Why Birmingham Builders use TaskDrop

Built around how builders actually work

The West Midlands has a particularly high density of self-employed tradespeople working across the domestic, commercial, and subcontract sectors — all of whom need compliant invoicing every day.

📋
Detailed quotes for extensions

Generate a fully itemised quote for a rear extension, loft conversion, or garage build on WhatsApp. Customer gets a professional PDF. When it's accepted, convert it to a staged invoice schedule.

💷
CIS invoicing as standard

Builders subcontracting under a main contractor need CIS invoices regularly. Tap CIS INVOICE in the menu in WhatsApp — TaskDrop handles the labour/materials split and 20% deduction automatically.

🔁
Stage payments made easy

Large building projects run on stage payments. Create a quote at the start, then raise individual invoices for each stage without losing the job history or retyping customer details.

🧾
VAT on materials and labour

VAT-registered builders deal with complex invoices — materials, labour, plant hire, sub-trades. TaskDrop applies VAT correctly across all line items without manual calculation.

📍
Job reports after completion

Generate a job report on WhatsApp at the end of a project. Useful for snagging records, customer sign-off, and any building warrant documentation needed in Scotland.

💰
Bank details on every invoice

Stage payment due? Your bank details print on every invoice automatically — sort code, account number and reference. Customer pays via their banking app. You confirm payment via WhatsApp.
