LyonHawk Digital

Custom software for HVAC, plumbing & electrical contractors

Fill the workflow gaps your field-service platform leaves open.

ServiceTitan, Jobber, and Housecall Pro run your dispatch — but MEP work needs more. LyonHawk Digital builds the equipment portals, estimating calculators, and subcontractor dispatch tools that plug into your stack via API. You own what we build; your core platform stays put.

The gap

MEP work is too technical for one-size-fits-all field-service software.

Equipment history lives in techs' camera rolls

Commercial clients want maintenance histories, refrigerant logs, and photo reports for every chiller on the roof. Your CRM stores the job — not the asset. So coordinators rebuild the story in email every time the client asks.

Complex bids don't fit a flat-rate price book

Estimating a $75k ductwork replacement or a commercial electrical rewire in ServiceTitan or Jobber means spreadsheets, guesswork, and re-keying the finished number back into the CRM. Multi-variable job costing wasn't built for this.

Subcontractors don't need a $300/month seat

Crane operators, backflow inspectors, and third-party specialists get one job, not a login. Buying another SaaS license — or running them through email — slows dispatch and loses the audit trail.

Extend the platform you already pay for.

LyonHawk Digital builds lightweight, owned modules that handle the MEP-specific workflows your field-service tool wasn't designed for — then pushes data back through the API so your team stays in one system of record.

Your platform alone

  • Great for dispatch, invoicing, and residential flat-rate jobs
  • Equipment asset history buried or behind expensive client logins
  • Complex commercial estimates stuck in Excel sidecars
  • Subcontractor coordination via text and extra seat licenses
  • Compliance logs (refrigerant, inspections) scattered across tools

Platform + LyonHawk Digital extensions

  • Keep ServiceTitan, Jobber, BuildOps, or Housecall Pro as your core
  • Client Equipment Dashboard with per-unit history and photo reports
  • 60-second MEP Bidding Calculator that pushes quotes into your CRM
  • Subcontractor Dispatch Portal — no extra per-seat fees
  • You own the extension; predictable care plan from $250/month

What we build

Three extensions MEP shops ask us for most.

We don't rip out your stack. We build the modules your platform's roadmap won't — and wire them in so your office never re-keys the same data twice.

Client Equipment Dashboards

A lightweight portal where commercial clients see every unit on their property — maintenance history, refrigerant logs, filter changes, and photo reports — without an expensive login buried in your main SaaS.

e.g. Commercial HVAC client pulls chiller history before a board meeting, without calling your office.

02

MEP Bidding Calculators

Custom estimating engines for jobs too complex for a flat-rate book — ductwork replacements, commercial rewires, multi-phase mechanical installs. Finished quotes push straight into ServiceTitan, Jobber, or Housecall Pro via API.

e.g. Estimator prices a $75k rewire in 60 seconds; the job appears in your CRM ready to send.

Subcontractor Dispatch Portals

Assign crane operators, backflow inspectors, and third-party specialists from a dedicated portal — confirm availability, share site details, and capture sign-off — without buying another $300/month seat license.

e.g. Rooftop unit swap: crane op gets the dispatch, confirms, and closes out — no email thread.

The ownership pledge

You own the extension. Your platform stays yours.

The modules we build live in your cloud account and integrate with tools you already pay for. No vendor lock-in on top of vendor lock-in — if we part ways, the extension keeps running.

The code

The repository is transferred to an account in your name. Full commit history, API integration docs included.

The cloud account

Hosting and database live in accounts you control. We're operators on your account, not the owner of it.

The data

Equipment records, bid history, and subcontractor logs in standard Postgres. Export everything, anytime — and sync what matters back to your CRM.

The exit

Cancel your care plan whenever you like. The extension keeps running alongside your field-service platform.

How it works

Four steps from workflow gap to live integration.

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    A free 30-minute call. You show us the workflow your platform can't handle — equipment reporting, complex bids, subcontractor handoffs — and we map where an extension fits without disrupting what already works.

  2. 02

    Fixed-scope proposal

    You get a written proposal with a fixed price, delivery date, and exactly which API integrations version one includes. No hourly meters, no surprise invoices.

  3. 03

    Build in weekly slices

    We ship something your team can click every week, starting with the thinnest slice that proves the integration. You steer while we build, not after.

  4. 04

    Launch + care plan

    We deploy to your cloud account, connect the APIs, train your team, and hand over the keys. A monthly care plan keeps the extension fast, secure, and evolving.

Plain-language terms

  • No deposit, no dev: a 50% deposit books your build slot — we never start work on a handshake, and you never wonder where you stand.
  • Builds are custom-quoted; most first releases land between $2,500 and $15,000 depending on scope.
  • Large payments by ACH bank transfer (cheap for everyone); monthly plans by card on file.

Care plans

Transparent pricing. No meters running.

Extensions are custom-quoted — most first releases land between $2,500 and $15,000. After launch, a monthly care plan keeps your module fast, secure, and compatible as your platform updates.

What clients say

MEP shops extending what already works.

We didn't leave ServiceTitan — we added the equipment portal our commercial clients had been asking for for two years. They stopped calling for logs; they just log in.

Dana Whitfield

Operations Manager, commercial HVAC contractor

Our commercial bids used to live in Excel and die in Excel. Now the calculator pushes straight into Jobber and my estimator actually enjoys the process.

Marcus Bell

Owner, electrical contracting company

Crane ops and backflow inspectors don't need a Housecall Pro seat. The dispatch portal cost less than two months of licenses and we own it.

Owner, commercial plumbing company

FAQ

Questions we hear on every discovery call.

Are you trying to replace our field-service platform?

No — that's the point. We build extensions for shops already on ServiceTitan, Jobber, Housecall Pro, BuildOps, or Service Fusion. Your platform stays your system of record; we fill the MEP-specific gaps it wasn't designed for and sync data back via API.

Which platforms do you integrate with?

We've built against ServiceTitan, Jobber, and Housecall Pro APIs most often. BuildOps and Service Fusion are on the list too. Discovery calls start with a quick API audit — we'll tell you honestly if the integration you need is feasible before quoting.

Do we really own the extension?

Yes — contractually. The code lives in a repository under your account, the app runs in a cloud account in your name, and the database is standard Postgres you can export anytime. Your field-service platform subscription is separate and unchanged.

How long does a build take?

Most first releases ship in 4–8 weeks. We work in weekly slices, so your team will be clicking through a working integration by week two — not waiting for a big reveal at the end.

What does a build cost?

Every build is custom-quoted with a fixed price before we start. Most first releases land between $2,500 and $15,000 depending on scope and API complexity. There's no hourly meter — if we misjudge the effort, that's on us.

What happens if we cancel the care plan?

The extension keeps running — it's in your cloud account. You'd take over hosting bills (typically $20–50/month) and lose our monitoring, backups, and included hours. Your field-service platform is unaffected.

Get started

Book a free 30-minute discovery call. Bring your field-service tool, the workflow that's stuck in spreadsheets, and we'll tell you honestly whether a custom extension is the right fix.

What happens next

  1. 1.We reply within one business day to schedule your call.
  2. 2.On the call: you walk us through the gap — equipment reporting, complex bids, subcontractor handoffs — and we ask about your current platform's API.
  3. 3.Within a week you get either a fixed-price proposal or an honest 'your platform handles this already.' Both are free.

Best fit: MEP contractors (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) already on ServiceTitan, Jobber, Housecall Pro, BuildOps, or Service Fusion — with a workflow gap that spreadsheets or extra seat licenses are papering over. Not a fit: shops with no platform yet, or venture-scale app ideas.
