Plan your bathroom or whole-house plumbing on a wall or floor photo and hand your plumber a polished Plumbing Brief PDF. HOW IT WORKS Photo a wall or floor plan, start from a blank grid, or scan the space with LiDAR. Set the scale with one reference line. Place fixtures and the pipes route themselves to your supply, drain and vent points. Check the warnings. Export. AUTO-ROUTING Every fixture gets its hot and cold supply, its waste or soil drain and its vent run automatically. Drag any run to take it manual. Move a fixture and its pipes follow. FIXTURES AND ROUGH-IN 25 fixture types, from WC, basin, sink, shower, bath and bidet to appliances, valves, meter and floor drain, each with region-typical rough-in heights. RULES BY REGION Live warnings for missing traps, insufficient fall and undersized connections, checked against EN 806 and EN 12056 (EU), BS EN 806 with Building Regulations Part G and H (UK), IPC and UPC (US, as a planning reference only, not jurisdiction-compliant) and AS/NZS 3500 (AU/NZ). Where a check is not modelled for your region, the app says so. PROPERTIES One water system per place. Scan a whole house with LiDAR into a floor plan, then group rooms and bathrooms under a property with a shared region profile. THE PLUMBING BRIEF A PDF for your plumber with surface sketches, a fixture schedule, a pipe list with sizes and materials, the warnings and a "questions for my plumber" checklist. PNG and CSV export too. FLOOR HEATING (separate purchase, included in Trade) Plan underfloor heating on a LiDAR scan or on a floor plan file (.roomsketch) from PipeSketch or WireSketch. Sort rooms into storeys with a manifold each, choose the floor system and pipe, and get loop layouts. EU (EN standards) and UK homes also get room-by-room heat-load estimates and flow rates using the EN 12831 and EN 1264 methods with manufacturer-typical output coefficients, plus heat source advice; elsewhere, layout planning only. The Parts tab lists planning quantities, from pipe to manifolds, to check with your installer and share as CSV or PDF. Build-up advice says what the floor needs room for. PipeSketch does not size the heat source, pump or mixing valve. A read-only sample home shows a plan and its parts list before you buy. TRADE MODE (separate purchase) Turn a plan into a priced document: customers, a price book, estimates by default and binding offers when you choose, with PDF export. Offers can include the floor heating parts. You write the terms; the app never adds legal text. KNOWLEDGE BASE Plain-language entries on the standards and the formulas the app uses, including what it deliberately simplifies. 9 LANGUAGES English, German, French, Dutch, Turkish, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Portuguese. PRIVACY AND ADS Your planning data stays on your device. No accounts, no cloud. The free version is ad-supported, with consent where required, and any one-time purchase removes all ads. PipeSketch is a planning tool and does not replace a professional. All plumbing and heating work must be designed, verified and carried out by a qualified installer in accordance with local regulations. ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | PipeSketch Pro | $14.99 | one-time | | PipeSketch Trade | $29.99 | one-time | | Floor Heating Planner | $9.99 | one-time | | Hot Water Planner | $7.99 | one-time | ## Is PipeSketch safe?

