Word vs doing it here
A Word file is ideal if you want full control of the layout, or you already keep your paperwork in Word. The trade-off is that you number and total everything yourself, and you have to remember to export as PDF before sending. The generator on this site does the numbering, the VAT and the PDF for you, free and with no sign-up.

- Should a carpenter charge per day or per item?
- Per item for repeatable work such as hanging doors, and per day for fitting that depends on how square the building is. Many invoices sensibly contain both.
- How do I invoice for bespoke joinery made off site?
- Show workshop manufacture as its own line separate from on-site fitting, and take a deposit that covers your materials before cutting starts.
- Who pays for ironmongery the customer chose?
- Whoever supplied it. If you bought it, invoice it as its own line at the price you are charging; if they supplied it, note that on the invoice.
