HVAC software for one shop — or all of them

Run your HVAC business from first call to paid invoice — service calls, install jobs, and seasonal maintenance visits all on one status-first board. And if HVAC is one of several companies you own, MasterBuilds runs the others from the same workspace, each kept separate.

First call to paid invoice

HVAC software from first call to paid invoice.

A no-cooling call, a rooftop-unit install, a maintenance visit — every one starts as a request and becomes a card on your board. You set the priority, assign a tech, and schedule the visit, and the card carries the whole job: the notes, the photos, the time logged, and the parts you are waiting on.

The board is status-first, so at a glance you see which jobs are new, which are done, and which are stuck waiting on a compressor that has not shipped. When the work is finished and approved, the same job turns into an invoice with a PDF — no re-entering it into a second system.

One shop or several

One HVAC shop, or HVAC plus everything else you run.

Plenty of HVAC owners do not stop at HVAC. You picked up a plumbing business, or you already ran electrical and added heating and cooling, or HVAC is simply one of the companies you own. Most field-service software makes you buy and log into a separate account for each one — MasterBuilds does not.

Add each business as its own entity in a single workspace. Every one keeps its own color on the edge of its cards, its own board, and its own books, so an HVAC job never lands in the plumbing numbers. That is the whole idea behind running every business you own from one workspace. If you run HVAC as one of several trades rather than a separate company, the multi-trade setup covers that shape too.

From the truck

Field capture for install and service.

An install and a service call both live or die on what the tech captured on site. From any phone, your crew shoots photos and short video of the rooftop unit, the wiring, the model plate, or the part that failed, and logs their time against the job — all straight onto the card, no paperwork to reconcile later.

It runs as an offline-capable app, so a capture made in a basement or on a roof with no signal is saved and uploads on its own once the phone is back in range. See how field capture puts the proof of the work on the job from the first visit.

Pricing

Flat $99/mo, unlimited techs.

HVAC is seasonal — you staff up for the summer and the shoulder months look nothing alike. Software that charges per technician taxes you exactly when you add crew to keep up. MasterBuilds is a flat $99 a month for the whole workspace, unlimited techs and unlimited businesses, so bringing on a seasonal helper costs nothing extra.

See why flat-rate pricing beats per-technician plans as your crew grows, or the full breakdown on pricing.

How it compares

How it compares for an HVAC shop.

The big HVAC platforms are built for large dispatch operations and priced to match, with per-seat plans that climb every time you add a tech. MasterBuilds trades that for a tight lifecycle — intake, board, capture, invoice — at one flat price. The trade-off is real: those tools do more, from dispatch mapping to deep accounting. If your shop needs the lean version and a workspace that holds all your businesses, see how MasterBuilds compares to the usual field-service tools.

Questions from HVAC operators

Does it fit a small residential HVAC shop?
Yes. MasterBuilds is built for small operators — one owner and a couple of techs — not an enterprise dispatch center you have to configure for a month. A service call or a system install comes in, becomes a card on your board, gets worked in the field, and turns into an invoice. Residential service and light-commercial work run the same way, on the same board.
Can techs attach photos of installs from their phones?
Yes. Field capture works from any phone — your crew shoots photos and short video of the rooftop unit, the install, or the failed part right on the job, and they attach to the build. It is an offline-capable app, so captures made in a basement or a mechanical room with no signal upload on their own once the phone is back in range. Media counts toward your workspace’s weighted usage — a photo counts as one — never a per-photo charge.
What if I also run plumbing or electrical?
That is what MasterBuilds is for. Add each business as its own entity in one workspace, and HVAC, plumbing, and electrical each keep their own board, their own color, and their own books — all reached from one login. You are not paying for or logging into a separate app per trade, and the jobs never bleed together.
Is there a per-technician charge?
No. The price is a flat $99 per month for the whole workspace, with unlimited techs and unlimited businesses. Add a seasonal helper or a second crew and the bill does not move. What it costs to run one shop is what it costs to run several.
