Why reviews matter
The review math for plumbing & hvac professionals
Reviews are how emergency customers find you
94% of plumbing leads start with a Google search. The shop with 4.9 stars and 200 reviews wins; the shop with 4.6 stars and 30 reviews loses. The math doesn't care how good your work is.
Your customers are paying customers, not internet users
Most plumbing customers are over 40 and won't navigate to Google Maps and find your listing on their own. They will tap a link the technician hands them. SignalRoute gives them that link.
One bad day shouldn't tank your rating
If a basement still floods, the homeowner is going to vent. Better that they vent privately to you — where you can refund or follow up — than on Google where it sits forever and hurts every future search.
You can't be on the phone and asking for reviews
The owner can't ask. The dispatcher won't ask. The technician forgets. A QR code on the invoice asks every time, automatically.

Why routing wins for this vertical
Built for the way plumbing & hvac professionals actually work
Plumbing and HVAC live and die on local Google rankings. Smart routing means happy customers (the majority) actually leave the Google review they intended to leave, and the rare unhappy customer reaches you privately so you can fix the issue before it becomes a public 1-star.

FAQ
Questions plumbing & hvac professionals actually ask
What about emergency calls — the customer is stressed, can I really ask for a review?
Ask after the job, not during. Send a follow-up text 30–60 minutes after the technician leaves. By then the homeowner is relieved, you fixed their problem, and they're back to looking at their phone. That's when reviews happen.
I have one shop and one truck. Is this too much for me?
It's the opposite. SignalRoute is $30/mo for one location, set up in 5 minutes. Tools like Podium charge $399+/mo per location with sales calls and contract negotiation. We're built for the one-truck shop, not just the franchise.
What if I have multiple service areas or trucks?
Add each location for $15/mo. Each gets its own QR and dashboard, all under one bill. Useful if you operate as separate brands in different cities or want to track which area generates the most reviews.
Can I track which technician's customers leave the best reviews?
Yes — give each tech their own QR variant (one per location is built-in; per-tech tagging via the link is on the roadmap). For now, owners use UTM-style parameters on the QR to attribute reviews to specific crew members.
