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.

Common questions

Should a plumber charge a call-out fee on the invoice?

Yes — show it as its own line and state what it covers. A call-out that quietly includes the first hour of labour is the single most common cause of a queried plumbing invoice.

Do I have to itemise parts on a plumbing invoice?

There is no legal requirement to break parts down individually, but it is far easier to defend a bill that lists a pump, a valve and pipe than one that says "materials".

What should a plumber's payment terms be?

14 days is the norm for domestic work and 30 days for letting agents or commercial customers. Whatever you pick, put it in writing on the invoice — otherwise the statutory default of 30 days applies.
