How it works

Three steps. Sixty seconds.

Electrical jobs range from a single socket replacement to a full rewire across multiple days. Whether you're a sole trader doing domestic work or a subcontractor on new-build sites, the invoicing requirement is the same: professional, prompt, and compliant.

  1. 1
    Open WhatsApp and tap the menu

    Tap a button in the menu — Invoice, Quote, or Job Report. Or send a voice note describing the job, or snap a photo of a handwritten job sheet. TaskDrop handles the rest in about 60 seconds.

  2. 2
    Confirm and send

    TaskDrop shows you a preview. Everything correct? Hit send. A professionally branded PDF arrives on your customer's phone immediately.

  3. 3
    Get paid

    Customer pays via their banking app using your sort code and account number — money arrives same day. Or by manual bank transfer. Your records update automatically. Done before you've started the van.

Note: NICEIC, NAPIT and ELECSA numbers included automatically. Add your NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA number to your profile once — it prints in the footer of every invoice, quote, and job report you send automatically. No extra steps.

Features

Built for how electricians actually work

TaskDrop handles both. Tap a button or send a voice note in WhatsApp, describe the job, and a branded PDF is back in 60 seconds — with your scheme number in the footer, VAT calculated if you're registered, and bank details printed automatically for the customer.

Add your NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA number to your profile once — it prints in the footer of every invoice, quote, and job report automatically.

Quote & Invoice

Send quotes before the job, convert to invoice after with one WhatsApp message. All details carry over.

Itemised Breakdowns

List materials, cable, consumer units and labour on separate lines. Customers see exactly what they're paying for.

CIS for Site Work

Electrical contractors working under a main contractor — CIS deduction calculated automatically. 20% on labour only, never materials.

Expense Tracking

Log materials and van costs instantly on WhatsApp. Tax records built automatically — useful for quarterly MTD submissions.

Why it matters

Why UK electricians get paid slower than they should

Electrical work is often high-value and high-trust — customers want professional documentation, and landlords and letting agents need it for compliance. An invoice that looks like a professional business sent it gets paid faster and builds repeat custom.

TaskDrop doesn't change how you work. It just makes the paperwork part happen in 60 seconds instead of 20 minutes — from your phone, from the van, before you've left the job.

Domestic electricians typically charge £50–£90/hour depending on region and job type. EICR testing, consumer unit upgrades, and rewires are among the most common high-value jobs. Commercial and new-build electrical subcontracting is the other major segment, where CIS invoicing is a daily requirement.

Common questions from UK electricians

Can I include my NICEIC or NAPIT number on the invoice?

Yes. Add your scheme membership number to your profile once and it prints in the footer of every invoice automatically — customers, landlords and letting agents all get it without you typing it each time.

How do I handle EICR and testing invoices?

The same way as any other job — describe the work, list the hours and your rate, add any materials. TaskDrop formats the invoice correctly. EICR certificates must be issued separately through your scheme.
