Questions & answers

Frequently asked questions

Everything contractors ask us about plans, crews, time tracking, payroll and getting paid.

What is JobWorks365?

JobWorks365 is an AI-powered contractor CRM, scheduling, GPS time-tracking, and payroll app built for home service businesses — electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, roofers, general contractors, handymen, and cleaning companies. It brings leads, jobs, quotes, contracts, invoices, payments, team scheduling, employee time clock, and client messaging into one mobile-first app.

Who is JobWorks365 built for?

Contractors of every size, from solo operators to growing teams. If you run a home service business and need a simple CRM for contractors — plus team scheduling, GPS time tracking, and payroll — without the complexity and cost of enterprise tools like ServiceTitan, JobWorks365 is built for you.

Does JobWorks365 support multiple team members?

Yes, on the Elite plan. Elite includes 5 team members and each extra worker is only $1 per month. Assign roles (owner, primary planner, field service), share individual jobs with specific team members, assign milestones across the crew, and control who sees financials.

Does JobWorks365 include GPS time tracking and a time clock?

Yes, on Elite. Employees clock in and out from their phone with GPS verification, optional geofences per job site, and photo/notes at clock-in. Owners get a review queue with names, locations, and GPS accuracy before approving hours.

Does JobWorks365 handle payroll for hourly employees?

Yes. Set hourly wages with overtime multipliers, and JobWorks365 automatically computes gross pay from approved shifts. A running ledger shows exactly what each employee is owed, and payments are allocated oldest-first across shifts so you always know what's paid, partial, or outstanding.

Can employees request time off?

Yes. Employees submit time-off requests from their phone; owners approve or reject. Approved time off hard-blocks scheduling so no one gets assigned to a milestone during their vacation.

How is JobWorks365 different from Jobber or Housecall Pro?

JobWorks365 focuses on the workflow Canadian contractors actually use — leads, quotes, contracts, scheduling, invoices, GPS time tracking, payroll, and a simple client portal — without enterprise complexity, and priced in CAD for contractor teams of every size. It also includes AI smart reminders, internal @mentions on jobs, and a Share to JobWorks365 shortcut to capture leads from your phone in one tap.

Does JobWorks365 include scheduling?

Yes. JobWorks365 includes job scheduling and calendar views on every paid plan, plus crew milestone assignments, working-hours and time-off awareness on Elite, and AI-powered reminders so nothing gets missed.

Can my clients pay through JobWorks365?

Yes. Send a quote or invoice and clients can pay online through a secure client portal. Track deposits, milestone payments, and final balances per job.

Can I capture leads from my phone's share sheet?

Yes. Share a contact, phone number, or selected text from any app on Android or iPhone and send it straight into JobWorks365's lead review screen. One-tap install for iPhone via a ready-made Shortcut.

Is JobWorks365 a Canadian company?

Yes. JobWorks365 is built in Canada for Canadian contractors and home service businesses, with pricing and features tuned for contractor teams.

How much does JobWorks365 cost?

There is a Free plan for solo contractors with caps on leads and active jobs. Pro is $12.99 / month — our most popular plan — and covers leads, customers, quotes, contracts, jobs, invoices, payments and the client portal with no caps. Elite is $20.99 / month, our premium plan: everything in Pro plus 5 team members, crew scheduling, time off, GPS clock in and out, and employee hours and pay tracking — with extra workers at only $1 / month each. Save 30% when you pay yearly.

Does JobWorks365 have a job site sketchpad?

Yes. Draw site plans, mark up job photos, or rough out layouts right from your phone. Every sketch saves to the job automatically, so it's never lost and can be shared with your client or crew.

Can JobWorks365's AI build a quote and contract for me?

Yes. Describe the job or point the AI at a similar past job and it drafts an itemized quote and a matching contract for you to review and send — nothing goes to a client without your approval.

Does JobWorks365 flag things I might miss in client conversations?

Yes. AI conversation insights read your client message threads and flag things like an unquoted change order, an unanswered question, or a date that slipped — a second set of eyes on every job.

Can I take online payments in JobWorks365?

Yes. Quotes and invoices include a secure pay-online option, and every deposit, milestone payment, and final balance is automatically tracked against the right job — no manual reconciling.

What is "Share to JobWorks365"?

It's a share-sheet shortcut on iPhone and Android that lets you send a contact, phone number, or text straight into JobWorks365's lead review screen — no retyping, no losing the lead in your messages.

What is the most affordable contractor CRM?

JobWorks365 is one of the lowest all-in prices in contractor software: $20.99 CAD/month on Elite covers your first 5 users — about $4.20 per user — with GPS time tracking and payroll included and extra workers at $1/month each. Solo contractors pay $12.99 on Pro, or nothing on the Free plan. Most competitors charge per user and sell time tracking separately, so compare published price lists at your crew size.

Do I need to install anything?

No. JobWorks365 runs in your browser and as a Progressive Web App on iOS and Android — install it from your browser, no app store needed.
