Job Management Software for UK Plumbing & Heating Contractors
BRCKS is job management software for UK plumbing and heating contractors — Gas Safe registered businesses juggling reactive callouts, boiler installs, bathroom fit-outs and landlord CP12 rounds across dozens of properties every week. Every callout, benchmark, gas safety certificate, part-fitted photo and customer sign-off is captured from the WhatsApp messages your engineers are already sending, and filed automatically against the right property.
The result: your Gas Safe compliance is watertight, your engineers spend zero minutes a day on admin, and when a landlord, insurer or building control officer asks for evidence, you find it in one search. Built in the UK for plumbing contractors who'd rather be spannering than filing paperwork.
Why UK Plumbing Contractors Choose BRCKS
Plumbing work in the UK is unusually paperwork-heavy for a trade whose value sits in the fitting. Every gas job generates a Building Regulations notification, a benchmark commissioning entry, a manufacturer warranty registration and — for rented properties — a CP12 gas safety record with a hard 12-month renewal clock on it. Miss the renewal date and your landlord client is committing a criminal offence. Miss the benchmark and the boiler warranty walks. Miss the Gas Safe notification and you're the one in the frame.
Most trade-jobbing platforms (ServiceM8, Simpro, Commusoft) are optimised around invoicing. They handle the money side well but leave the compliance evidence trail thin. BRCKS approaches it from the other end: capture the evidence — dated photos, engineer notes, CP12 uploads, benchmark scans — automatically from the WhatsApp your engineer is already using, then wire it into a compliance calendar that never lets a renewal slip past.
What BRCKS Does for a Plumbing Business
Gas Safe cert and CP12 tracker. Every CP12 and Gas Safe Building Regulations notification uploaded from WhatsApp is filed against the property, dated, and put on the compliance calendar. Automatic reminders 30, 14 and 7 days before renewal — for you and, if you want, for the landlord.
Benchmark and commissioning capture. Photo of the completed benchmark, manufacturer serial number, commissioning readings — all captured from the engineer's phone and filed against the boiler install. Warranty registrations become one click instead of one afternoon.
Callout job records. Reactive leaks, blocked flues, no-hot-water calls — logged the moment the customer messages, tracked through diagnosis, parts and fix. Every photo, receipt and sign-off attached to the job.
Snagging and defect tracking. Missed sign-offs and defects from main contractors become tracked items on your snag list, assigned to the right engineer and closed out with proof-of-fix photos.
Built for Gas Safe Compliance
Every plumbing business that touches gas carries a hard legal obligation to retain records for a defined period — CP12s for a minimum of two years, Building Regulations notifications indefinitely against the property, and manufacturer warranty documentation for the life of the appliance. BRCKS stores all of it against the property address, dated and searchable, with a full audit trail of who took the photo, from where, on what date. If a coroner's inquiry, an HSE investigation or a Building Safety Regulator request ever lands on your desk, the answer is one search away — not one Sunday afternoon scrolling three years of WhatsApp threads.
