While you are here

The four words that cost fitters the most money

Nobody rips out a bathroom without being asked for something extra halfway through. A towel rail, a different tile, moving the soil pipe two feet. Doing it is easy. Getting agreement on the price before you do it is the part that pays your mortgage.

Price it, send a link, get it agreed on the spot

Raise a variation against the job, price the lines, and send the customer a link from the landing. They approve a gross figure on a public page and that exact number lands on the invoice, so a Tuesday conversation cannot turn into a dispute at handover.

  • A one-time cryptographic token, not a guessable link
  • Expires after 30 days so a stale price cannot be approved later
  • Approved extras become invoice lines automatically

Deposit before you order the units

You lay out thousands on units, stone and sanitaryware before you earn a penny. Set a deposit on the quote as a percentage or a flat sum, take it by card, and the final invoice arrives with it already netted off.

What the customer bought themselves

Fitting is full of customer-supplied kit: the tap they found online, the tiles from a showroom. Leave it off the invoice and it also comes out of any CIS calculation, because materials are excluded per HMRC rules rather than by you remembering to exclude them.

Check the margin before it leaves

A refit is priced on a lot of small allowances, and one wrong one is invisible until the end. Traddie runs the quote against your own cost rates and flags the estimated cost being over the quote value, the margin sitting under your target, or labour eating most of the job.

A week of work on one calendar

Multi-day fits, the plumber and the sparky coming in on the right days, and the day trip to fix somebody else’s leak, all on the same week rather than in three places.

Purchase orders that get reconciled

Raise a purchase order to the merchant, chase it when the units have not turned up, and scan the supplier invoice against it when they do, so what you ordered and what you were billed are actually compared.

Time back

The small things that keep a refit on the money

A bathroom fit is fifty small decisions and about eight of them cost money. These are the bits that make sure the eight get charged for.

A variation takes a minute

Price it stood in the room, send the link, carry on. The customer agrees in their own time and the figure is committed on both sides.

The quote check runs before you send

Cost above value, margin under target, labour eating the job, no materials entered, a labour rate still at zero.

Deposit, then final, netted off

The final invoice already knows what was paid up front, so nobody works out the balance twice and gets two answers.

Photograph the merchant invoice

Scan a supplier invoice against its purchase order instead of keying it, and receipts land on the job rather than in the van.

The whole job in one place

Quote, variations, purchase orders, photos, invoices and payments against the same job, so handover is a page rather than a hunt.

Chasing on a ladder you set

A reminder before the due date, then nudge, firm and final, without you having to be the one who asks twice.
