Same calls, same trucks — minus the retyping, the group-chat dispatch, and the 9 PM quote pile.

7:10 AM — The board is set

Every tech opens their phone to today's calls: two drain clears in East York, a water-heater assessment in North York, an afternoon rough-in inspection. Addresses, notes, and history attached — no morning phone tree.

11:40 AM — Emergency lands, schedule flexes

A burst supply line comes in through the website form and hits the pipeline with source attribution. Dispatch drags it into today; the bumped drain clear shifts, calendars re-sync, and the customer gets an automatic update.

2:15 PM — Quote from the driveway

After the water-heater assessment, the tech records a one-minute recap. NexusCRM drafts the quote from your past jobs; the office reviews and sends it with an e-acceptance link before the truck is off the street.

4:30 PM — Customer taps Accept

The homeowner accepts the power-vent option on their phone. Invoice, project, and schedule slot are created instantly; the deposit invoice and portal link go out by email; the install crew is notified.

6:00 PM — You see the real margin

Hours logged from the truck and photographed supply-house receipts are already on each job's P&L. You close the day knowing which calls made money — not guessing at year-end.

Which NexusCRM plan is right for plumbers?

Pro is the fit for most plumbing companies — it's the tier with voice-to-quote, receipt AI, and live job P&L, which is exactly where a service-call business wins or loses.

  • Voice-to-quote + Bid Advisor — quote the driveway assessment before you pull away
  • Receipt AI — glovebox full of supply-house receipts becomes itemized job costs
  • Live per-job P&L — see flat-rate calls that lose money while you can still fix the rate
  • Payroll & commissions — four pay models, self-serve "what am I owed" for techs
  • Field crew mobile views — every tech on the system at no extra cost

Solo or two-truck shop? Core at $295/month covers the full pipeline — leads, quotes, e-acceptance, invoicing, scheduling — and you can move up when you're ready.

Full breakdown on the pricing page.

What is the best CRM for plumbers in Canada?

It depends on your shop. If you want a big per-user SaaS marketplace, Jobber and Housecall Pro are established options. NexusCRM is the fit for plumbing companies that want one flat CAD price with unlimited techs, AI voice-to-quote from the truck, live per-job profitability, HST-native invoicing, payroll and commissions, and a dedicated private instance with Canadian hosting available — with every AI feature included rather than sold as an add-on. See how they stack up on the comparison page.

Can my plumbers use NexusCRM from the truck?

Yes. NexusCRM is a mobile PWA — it runs in the browser on any phone with no app-store install. Techs see their day's calls with addresses and job notes, log hours against the job, photograph supply-house receipts (AI itemizes them onto the job's costs), and add before/after photos from site. Role-based access means a tech sees their work, not your margins.

How does voice-to-quote work for plumbing jobs?

Before you pull away, record a short recap on your phone — "50-gallon power-vent swap, drain and dispose the old tank, new expansion tank, PVC venting out the side wall." NexusCRM transcribes it, matches the customer, and drafts a quote with priced line items grounded in your own historical quotes, not generic guesses. The AI Bid Advisor then checks the margin against your price sheets and up to 25 similar completed jobs. You review, adjust, and send it with one-tap online acceptance.

Can NexusCRM handle emergency calls and planned jobs together?

Yes — that mix is exactly what it's built for. Emergency calls come in through your website form or phone and land in the pipeline with source attribution; the dispatcher drops the burst-pipe call into today's schedule and the planned repipe shifts, with crew assignments synced to each tech's Google Calendar and day-before reminders sent automatically. Planned work — water heaters, repipes, rough-ins, backwater valves — runs through quotes, e-acceptance, and scheduled crews on the same board.

Does NexusCRM send SMS or take card payments in the driveway?

Not yet — SMS text messaging and online card payments are both on the roadmap, alongside QuickBooks Online sync. Today NexusCRM covers email automation with open and click tracking, one-tap online quote acceptance with immutable signed snapshots, payment schedules on invoices, HST-native branded invoice PDFs, and CSV exports for your bookkeeper.

Live in two weeks. Not two months.