The Plumbing Brief includes the list too. • Trade: add the parts to an offer, priced from your own price book, with installation per m². • The full list is for EU (EN standards) and UK homes. Elsewhere, the list has the pipe and the manifolds. Floor Heating plans homes with several storeys. • Each storey has its own manifold, and loops stay on their storey. • Heat loads allow for heated rooms above and below, and can use each room's own ceiling height. • A rescan keeps matching rooms and their settings. Choose your floor system, pipe and heat source. • Wet screed (tacker or knob panels), dry system boards and thin layer each have their own output figures and parts. Dry system boards and thin layer use one maker's unverified table each, marked Provisional. • Pipe names now show size and the material you choose, such as 16×2 PE-X. • Choose the heat source to see whether a mixing station is usually fitted. PipeSketch does not size the heat source, pump or mixing valve. • Heat loads and heat source settings cover EU (EN standards) and UK homes. Elsewhere, Floor Heating plans the layout. • Enter the height from bare floor to top of screed to see what the floor needs room for, such as insulation. Floor Heating is easier to start, with or without LiDAR. • After you buy Floor Heating, a new screen takes you straight to planning. • A "Plan floor heating" shortcut stays on your Plans list until your first plan is ready. • Without LiDAR, you can import a floor plan file (.roomsketch) shared from PipeSketch or WireSketch. • Before you buy, try a read-only sample home with its plan and parts list. • Loop counts read correctly, as in "1 loop". Pipe plans are easier to read, on screen and in the Plumbing Brief. • Hot and cold pipes from one supply point are drawn side by side, so cold no longer hides under hot. • Auto-routing puts hot on the left and cold on the right, as usually fitted. • With no vent point placed, the vent rises above the drain. • Length labels no longer pile up. ### 1.2.1 — 2026-10-09 Floor Heating is clearer before you buy. • The Floor Heating purchase screen now says up front that planning needs a floor scan with a LiDAR sensor: iPhone 12 Pro or a later Pro model, or iPad Pro from 2020 on. • On a device without LiDAR, it warns you before you buy, and explains that a purchase also unlocks Floor Heating on your other devices with the same Apple Account. ### 1.2 — 2026-09-30 Rooms move between PipeSketch and WireSketch. • With both apps on the same iPhone or iPad, rooms you save with a photo and a scale show up in the other app. No file to send. Tap the banner to see what arrived and choose what to import. • A shared house arrives as one property. Each room becomes its own project with its name and room type, and the floor plan comes along when there is one. Opening a .roomsketch file does the same. • Only photos and measurements cross over. Fixtures, pipes and prices stay in the app you drew them in. • Needs the latest version of both apps. Scald protection. • PipeSketch warns when a bath, shower or basin needs scald protection under your standard and no mixing valve is drawn. Where your standard is not modelled, it says so and leaves the call to a licensed plumber. • The Brief PDF checklist asks the plumber to confirm mixing or tempering valves where they are required. ### 1.1 — 2026-09-10 Trade is safer for you and your customer. • New documents are estimates, not binding offers. Switch the document type when you mean a binding offer. • Before you share a document or mark it as sent, PipeSketch checks that it carries your own terms and your company details. For private customers it also asks you to confirm that the consumer information is included. The app writes no legal text for you. • Totals say whether VAT is included. Discount and currency are validated. Honesty and privacy. • The Brief PDF names the standard and edition it checks, and what it does not check. • Sharing a project no longer includes the property's location or your notes. • Ads start only after consent, in every region. • Onboarding is now fully translated in all nine languages. Also new: more apps by the developer, under About. ### 1.0 — 2026-09-02 No release notes. ## Apps similar to PipeSketch | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Basement Sketch 3D: Planner](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/basement-sketch-3d-planner/id6793255685) | — | Free | Productivity | | [Volter Electrical Diagrams](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/volter-electrical-diagrams/id6801025873) | — | Free | Productivity | | [Hjarni Notes: AI Memory](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hjarni-notes-ai-memory/id6761733903) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Productivity | | [F-gas Invio CamereCom](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/f-gas-invio-camerecom/id1484045248) | — | Free | Productivity | | [G-Code Viewer & Converter](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/g-code-viewer-and-converter/id1612348312) | 3.0 (2) | $1.99 | Productivity | | [Voice Sheet](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/voice-sheet/id6743374254) | 2.0 (1) | Free | Productivity | ## More apps by Aydin Can Polatkan - [ColorFeel - Mood Tracker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/colorfeel-mood-tracker/id6744988415) - [Moofment - for VanMoof riders](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/moofment-for-vanmoof-riders/id6746488971) - [Fotoelektron - Solar Club](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/fotoelektron-solar-club/id6749157176) - [RenovMate](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/renovmate/id6753132865) - [ValueVue - Price Tracker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/valuevue-price-tracker/id6755720023) - [Offline Ready](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/offline-ready/id6757697040) All apps by Aydin Can Polatkan: https://appshunter.io/developer/1810330156 ## Related topics [plumbing world](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/plumbing-world) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
