The scope itself

What goes into a plumber scope of works.

Plumbing scopes get argued over where the work is invisible: drainage runs, what is behind the wall, and which certificates are included.

Line items that belong on it

  • Hot water service supply, install or relocation
  • Stormwater and drainage works including connections
  • Rough-in to wet areas for fixtures and tapware
  • Fixture and tapware install and fit-off
  • Testing, compliance certificates and handover

What gets left off

  • Compliance certificates. Required, chargeable, and routinely left off the quote.
  • Excavation and reinstatement for drainage. Digging is one job, putting the surface back is another.
  • Fixtures the client has not chosen yet. Without a PC allowance you are carrying their showroom taste.

Worth excluding in writing

  • Supply of client-selected fixtures and tapware
  • Rectification of existing pipework beyond the works area
  • Making good to finished surfaces after access

Where BuildScope fits

You run the job. BuildScope does the paperwork in the middle.

Plumbers know how to walk a job and price it. BuildScope takes the paperwork between the site meeting and the quote going out.

BuildScope does this You do this
  1. 01 Enquiry lands Client rings or emails. You book a time to look at the job.
  2. 02 Site meeting You walk the job, measure up and take your photos.
  3. 03 Brain dump Talk or type the job into BuildScope, on site or in the ute.
  4. 04 The questions BuildScope asks what a tired estimator forgets: access, protection, rubbish, patching.
  5. 05 Scope of Works A full scope, trade by trade, preliminaries first, PC and PS kept separate.
  6. 06 Price and export Check quantities and pricing, apply your margin and GST, export the client-ready PDF.
  7. 07 Send and sign You send the PDF. The acceptance page is already in there for the client to sign.
  8. 08 Job runs Book the trades and get moving. The scope is your checklist and your variation defence.

BuildScope covers steps 03 to 06. You do the trade work, it does the paperwork.

Plumbers already running accounting software? No worries.

Build the scope in BuildScope the way you always do, then move the job into your accounting or job management software as a draft, with the PDF attached. Nothing reaches your client until you send it.

How it works

Three steps from site visit to client-ready scope.

01

Describe the job

Walk the services on site and note what is being replaced, what is being relocated, and what you cannot see yet.

02

Answer the questions that matter

BuildScope asks the plumbing questions: fixture counts, drainage runs and falls, hot water type and location, and which certificates apply.

03

Review and send

Check the rough-in and fit-off split, keep fixtures as PC allowances where the client is choosing, and export.

FAQ

Questions plumbers ask before signing up.

Is BuildScope built for plumbers?
Yes. BuildScope is built around real plumber scopes of works, with plumbers-specific line items, inclusions and wording. It is not a generic template you have to bend to fit.
Can BuildScope help plumbers avoid missed items?
That is the point. It prompts for the things plumbers commonly leave off a quote, like hot water and stormwater, so fewer items slip through before you send the scope.
What should a plumbing scope of works include?
Services, fixtures and compliance as separate sections. Hot water, stormwater and drainage with the runs and connections described, rough-in and fit-off split out, then fixture install with the fixtures themselves listed as PC items where the client is selecting. Testing and compliance certificates go on their own lines because they are required work with real time attached.
How should plumbers scope drainage work?
Describe the run, the falls and the connection point, and say what happens to the surface afterwards. Most drainage disputes are not about the pipe, they are about the trench: who excavates, who backfills, and whether the concrete, paving or lawn gets reinstated. Writing reinstatement in or out of the scope settles it before the machine turns up.
Can I edit the scope after the AI builds it?
Always. Every line item, quantity, rate and section is editable. Reorder, add, remove or reword anything before you export.
Does BuildScope work from voice notes and photos?
Yes. Talk through the plumber job, or drop in site notes and a PDF, and BuildScope turns it into a structured Scope of Works you review and tidy.
How does the free trial work?
7 days free with 10 scopes on us, no credit card. Build and export them however you like. After that it is $99 per user a month, everything included.
Does BuildScope work with the software I already use?
Yes. Connect it once from your account settings and any saved scope can be pushed across as a draft, carrying your line items, section headings and exclusions, with the BuildScope PDF attached. BuildScope never sends it to your client and never raises an invoice: that stays your call.
