This calculator turns your team size, the hours each person spends on dispatch, quoting and invoicing, and their loaded hourly cost into the time and money PipeWise can free up.
It multiplies people by hours by cost to price what dispatch, quoting and invoicing costs today, then applies a conservative 40% efficiency gain — the typical range plumbing teams see after moving off spreadsheets and manual steps.
Use it to sanity-check whether purpose-built software pays for itself. For most teams the yearly saving dwarfs the subscription, which is why payback is usually measured in weeks.
Frequently asked questions
How much time can PipeWise really save?
Most plumbing teams recover 30–50% of the hours spent on repetitive dispatch, quoting and invoicing once it is automated. This tool uses 40% as a middle estimate; your result scales linearly if your figure is higher or lower.
What hourly cost should I enter?
Use the fully-loaded cost — wages plus payroll taxes and benefits, usually 1.25–1.4x base pay. Entering base wages alone understates the true saving.
Is this calculator free to use?
Yes. It runs entirely in your browser, needs no signup or email, and nothing you enter is stored or sent anywhere.
