Describe the observed issue
Record the fixture, location, symptoms, and diagnostic limits; distinguish confirmed repairs from concealed conditions.
Estimate software for plumbers
Write a plumbing estimate customers can follow.
A plumbing quote is easier to approve when the customer can see what is being repaired or installed, what access is needed, and how the work will be tested. WorkCraft AI gives solo plumbers and small shops one place to build and share that scope.

Details to confirm before sending
For repairs behind walls or under slabs, describe what is known and how additional work will be handled before it begins. Keep optional replacements separate from the required repair. WorkCraft AI helps plumbers prepare an itemized estimate, reuse common price book items, and share a proposal link from the job site.

Common questions
Separate confirmed work from unknown conditions
Should a plumbing quote include a diagnostic fee?
If you charge one, show it as a separate item and state what it covers. Use your own policy and rates.
How should I describe concealed damage?
Note what could not be inspected, set a clear approval process for added work, and avoid presenting an allowance as a guaranteed final cost.
