Invoicing Tips for Tradies
If you're a tradie, whether you're a plumber, electrician, carpenter, or handyman, chances are you'd rather be on the tools than chasing payments. Invoicing doesn’t have to be a headache.
Make It Clear and Simple
Many tradies lose time (and money) due to unclear invoices. Your invoice should always include:
- Client name and job site address
- Date the job was completed
- Clear breakdown of work done and materials used
- Total cost and payment deadline
Use Quotes to Set Expectations
Sending a professional quote upfront builds trust and avoids disputes. With BillBench™, you can turn quotes into invoices in one click.
Include Photos for Peace of Mind
Clients love seeing before-and-after shots. BillBench™ lets you attach photos to your quotes and invoices to show what work was done - great for insurance, strata, or real estate clients.
Offer Easy Payment Options
The easier you make it to pay, the faster you get paid. Mention if you accept:
- Bank transfer (include BSB and account number)
- PayID or credit card
- Cash on job (if applicable)
Look More Professional
Even if you're sole tradie, a clean, branded invoice helps you stand out and look legitimate. With BillBench™, you can add your logo, ABN, and even digital signature.
