Your own page, free
People hiring a builder want to see finished work before they ring. Your page opens with photos: the extension, the knocked-through kitchen, the loft. Below them go your services, each with a set price, a "from" price, or simply "Ask" for bigger jobs. Add reviews from past customers, the area you cover as a postcode and a number of miles, and badges for your company number and insurer. The Book button lets people ask for a quote, and you approve the visit.
Questions builders ask
What should a builder's invoice include?
Your business name and address, the customer's name and the site address, an invoice number and the date. Then a clear list of the work, such as labour, materials and skip hire, each with a price. Finish with the total, VAT if you are registered, when it is due and your bank details. A limited company should use its full registered name.
Should a builder give a quote or an estimate?
A quote is normally taken as a fixed price for the work you describe, so write down what it covers and what it does not. An estimate is a best guess that can change. For building work, a clear quote with separate lines for labour, materials and extras saves arguments later. If the job grows, send a new quote for the extra work.
Can I ask for a deposit before starting building work?
You can, if the customer agrees to it before the work begins. Put the amount and when it is due on your quote, so there are no surprises. With Easy Invoice you can send an invoice for the deposit first, then a final invoice for the rest when the job is finished.
