The problem

A ProPress, a K-400 drain machine, and an inspection camera are the first things a thief grabs, and without itemized proof insurance pays pennies on the dollar. RIDGID's Lifetime Service Agreement is real money, but only if the tool is registered with proof. And a year of tool purchases is a Section 179 deduction you can't claim from memory. Spreadsheets never survive the first busy week.

Tools we see most in your trade: RIDGID ProPress & press tools, K-400/K-750 drain machines, inspection cameras, Milwaukee M18, SeeSnake.

No receipt? No problem.Snapproof estimates the tool’s value from the brand and model, so the gear you bought years ago still counts toward a claim and your total.

Built for plumbers

The tools you can’t work without.Covered before they fail or walk.

Multiple trucks, one shop

Tag tools to each truck and the shop bin. A 5am break-in becomes a same-morning claim instead of a week of guessing what was inside.

RIDGID warranty, actually used

The Lifetime Service Agreement is worth real money. Snapproof keeps the receipt and serial with RIDGID's claim link, so a failed ProPress or SeeSnake gets serviced free.

Deductions you'd otherwise miss

Press tools and machines add up fast. Snapproof exports a year-by-year Section 179 PDF for your CPA in one tap.

What it looks like in the field

A bad morning,handled in two taps.

Picture your ProPress giving out mid-job. Instead of buying a new one, you pull it up in Snapproof, tap the RIDGID claim link, and the receipt and serial are already attached. Warranty service, not a $1,500 surprise.

Customer stories

Truck got hit.Got paid in full.

Truck got hit in March. Came out at 5am to find the side window busted and most of my Milwaukees gone. State Farm wanted an itemized list. I had Snapproof open in the parking lot, generated the PDF, and sent it before the cop finished the report. Got paid replacement value on every tool. Saved me about $14k versus guessing from memory.
Mark D.
Electrician, Texas
My truck got broken into and insurance paid me 40% of value because I couldn't prove what was in it. I'd tried Sortly before and gave up after 12 tools because typing every model and serial took forever. Got 80 tools into Snapproof in one afternoon.

$30,000

is the average contractor truck-theft loss.

Less than 25% of stolen equipment comes back. Without records, insurance pays depreciated value, not what you paid.

100+

tool brands with warranty claim links pre-loaded.

Snapproof calculates each warranty expiration on save and reminds you 30 and 7 days before it lapses.

30 sec

to document a tool: photo, serial, receipt, warranty, price.

Snap three photos and the AI does the rest. Most contractors log 50 to 100 tools in an afternoon.

FAQ

Questions plumbers ask.Answered.

I tried an inventory app before and gave up. Why is this different?

Apps like Sortly make you type the brand, model, serial, date, retailer, and price for every tool, about 3 to 5 minutes each, which is why most people quit halfway. Snapproof is three photos and roughly 30 seconds per tool. The AI reads the rest. Most contractors log 50 to 100 tools in an afternoon.

How do I claim a stolen press tool or drain machine?

Insurance wants serials, receipts, and values. Snapproof captures them from three photos, so high-ticket items like a ProPress or SeeSnake are documented to full replacement cost.

How do I use RIDGID's Lifetime Service Agreement?

You need the tool registered with proof of purchase. Snapproof stores the receipt, serial, and warranty details with each tool and pre-loads RIDGID's claim link, so filing an LSA claim is quick.

Can Snapproof help with Section 179 tax deductions?

Yes. Snapproof captures each tool's purchase date and price as you add it, then exports a year-by-year PDF with subtotals and a grand total in one tap, exactly what your CPA needs for Section 179 and depreciation.

What if I don't have receipts for my tools?

You don't need them. Snapproof estimates each tool's value from the brand and model, so the gear you bought years ago still counts toward an insurance claim and your inventory total. Add a receipt later if you have one and it strengthens the record, but it's never required to get a value.

Free to start. One claim pays for it.

Snapproof is free for your first 5 tools, no card required. Pro is $99 a year. A single approved warranty claim on a $300 tool, or one insurance payout after a break-in, covers years of it.
