Gas Fitting Quoting Software NZ: Quote Gas Jobs Faster and Win More Work
Most gas fitting businesses quote from the office the next morning, using a spreadsheet and a price list on the wall. The customer waits 24 hours — and sometimes calls the next person in the Yellow Pages who quoted them on the spot. Here's how quoting from the field changes that.
The gas fitting quoting challenge
Gas fitting quotes include equipment (gas appliances, fittings, pipe, valves), labour, Certificate of Compliance fees, and sometimes subcontract costs (plumbing, electrical). Quoting accurately on-site requires a materials price list in hand and a clear understanding of your labour rates. The right software makes this fast enough to do standing in the customer's kitchen.
Saved per gas job quote
Select equipment and materials from the price list on-site vs calculating from memory at the office.
Saved per invoice
Auto-populated from the job record — no re-entering materials, labour, and appliance details.
Lost compliance records
CoC and pressure test records stored digitally against each job — not in a folder in the van.
How It Works: From Site Assessment to Paid Invoice
Assess and quote on-site
Your technician assesses the job — pipe run length, gas type, appliance model, connection points, CoC complexity. They open the app, select equipment and materials from the price list (with your margin built in), add labour, and send a professional quote. The customer has it before you leave the property.
Customer accepts, job is created
The customer approves the quote. It converts to a scheduled job automatically — with all the details (appliances, address, customer contact, and any notes from the site assessment) already there. No re-entry.
Installation day: time, materials, and CoC logged
Your technician clocks in, logs materials used, records pressure test results, and completes the Certificate of Compliance (Form 12) details — gas type, work performed, test pressures — all from their phone on-site. The CoC record is attached to the job immediately.
Compliance records stored automatically
CoC details, pressure test results, as-built notes, and any photos are stored against the job record. Searchable by address or customer if you ever need to produce them — for a building consent, a property sale, or an EPA audit.
Invoice sent the same day
The invoice is auto-populated from the job record — equipment, materials, labour, GST. It goes out the same day the work is complete. Same-day invoicing gets paid faster — consistently.
The compliance record step is often treated as a separate task — paperwork done later in the office. But logging CoC details and pressure test results on-site at the time of the work is the most reliable way to ensure records are accurate and complete. If there's ever a question about a job — years later, from a new property owner or a building consent audit — you'll have the record. If you logged it on a paper form in the van, you may not.
