Durham, NC: One Plumbing License, One Operator
A one-operator-per-city license for plumbing businesses in Durham (Durham County), part of the Southeast. Full Loop runs the acquisition and operations for whoever claims the Durham market.
Durham isn't interchangeable with the next city over, and Full Loop doesn't treat it that way. Durham sits roughly 122 miles northeast of Charlotte. The next-closest major metro is Philadelphia, about 354 miles southwest. Durham is located in Durham County, North Carolina, a market of roughly 245,475 residents. Real coordinates, not a copy-pasted region tag.
Coastal hurricane season June-November; HVAC and pest demand April-October. That's the backdrop the platform is tuned against here — SEO, the AI sales agent, and lead capture aimed at Durham itself and the nearby Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro, and more, not a one-size-fits-all national footprint. By the population data behind this page, Durham is the 4th-largest of the 21 North Carolina metros Full Loop tracks.
Within North Carolina, that puts you in the same competitive set as plumbing operators in Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro, Winston-Salem — the Durham partner who systematizes lead capture and follow-up first is the one who compounds a lead in every one of those markets.
One license, one plumbing operator, one city: Durham. Everything the platform builds — leads, reviews, search presence — belongs to whoever holds it, and the same offer stands in every other unclaimed NC market.

How does the dispatch system prioritize emergency calls?+
Emergency calls are categorized by severity: active water leaks and sewage backups are highest priority, followed by no hot water and failed fixtures. The system evaluates available technicians based on proximity, current job progress, and relevant skills. For the highest-severity emergencies, the system can interrupt a non-emergency scheduled job if the technician is closer, automatically rescheduling the displaced appointment and notifying that client. Emergency response time metrics are tracked per technician and overall, giving you data to continuously improve your response speed.
Can the system manage a flat-rate digital price book?+
Yes. The price book is a central feature that stores every plumbing task with its flat-rate price. Tasks are organized by category — drains, water heaters, faucets, toilets, pipes, gas lines — and can be updated centrally when material costs change. Technicians access the price book on their mobile app during each call, ensuring consistent pricing across your team. The system supports good-better-best options for tasks that warrant them and can include photos and descriptions that help technicians explain each option to clients. Price book analytics show which tasks are performed most often, which generate the most revenue, and which have the highest margins.
