Good Plan for Plumbers
Plumbing emergencies don't wait for payday. When a customer faces a $3,000 repair bill after a burst pipe or sewer backup, they may not have the cash on hand—but they still need the work done.
Good Plan helps you get paid while maintaining the positive customer relationships that drive referrals and repeat business.
Common Plumbing Scenarios
Emergency Repairs
Burst pipes, water heaters, and sewage backups often create large, unexpected bills. Customers appreciate the option to spread these costs over 3-6 months rather than all at once.
Bathroom & Kitchen Remodels
Remodels can cost $5,000-$20,000+. A payment plan makes your quote more competitive and helps customers afford the quality work they want.
Water Damage Restoration
When insurance doesn't cover everything, customers face out-of-pocket expenses. Payment plans help them recover without financial stress.
Whole-House Repipes
A $10,000+ repipe is a major investment. Break it into manageable monthly payments over 12 months.
How Good Plan Works for Plumbers
1. Complete the Job
Do the work first. You've already invested time and materials—let's make sure you get paid.
2. Create the Plan
Enter the invoice amount and customer details. Good Plan suggests 3, 6, or 12-month payment options, or create your own.
3. Send to Customer
Customer receives a secure link. They review options and choose what works for their budget. No collections language—just fair options.
4. Automated Check-Ins
On each payment date, Good Plan sends a neutral check-in: "Hi [Name], were you able to make this payment?" No threats, no pressure.
5. Customer Responds
They click "Yes, I paid" and tell you how (e-transfer, check, etc.). You confirm in your accounting system.
6. Everyone Stays Happy
You get paid. They get a fair deal. The relationship stays positive.
Why Good Plan is Better Than Collections
Traditional collections agencies:
- Take 30-50% of what they recover
- Damage customer relationships permanently
- Use aggressive tactics that reflect poorly on your business
- May not recover anything at all
Good Plan:
- Costs a flat monthly fee (starts at $29/month)
- Preserves relationships and referrals
- Uses calm, neighbourly language
- Puts you in control
