Gaffer for
plasterers.
Plastering is priced on the wall, paid on the day, and most of it comes through the same three builders. Gaffer prices from your own rates in the van, records the damp survey and the scratch coat before anything gets skimmed, and gets the invoice to the builder the same afternoon with a card link on it rather than at the end of the month. Quote, schedule, record the work, invoice and get paid — with the 20 trade documents plasterers 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.


Priced quote templates for plasterers, your own price book and good-better-best options. Customers accept and pay a deposit from their phone.
20 trade documents ready for plasterers — 7 written for this trade, 13 shared with others — filled in on the phone, signed on site and emailed as a PDF before you leave.
One tap raises the invoice from the accepted quote, nets off the deposit and sends a Pay Now link. Reminders chase for you.
Finished jobs surface follow-up work automatically — the room you did not do, the quote they never answered, the customer who has gone quiet.
A re-skim and render, end to end

20 trade documents, ready for plasterers.
7 of them are written for this trade and 13 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.
