Selling services to businesses in their own region to plumbers
Most plumbing firms are owner-run with a few engineers and a van each, so the person you want is often the one under a sink when you call. The owner decides on almost everything, from software to suppliers, and tends to buy when something saves time on quoting, invoicing or finding the next job.
Local service businesses mostly grow through word of mouth, a vehicle with their name on it and a listing in a few directories. A lead database of nearby companies lets you approach the right businesses in your own area instead of waiting for the phone to ring.
Every month you do not reach plumbers with a clear offer, someone else does. A list you own lets you work the market in a steady rhythm instead of in bursts.
What local service businesses run into with plumbers
You know which companies are nearby but have no organised list of them.
Paste a directory page into the scrape tool or import a list, then keep every company in one place with its own status.
Contact details on local websites are often just a web address.
Derive role addresses such as info@ and office@ from the domain with email from domain.
Plumber listings are spread over directories, maps and review sites, and each one exports in a different shape.
Import every CSV or Excel file into one lead file, map the columns once and let Riftjaw flag duplicates before anything is added.
Many small plumbing firms only list a phone number and a website, with no email address.
Email from domain builds likely addresses such as info@ and office@ from the website, marked as guesses so you know what is unverified.
A week of prospecting in Riftjaw
Monday: collect
Export a batch of plumbers from public listings and import it. Duplicates are skipped.

Derive missing emails with info@, office@, enquiries@ and hello@ and tag the records that look like a fit.

What to say to plumbers
Pick one angle per campaign and write it once, with placeholders like {company|your team} for the details.
- Lead with fewer missed calls and more booked jobs, because every unanswered call is a job going to the next plumber on the list.
- Show how your offer cuts evening admin like quotes and invoices, which most owners still do after a full day on site.
- Mention seasonal pressure such as frozen pipes and boiler breakdowns in winter, when being easy to find online matters most.
Fields worth recording for plumbers
Add these as fields in your lead file. Any column in your import can become a field.
| Field | Why it helps |
|---|---|
| Company name | The key field. Duplicates are checked on it or on the website. |
| Website | Needed to derive an email when the export has none. |
| Service area | Where they work, so you can split the list by town or region. |
| Emergency callouts | Firms that offer out of hours work often care about call handling and dispatch tools. |
| Gas work | Whether they also do boilers and heating changes what they buy and who they buy it from. |
| Team size | A sole trader and a firm with ten engineers need a different pitch. |
| Website quality | A weak or missing site is a clear opening for web and search agencies. |
Questions people ask
Collect listings from public directories or a scraper export, then import the file into Riftjaw and map the columns. Add a Service area field so you can save a filter for each town and send to it separately.
Yes. Add a field or a tag such as gas work and fill it during import or by hand. A saved filter on that field gives you a separate list for heating related offers.
If your file has an email column, that wins. If it only has websites, tick the prefixes you want, such as info@, office@, enquiries@ and hello@, and Riftjaw derives addresses from each domain. Derived addresses are good guesses, not verified, so start with small batches.
