Why Edinburgh Electricians use TaskDrop

Built around how electricians actually work

Edinburgh's property market commands premium prices, and customers — including landlords and Airbnb operators — expect professional paperwork. A PDF invoice sent the same day a job ends reflects well on any tradesperson.

📄
Certificates and invoices together

Invoice the job and generate a job report in the same WhatsApp conversation. Useful for electrical installation certificates and any documentation your customer needs after completion.

🔁
Quote to invoice instantly

Send a detailed quote before the rewire starts. Convert it to an invoice when you're done. All the line items carry over — materials, labour, VAT — without retyping anything.

💷
CIS for commercial electrical work

Electrical contractors working on commercial or new-build projects under a main contractor can generate CIS invoices via WhatsApp. Labour and materials split automatically.

🏃
Invoice from the van

Consumer unit upgrade done. Tools in the van. Invoice sent before you leave the street. Customer receives a professional branded PDF on WhatsApp — nothing to print, nothing to post.

🧾
VAT invoices in seconds

VAT-registered electricians add VAT to any invoice automatically. Correct figures, correct format, HMRC-compliant — in the time it takes to load a quoting app.

💰
