Gaffer for
pool and spa engineers.
A pool is a weekly commitment dressed up as an occasional one. A hotel wants the water chemistry log kept, the PWTAG safety inspection done and the legionella risk assessment current, and it wants all of it in one place the day an environmental health officer walks in. Gaffer keeps each pool as its own site with every visit, reading and certificate against it. Quote, schedule, certify, invoice and get paid — with the 13 trade documents pool and spa engineers 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 pool and spa engineers, your own price book and good-better-best options. Customers accept and pay a deposit from their phone.
13 trade documents ready for pool and spa engineers — 6 written for this trade, 7 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.
Certificates and services with an expiry date become next year’s work. Gaffer texts the customer a booking link before it lapses.

13 trade documents, ready for pool and spa engineers.
6 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.
