ServiceBuilt for electrical

The service call
is the sales call.

Nobody books a panel upgrade off a billboard. They call because a breaker keeps tripping, and somewhere in that hour an electrician either explains what a sixty-year-old service is doing to their house, or he does not. The difference is a $180 ticket or a $4,000 one, and it is mostly a process problem.

No contracts. Ever. Month to month, cancel yourself in the app. No card to start, no demo call, no salesperson.

Troubleshooting to upgrade

Turning the diagnostic into a decision.

The tripping breaker, the dead outlets on one wall, the flicker when the AC starts — every one of those is a conversation about the service, and every one of them is usually left on the table.

From the nuisance trip to the service upgrade

The work that is scheduled, not emergency

EV chargers, generators and the jobs people plan.

Service work pays the week. Planned installs pay the year, and they behave like a different business — a quote, a wait, an order, a crew and an inspection.

Install Board with real stages

Order status runs not ordered through ordered and arrived. Job status runs pending approval, approved, scheduled, arrived, installed. Nobody schedules a crew for a load centre that is still on a truck.

Estimates that survive a two-week think

Planned work has a long decision window, which is exactly where most shops lose it. Unsold Estimates and automatic follow-ups mean the quote keeps working after the electrician has moved on to Thursday.

Inventory across the truck and the shop

Counts by truck and by warehouse, with movement and value reporting, so the wire and the breakers on the van are a number rather than a guess.

Job costing per install

What came in, what the gear cost, what the labour cost, what was left. Per job, sorted by whatever is losing money.

Paperwork

The inspection file, built while the work happens.

This trade is more inspected than most. The photograph you did not take is the half day you spend going back.

Forms with photo and signature

Build the checklist your crews actually use — panel photos, torque, grounding, the homeowner signature — and it attaches to the job rather than living in a truck.

It stays on the customer record

Two years later, when there is a question about what was installed and when, it is on the customer, not in a former employee’s phone.

Sent as a report

The completed form goes out as a report, so the homeowner or the GC has the documentation without anybody assembling a PDF by hand.

Time on the job is recorded

Time clock and timesheets sit behind payroll, so what you billed and what you paid are reconcilable at the end of the week.

Being straight with you

What this is not.

Not an estimating or design tool

There is no NEC code lookup, no load calculation, no panel schedule generator, no takeoff and no conduit fill table. If that is what you are shopping for, this is not it, and no amount of configuration will make it that.

It is the business around the work

Answering the phone, dispatching, quoting three ways, chasing the estimate that never got followed up, ordering the gear, documenting the install, invoicing it, and paying the electrician a percentage of the profit on it. That is what breaks in a growing shop, and it is identical whether the truck carries breakers or torsion springs.

Straight answers

Does ServiceBuilt do load calculations or NEC code lookup? And the rest.

Does ServiceBuilt do load calculations or NEC code lookup?

No, and it will not pretend otherwise. There is no code library, no load calc, no panel schedule generator and no takeoff. This is the business layer around the work — dispatch, estimates, follow-up, ordering, invoicing, payroll and reporting — not an engineering or design tool.

Can it handle permits and inspections?

It does not file permits with your jurisdiction. What it does is build the file: Forms with photo, signature, date, number and checkbox fields, attached to the job and the customer, and sendable as a report. So when the inspector or the GC asks, the documentation exists rather than being reconstructed from three phones.

How does it handle EV charger and generator installs, which are ordered rather than stocked?

Install Board tracks the order state separately from the job state. Order status runs not ordered, ordered, arrived. Job status runs pending approval, approved, scheduled, arrived, installed. That separation is the point — it stops a crew being scheduled for equipment that has not landed yet.

We run apprentices and helpers. Does that change the price?

No. Both plans are flat and include unlimited users, so apprentices, helpers and office staff cost nothing extra. On per-seat software, growing the crew and growing the software bill are the same event; here they are not.

Do you take a percentage of my card sales?

No. You connect your own Square account at your own rate. We add nothing, take no percentage, and never become the merchant of record. Deposits go from Square to your bank on your existing schedule.

Was this really built for electrical contractors?

It was built inside a garage door company, by the contractor who runs it, and it still runs that company every day. The parts that transfer are the parts that break in every service trade: the call, the dispatch, the three-option quote, the follow-up nobody did, the ordered equipment, the invoice and the commission. Your job types, price book and pay rules are yours to configure, and your history comes across in the migration.

Thirty days. No contract. Your data moved for you.

We migrate your history free on either plan, and we do the moving. If it is not better than what you have, you have lost nothing but a month.
