What Trova Captures

On every plumbing call, automatically.

Emergency call urgency

Captured at the door. Trova flags timeline pressure and surfaces it for the office to follow up immediately.

Water heater age + condition

"It's the original from when we bought the place." Documented. Flagged as replacement opportunity with the right talking points.

Code requirements

Permit conversations. Backflow preventer requirements. Documented for the customer file and the contractor's legal protection.

"While you're here" requests

"Can you also look at the toilet running upstairs?" Captured before the tech is out the door.

Repipe signals

Multiple slow drains. Galvanized pipe references. Trova flags it as a system-level conversation, not just a service call.

Customer history

Last service was a clog in March. Customer mentioned the water heater "kept tripping the breaker" then. Cross-referenced automatically.

Built for the way it actually works

One device. Hands-free. Phone stays in the pocket.

Your tech clips Trova on Monday morning. One button. The customer hears a single line of disclosure, the conversation continues, and Trova captures everything that matters — automatically.

No screens between your tech and the customer. No paperwork in the truck. No upsell that gets forgotten before the next call.

Real Scenario

An $89 service call that turned into a $4,200 water heater.

Saturday emergency call. Clogged drain at the Henderson residence. While running the snake, the tech and the homeowner are talking. Homeowner mentions the water heater has been "making weird noises" and the pilot keeps going out.

Old workflow: tech finishes the drain, takes the $89 service ticket, maybe mentions the water heater on the invoice notes if they remember.

With Trova: water-heater symptoms captured. Age referenced against customer record (15 years old). Trova drafts a Good/Better/Best replacement proposal — referencing the customer's actual words about the noise — and lands it in the homeowner's email before the tech's next call.
