Business Systems & Software Optimization

Business Systems & Software Optimization for Home Service Businesses

Most plumbing, HVAC, and electrical businesses don’t fail because they lack software — they struggle because their systems aren’t set up to work together. Disconnected tools, incomplete implementations, and poorly trained teams create operational friction that limits growth and hides profitability. Contractor In Charge helps solve that.

We are a team of experienced operators and advisors who specialize in accounting systems, field service management software, and office operations for home service businesses. We don’t just recommend changes — we help implement them, train your team, and stay involved so systems actually work the way they’re supposed to.

Our role is to act as an extension of your business, giving you structure, clarity, and confidence to scale — without the cost and complexity of hiring in-house.

Built for Plumbing, HVAC & Electrical Contractors

Home service businesses require systems that support:

• High call volume
• Technician scheduling and dispatch
• Job costing and margin tracking
• Inventory and purchasing control

We work exclusively with plumbing, HVAC, and electrical companies, which means every recommendation is grounded in real-world contractor operations.
