Excel vs doing it here
A spreadsheet is ideal if you like seeing the maths and want to keep a running log of jobs. The trade-off is that spreadsheets email badly — customers should still get a PDF. The generator on this site does the numbering, the VAT and the PDF for you, free and with no sign-up.

- Should the electrical certificate be a line on the invoice?
- Yes. Testing and certification is real chargeable time, and showing it separately makes clear the customer is paying for compliance paperwork as well as installation.
- Do electricians need to show a Part P or BS 7671 reference?
- It is not a legal invoicing requirement, but landlords, agents and conveyancing solicitors routinely ask for it, so putting it on the invoice saves a phone call later.
- How should I invoice a rewire?
- In stages — first fix, second fix and test — with each invoice naming the stage it covers. It protects your cash flow and matches how the customer experiences the job.
