Frequently Asked Questions
How does plumbing scheduling software handle emergency service calls?
Business Genie helps plumbing companies balance scheduled work with emergency response. You can block "emergency slots" in your daily schedule—open time reserved for same-day urgent calls. When an emergency comes in (burst pipe, no hot water, sewage backup), you see available techs and can dispatch immediately. For non-emergency calls, customers can self-schedule through your online booking page for the next available appointment. The system prevents double-booking and automatically adjusts travel time between jobs.
Can I schedule recurring plumbing maintenance automatically?
Yes. Many plumbing companies offer recurring services—annual water heater flushes, quarterly drain treatments, backflow device testing, septic pumping schedules. In Business Genie, you set up the service interval (every 6 months, annually, etc.) and the system auto-generates appointments when they're due. Customers receive reminders to confirm their slot, and invoices generate automatically. This turns one-time customers into recurring revenue without manual tracking.
How do plumbers see their schedule in the field?
Every plumber gets the Business Genie mobile app. They see their daily job list with appointment times, customer contact info, service address, job description, and the complete service history at that location. The app shows what work was done previously, any notes from past visits, and photos of the plumbing system. Turn-by-turn navigation gets them to each job. They can mark jobs as started, completed, or on-hold and add notes for the next visit.
Does Business Genie scheduling work for multi-day plumbing projects?
Absolutely. For larger plumbing projects—bathroom remodels, new construction rough-ins, re-pipes—you can block multiple consecutive days on a plumber's schedule. The system tracks project milestones (rough-in, inspection, finish work) and lets you schedule different team members for different phases. You can also schedule related jobs like the inspector callback or fixture installation as separate appointments linked to the main project.
