Job Tracking Software for Tradespeople and Contractors

Custom job tracking for electricians, plumbers and builders: quotes, scheduling, invoicing and certification.

Electricians, plumbers, builders and other tradespeople need to track jobs from quote to completion — including scheduling, materials, labour, invoicing, and certification. Most rely on notebooks and memory.

Why Tradespeople Need a System

When you’re busy on site, admin falls behind. Quotes don’t get sent. Invoices are late. Jobs overlap and you double-book yourself.

What a Custom Job Tracker Does

  • Quote to invoice: Create quotes, convert to jobs when accepted, generate invoices on completion.
  • Job scheduling: Calendar view of all jobs. No double-bookings. Set reminders for follow-ups.
  • Materials tracking: Log materials per job for accurate costing and quoting future similar jobs.
  • Certification: Track your own certifications (Gas Safe, NICEIC, etc.) and record certificates issued to customers.

A web app works on your phone in the van, on your tablet on site, and on your laptop at home. No app to install, no syncing issues.
