InvoiceWhat to include on a handyman invoice
- Labor: hours worked times your hourly rate, or a flat price per job
- Materials and parts, ideally with a short description
- Call-out or trip fee, if you charge one
- Job address and date in the client box or notes
- Warranty on your work, if you offer one
Labor and materials on separate lines
Customers trust an invoice more when labor and materials are split. It shows you are not overcharging for parts and makes it easy to explain the price. If you mark up materials, keep the markup reasonable and include it in the materials line.
Tips for handymen
- Create the invoice on your phone before you leave the job, and get paid on the spot.
- Keep material receipts in case a customer asks.
- For bigger jobs, send a quote first and ask for a deposit to cover materials.
