Hiring Software for Plumbing Companies
Licensed plumbers do not stay on the market long. Our system answers every applicant in minutes, screens for license and experience before you spend a minute, and books the real ones onto your calendar.
Sound Familiar?
Licensed Plumbers Are Gone in a Day
A journeyman who applies in the morning has offers by the afternoon. If your shop responds tomorrow, you paid for the job post and someone else got the plumber.
You Cannot Recruit From Under a Sink
Emergency calls do not pause so you can phone applicants. Hiring happens in the gaps, which means it mostly does not happen.
Resumes Do Not Show Experience
Anyone can type journeyman. The difference between a service plumber who can run a truck solo and a helper who watched one is invisible until you ask the right questions.
How Qualified Hires Works
Job Posts Tuned for the Trades
We write posts that speak to plumbers, lead with what they care about, and publish them where trade candidates actually look, plus a branded careers page for your shop.
Instant Text Screening for License and Experience
Every applicant gets a text in minutes, and the conversation asks about licensing, years on the truck, and the work they have actually done. Second-round interviews use trade-specific questions built with working plumbing owners.
Interviews That Fit Around Service Calls
Screened candidates book into slots you control, with confirmations and reminders. Your techs stay on jobs and you meet plumbers who already passed the first gate.
Why Owners Trust Us With Hiring
We run hiring for plumbing and HVAC companies today, and our second-round interview scripts for plumbers were built with a working plumbing company owner, question by question. They separate the plumber who can diagnose from the one who can only replace parts.
The single biggest reason good applicants slip away is a slow first response. Our system texts every applicant back within minutes, any hour of the day. Across our client companies, 4 out of 5 applicants get their first text within 10 minutes of applying. The numbers above come straight from our production database, not a marketing deck.
Qualified Hires was not built by a software company guessing at what hiring is like. It was built by the owner of Cascade Home Cleaning, a residential cleaning company doing over $100K per month per location. Our own crews come through the exact system on this page, every week.
Common Questions
Can it screen for license level?
Yes. The text screening asks about license status and level up front, and the interview scripts dig into real experience, so an apprentice cannot pass as a journeyman just by saying the word.
We need apprentices too. Does this only work for licensed guys?
It works for both. Apprentice pipelines screen for reliability, mechanical aptitude, and intent to stay in the trade, which are the things that predict whether your training investment pays off.
How do interviews get scheduled around emergency work?
You set the interview slots and can change them anytime. Candidates only see what you open. Confirmations and reminders go out automatically, which is why the show rate beats phone tag.
Is plumbing hiring seasonal?
Less than other trades, but demand spikes still hit, and the shops that win them staffed up before the spike. Keeping the pipeline warm year round is cheap compared to turning away work.
