Built for electrical contractors
Panel upgrades, rewires, inspections, and service calls -- Pillar handles the scheduling, permits, and paperwork so your team stays focused on the work.
Running an electrical business means managing more than wires
Between permit requirements, multi-day panel upgrades, inspection callbacks, and keeping certifications current, the operational overhead adds up fast. Pillar handles the logistics.
Multi-day jobs need coordination
A 200A panel upgrade is not a one-visit job. Between rough-in, inspection, and final hookup, you need a system that tracks each visit separately within the same work order.
Certifications expire without warning
Electrician licenses and certifications have expiration dates. Sending an unlicensed technician to a job creates liability. You need visibility before it becomes a problem.
Inspection callbacks disrupt the schedule
When an inspection fails, the callback needs to be scheduled quickly without double-booking your team. Conflict detection and drag-and-drop rescheduling make this manageable.
Tools that match how electrical work actually flows
From the initial service call through final inspection, every step has a place in the system.
Multi-Visit Jobs
Create a single job with multiple appointments -- rough-in, inspection, final connection. Each visit has its own status, technician, and checklist.
Drag-and-Drop Scheduling
Move appointments between days and time slots by dragging. Conflict detection flags overlaps before you save.
Equipment Categories
Built-in categories for electrical panels, generators, and EV chargers. Track manufacturer, model, serial number, and warranty per unit.
Estimates with E-Signature
Send professional estimates from your price book. Customers approve via a secure link with electronic signature -- no login required.
Technician Skill Levels
Track skill proficiency from Basic through Expert. The system recommends technicians based on skills and availability for each job.
Mobile-Ready (PWA)
Technicians access jobs, checklists, and customer details from any device. Installable with offline caching -- no app store needed.
A panel upgrade, start to finish
Here is how a typical multi-day electrical job moves through Pillar -- from the customer call to the final sign-off.
Customer calls about a panel upgrade
IntakeCreate the customer record (or pull up their existing profile), log the initial service request, and build an estimate from your price book with line items for materials and labor.
Customer approves the estimate
ApprovalThe customer receives a secure approval link, reviews the scope and pricing, and signs electronically. The approved estimate converts into a job with one click.
Schedule the multi-visit job
SchedulingCreate multiple appointments within the job -- Day 1 for rough-in, Day 2 for inspection, Day 3 for final hookup. Assign technicians and attach checklists to each visit.
Technician completes the work
FieldEach technician opens the appointment on their phone, follows the checklist, marks items complete, and uploads required photos. Time entries are recorded at clock-in and clock-out.
Invoice and collect payment
BillingGenerate the invoice from the completed job, apply any discount codes, and send it to the customer. They pay online through Stripe or via the customer portal.
