Why Edinburgh Handymen use TaskDrop
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.
Handymen often do 3–5 jobs a day — fitting curtain poles, fixing fences, hanging doors. TaskDrop lets you invoice each one in 60 seconds from WhatsApp, before you drive to the next job.
Quote a customer before you arrive — send a WhatsApp voice note describing what's needed and a rough price. Formalise it into a PDF quote when you're there. Accept, convert, done.
Regular customers — weekly landlord jobs, maintenance contracts — are stored automatically. Their details are there every time. No re-entering names, addresses, and phone numbers.
Accept cash and mark invoices as paid in WhatsApp. Or your bank details print on every invoice so customers can pay by bank transfer. Either way, your records update automatically for tax time.
Log any materials you buy — a trip to Screwfix, a piece of timber — against each job as an expense. Useful for knowing what you actually made on each visit.
TaskDrop sends automatic reminders if an invoice isn't paid. You don't have to feel awkward asking for money — the reminder goes out on a schedule, politely, without you lifting a finger.
