For plumbing and heating firms

Turn the room walkthrough into plumbing scope your team can follow.

Setout Pro helps plumbers and heating engineers keep measured room context, manually reviewed runs, fittings, appliance notes, labour and allowances attached to the quote and accepted work.

Room and appliance context linked to reviewed pipework scope, quote and operative package

A clear definition

What should plumbing quoting software preserve?

Plumbing quoting software should preserve the relationship between the property context, the firm's reviewed quantities and the priced scope. A measured run is not a complete materials list: fittings, access, condition, waste and uncertainty remain professional inputs.

No more copying pipe lengths and radiator notes from a phone into a fresh quote that has lost the room they referred to.

How it works

A reviewed plumbing and heating job chain

Use measurements and notes to explain the proposed work, then apply company rates and professional judgement. Setout Pro does not silently generate pipework or claim supplier availability.

  1. 01

    Record context

    Measure the room or import the drawing and note relevant boiler, radiator, cylinder or appliance context.

  2. 02

    Review runs

    Enter measured routes, fittings, access assumptions and allowances as firm-reviewed scope.

  3. 03

    Price the work

    Apply labour and builder-entered figures without pretending unknown materials are certain.

  4. 04

    Agree the version

    Issue the customer one fixed quotation version and preserve their exact decision.

  5. 05

    Hand to the operative

    Assign accepted room-aware scope without revealing internal cost or margin.

In practice

Useful from surveyor to heating operative

  • A surveyor can use a phone or tablet to keep room and appliance context together.
  • The estimator can distinguish a measured run from fittings and contingency entered by judgement.
  • The owner controls labour rates, allowances and the figure shown to the customer.
  • The operative can receive the accepted scope and relevant plan context through Work.

The honest boundary

Plumbing and heating boundary

  • Setout Pro does not size systems, calculate hydraulic performance or design pipework automatically.
  • It does not provide live merchant stock, account prices or a guaranteed bill of materials.
  • Measured context and notes do not replace inspection, testing or required certification.
  • Any future regulations guidance must cite its jurisdiction, source and date and remain non-blocking.

Questions, answered plainly

Frequently asked questions

Can Setout Pro record pipe runs and fittings?

A firm can record measured context and enter runs, fittings and allowances as reviewed scope. The product does not infer a complete pipework design or bill of materials.

Can I use my own plumbing labour rates?

Yes. Company labour rates and builder-entered figures can inform the quote, while the business retains control of the customer total.

Can an operative see the room and accepted work?

Where plan context is assigned, Work can show the relevant accepted package without exposing internal commercial detail.
