Can I quote by day rate?

Yes. Save your day rates as line items (skilled plasterer, labourer, second man) and add them per day. Or price the whole job — Fixxa does both.

How do I show materials mark-up?

List materials as a separate line at your supply-plus-margin price. Customers who want detail see it. Your labour line stays clean.

How do I take a deposit?

Send a deposit invoice with a faster payment link. The customer taps and pays by card. You get the money before you buy the bags.

Does Fixxa help with Making Tax Digital?

Yes. Every quote, invoice and payment is a digital record. When MTD quarterly updates apply, your income totals are ready.

How much does Fixxa cost?

£19.99/month or £190/year (2 months free). 14-day free trial, no card needed.

Key benefits

Day rate or job price, no arguments

Save both structures. Some customers want a fixed price, some understand day rates. Give them what they want without redoing the maths.

Materials priced properly

Bag count, PVA, beads, scrim — line them out separately so materials mark-up is visible and defensible.

Same-day quote wins the job

A quote written in the van at 4pm and sent on WhatsApp beats an email from a competitor three days later. Every time.

Digital records for MTD

Every job is stored. When quarterly updates apply, your income figures are ready.

Common quoting and invoicing mistakes

Underquoting materials

Multi-finish bags, PVA, scrim, beads add up. Save them as line items with realistic supply-plus-margin pricing.

Vague day rates

'One day' is not a line item. Write it as '1 day skilled plasterer at £X' so customers see the value, not just the number.

No deposit on materials-heavy jobs

Render and dry lining tie up hundreds in materials. Deposit invoice with a card link means you're not funding the customer's job.

Forgetting scaffold or access costs

External work needs it and someone pays for it. Line-item it out so it's not an argument at invoice time.

Practical workflow tips

Save your standard materials pack (multi-finish, PVA, scrim, beads) as reusable line items
Have a fixed day rate for plasterer, labourer and second man saved as separate lines
Attach a photo of the finished wall to the WhatsApp invoice
For render jobs, always quote scaffold or access separately

Trust and compliance

Trade certifications (CSCS, K-rend and similar system approvals) remain the plasterer's responsibility. Fixxa handles the quoting, invoicing and payment side of the business.
