Stop losing half a day to the merchant for one fitting.

What stalls a plumbing job.

1. The problem

   The van’s short and nobody said.

   The lad finds out he’s short a 15mm elbow or a valve at ten in the morning, and that’s the next hour gone at the merchant.

   With Banksman

   Lads request what they need with the quantity and a needed-by date, before they need it. The office approves and orders, and adds the order ref and expected delivery.

   • Material requests
2. The problem

   Pipework boxed in with no record of where it runs.

   A leak behind the boxing a year later, and nobody can say where the joints are.

   With Banksman

   Take photos before it’s covered. They’re stamped with the upload time, site, task and who took them, and kept in the site’s photo library.

   • Photo library
   • Tasks with photo proof
3. The problem

   Job talk spread across five chats.

   One with the builder, one with the client, one with the lads and a couple you’ve muted.

   With Banksman

   Each site gets its own group chat, and there are direct messages for one-to-one. It all stays with the job, not mixed in with your family chats.

   • Site group chats and direct messages
   • Push notifications

• Material requests

  The worker asks for the item, quantity, unit and needed-by date. Tracked from requested to approved, ordered, dispatched and delivered (or declined), with supplier, order ref, expected delivery and a delivery photo.

• Photo library

  Every photo is stamped with the upload time from our server, the site, the task and who took it. Location is optional, set by the company.

• Tasks with photo proof

  The manager sets the task for each site, with a trade, priority and due date. The worker ticks it off and adds the photo to prove it. Filter by site, trade, status or priority.

• Site group chats and direct messages

  A group chat for every site, plus direct messages, kept apart from your personal phone chats.

• Push notifications

  Notifications go straight to the phone, so updates don’t sit unread.

• Timesheets

  Daywork hours or price work per site or plot. The manager approves or queries with a reason, the worker fixes and resubmits. Grouped by week ending, CSV export, archived when paid.

• Drawings for every site

  Drawings on every phone, labelled by version, sorted by site and downloadable on site.

• Installs like an app

  Add it to the home screen and it opens like any other app. No app store needed.

• Your logo and colours

  Upload your logo and app icon and pick your colours from the settings, with a readability check as you go. The lads see your name, not ours.

• Labour cost per job

  Approved hours times each worker’s rate, so you can see what a job is costing in labour.

These aren't in the app yet. They're marked "Coming soon" until they are.

  Saves your work when there’s no signal and syncs when you’re back in range.

• Urgency on material requests Coming soon

  Mark a material request as urgent so the office knows what to chase first.
