Gaffer for
landscape gardeners.

Landscaping is a design-and-build season followed by a maintenance round that has to invoice itself every month. Gaffer holds the design record, the planting record and the hard landscaping record on one job, keeps the invasive species record and pesticide application record where an insurer can find them, and puts the maintenance customers on recurring invoices that go out without you touching them. Quote, schedule, record the work, invoice and get paid — with the 19 trade documents landscape gardeners actually use already in the account.

Where two names look alike they are different documents — a notification is not the certificate that follows it, and two schemes covering the same work each want their own form. If you think one is missing, or that one of these is redundant, say so and we will change the pack.

Certificates & forms

19 trade documents, ready for landscape gardeners.

12 of them are written for this trade and 7 are shared with others — an EICR is an EICR whoever issues it. Every one is a real digital form, not a blank template.

Each one is a proper digital form: the fields that document actually needs, signature capture, photo attachments, a PDF the customer can keep, and — where it has one — an expiry date Gaffer tracks. Completed on the phone, offline if it has to be.
