Water readings on scraps of paper
Chlorine, pH and alkalinity readings scribbled in a notebook and lost before they reach the office. Log water chemistry on site and store it against the pool and customer.

Sound familiar?
The day-to-day headaches pool & spa engineers tell us about most — and how Gaffer fixes them.
Service visits slip through the net
Regular pool and spa services are easy to forget until a customer chases. Gaffer schedules recurring visits and reminds you before each one is due.
Slow to quote a pump or heater swap
Customers want a price for new equipment while you are still at the site. Send a tidy quote from your phone and win the work before you leave.

Common questions
Can I record water chemistry and commissioning in Gaffer?
Yes. The Pool & Spa Engineer Trade Pack includes water chemistry logs, equipment inspections and commissioning records you can complete on site and store against the job and customer.
Does it work offline at the poolside?
Yes. The field app is offline-first, so you can capture test readings, photos and inspection notes in a plant room with no signal and everything syncs when you are back online.
Will it connect to my accounting software?
Yes. Invoices and customers sync with Xero and QuickBooks, so there is no double entry.
