Common questions
No. Jobber stays for quoting, scheduling, and invoicing. Operator adds a missed call recovery layer on top.
Operator flags plumbing emergency language for immediate escalation to whoever is on call. Emergency calls do not wait until morning.
One recovered emergency call per week at $400 average = $1,600 per month recaptured. Most shops recover 2 to 6 calls per week once the queue is live.
Most Jobber plumbing shops are live in one session. Connect the phone log, set the queue owner, and the first callback task appears that day.
