QuickBooks charges you for inventory management designed for retail stores, payroll systems for 500-person companies, and dozens of accounting features built for CPAs — not contractors.
Double-entry bookkeeping. Chart of accounts. Journal entries. You're a contractor, not a CPA. You shouldn't need 40 hours of training just to send an invoice or pay your crew.
Traditional field service software assumes you're in an office. You're under a sink, on a roof, or in a crawlspace. Your software should work the way field workers actually work.
Customer texts here. Job notes in your phone. Invoices in email. Time tracked on paper. Payments in Venmo. This fragmentation costs you money and your sanity.
Enter your company name, logo, and payment terms. Takes 5 minutes. No accountant needed.
Import your contacts or add them one by one. Every customer gets their own profile with full job and invoice history.
Open a job, log hours, add materials, snap photos. Track status from quoted to completed in real time.
Generate a professional PDF invoice from the job site. Send it by email. Collect payment online. Get paid faster.
Every customer, job, invoice, and photo in one place. Tap to call, email, or navigate to their address. Full job history at your fingertips — no more searching through texts.
Track every job from quote to completion. Log materials, notes, and photos. Know exactly what each job costs before you invoice — so you never leave money on the table.
Snap before, during, and after photos right from the app. Tagged, organized, and attached to the job forever. Protection if a customer ever disputes your work.
Create and send invoices before you leave the driveway. Professional PDF delivery by email, accounts receivable aging tracking, and one-tap online payment collection.
Log employee hours per job with individual pay rates. Generate weekly and monthly payroll views. Mark employees paid and track every dollar out the door — no spreadsheet needed.
Track every item in your truck or shop. Cost-per-unit pricing automatically rolls into job costs so you always know your margin — without touching a spreadsheet.
The IRS lets you deduct 76¢ for every business mile you drive. A contractor driving 15,000 miles a year is sitting on an $11,400 tax deduction — but only if you have the log to prove it.
CrewHammer logs your drives automatically and ties every trip to the job you drove it for. Come tax time, export an IRS-ready mileage log with one tap. No notebook on the dashboard. No guessing in April.
Track service calls, panel upgrades, and commercial projects. Log wire and materials per job. Send invoices same-day and document every rough-in with photos.
Manage service calls and remodels in one place. Attach before-and-after photos for every repair. Track pipe, fittings, and fixture costs automatically against each job.
Document roof condition with photos before you start. Track shingle and material usage per square. Generate professional estimates and invoices that win jobs.
Quote by room or square footage. Track paint, primer, and supply costs per job. Log crew hours individually so you know your true cost before billing the customer.
Manage maintenance contracts and emergency calls from your phone. Track parts per service call. Build seasonal crew schedules and get paid the same day the job is done.
Track subcontractors, materials, and progress across multiple active jobs simultaneously. Keep every customer updated and every invoice organized in one place.

"I used to spend Sunday nights doing paperwork. Now I send the invoice before I pack up my tools. Customers pay faster too — I think because the invoice looks so professional."
"QuickBooks had me paying my accountant $300 a month just to maintain it. I canceled both. CrewHammer does what I actually need and my wife can use it too without me explaining anything."
"The job photos saved me $8,000. Customer claimed we damaged their floor. I pulled up the before photos right there on my phone. Case closed. Worth every penny for that alone."

CrewHammer is a mobile-first field service CRM built for independent contractors and small trade businesses — electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, roofers, painters, drywall contractors, general contractors, and landscapers. It replaces the scattered mix of texts, paper estimates, notes apps, and desktop invoicing with one app that works from the job site.
Every plan includes customer management, job tracking from quote to completion, professional PDF invoicing with accounts receivable aging, job photo documentation, inventory tracking with automatic material cost rollup, and automatic mileage tracking with IRS-ready log export. The Pro and Team plans add per-employee crew timesheets with weekly and monthly payroll views. Plans start at $29/month with a 30-day free trial and no contracts.
Compared to QuickBooks (from $85/month, built for accountants, 40+ hour learning curve) and Jobber (from $49/month), CrewHammer is designed specifically for owners who work in the field: most users are fully set up in about 30 minutes, and everything — photos, hours, invoices, payments — works from a phone.
