Every figure on this page is computed from the inputs you enter, by the method stated below it.

Plumbing invoice apps are judged on one moment: the tech at the customer's door, job done, producing the invoice from the tasks and the parts with the customer's signature and the payment taken before the truck leaves. The app that needs the office to finish the invoice has missed the moment. The plumbing invoice software on this site builds the invoice from the price book, free and without an account; RoughInDesk Pro sends it, takes the card and files it against the property.

Built from the tasks, priced from the book
The invoice is the tasks done on the job, each at the price book's flat rate, plus the parts used at the book's marked-up cost. The tech picks the tasks; the app does the arithmetic. The invoice software on this site does exactly that from your book, so the number on the invoice is the number the estimate promised.
Signed and paid at the door
The customer signs on the phone, the card is taken or the check is recorded, and the receipt is emailed before the tech is back in the truck. Pro takes the payment and files the signed invoice against the property; the free tool prints the invoice for the customer to sign.
Filed against the property, not just the customer
The invoice is part of the property's history: what was done, what was found, what the tech recommended and the customer declined. That is where the next job comes from. Pro keeps it there with the equipment record and the agreement.
The apps and what they cost
From the vendors' own pricing pages: Tradify lists Lite at $47, Pro at $51 and Plus at $61 per user per month; Jobber lists Core at $49 per month for one user with additional users at $29 each; Housecall Pro lists Basic at $59 per month billed annually or $79 monthly. RoughInDesk Pro is $47 per month for the whole crew. The free invoice builder on this site is the part of that most small shops actually need; the paid part is the record and the payment.

Plumbing invoice apps: common questions
Is there a free plumbing invoice app? The plumbing invoice software on this site builds the invoice from your price book with no account and no card. Pro adds the signature capture, the card payment and the record against the property.
Can the customer pay on the spot? With Pro, yes: card on the phone at the door. The free tool produces the invoice for payment by whatever means you already take.
Should the invoice show the flat rate or the hours? The flat rate. The customer agreed a price for the task; showing hours invites a negotiation about how long it took.
