Why Manchester Builders use TaskDrop
Greater Manchester's sprawling geography — from Wigan to Stockport — means tradespeople often cover wide areas in a day. Fast invoicing from the van saves hours of admin every week.
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.
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.
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-registered builders deal with complex invoices — materials, labour, plant hire, sub-trades. TaskDrop applies VAT correctly across all line items without manual calculation.
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.
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.
