Irrigation websites for Jobber that protect install leads

What breaks first
What's broken on most irrigation websites
Most irrigation sites still send repairs, installs, startups, and blowouts through one generic request path. We end up calling back to learn whether this is an active leak, a low-ticket seasonal service, or a larger install opportunity worth protecting. That slows follow-up while the highest-value buyer keeps calling whoever sounds faster and more organized.
Cost of delay
A weak first reply can cost the install project, the higher-margin seasonal route, and the repeat service relationship that should have followed.

What the connected website changes
What a Jobber-connected irrigation website does instead
The website separates emergency leaks, seasonal service, and new system installs before the handoff starts. On the native path, Jobber receives a Request through the documented request or booking experience. On the custom path, the site can use Jobber's OAuth authorization-code flow and GraphQL API so the Client, Property, and Request record include cleaner service-type and route detail before the office responds.
Native path
Use Jobber's native request path when the company mainly needs a faster handoff into the office workflow.
API or managed intake
Use the GraphQL path when the website needs seasonal triage, leak urgency screening, or install-versus-service routing before the request reaches Jobber.
Connection patterns
How the connection works
Native Jobber Request intake
The website sends the buyer through Jobber's native request or booking flow so the office sees a Request right away. This fits when the business can do the rest of qualification inside Jobber.
When to use
Choose this when the irrigation team wants the fastest lead handoff without a deeper front-end qualification layer.
Custom irrigation intake + Jobber GraphQL
The website captures service type, leak urgency, address, and notes before a backend uses Jobber's OAuth authorization-code flow and GraphQL API. That keeps install opportunities from arriving like the same message as a blowout request.
When to use
Choose this when repairs, installs, startups, and blowouts need different routing before the callback.

We usually find 3 Jobber handoff leaks on irrigation sites.
- We keep seeing seasonal blowouts and higher-value install leads dropped into the same callback path.
- We keep seeing the form skip leak urgency, address, and system context until after the lead lands.

Do we have to start with the Jobber API?
What if our current site keeps burying install opportunities?
We already have Jobber. Why change the website?

What lands in Jobber first?
See the tailored Jobber demo for irrigation
We will show where the current irrigation handoff breaks and what the website should capture before the lead reaches Jobber.
If we're still making install leads compete with routine seasonal service in one vague request path, we need to fix that before anything goes live.
