Gaffer for
tilers.
Tiling is judged on the ten square metres somebody can see and blamed for the substrate underneath it. When a wet room leaks, the only question is whether the tanking was done and whether anyone photographed it. Gaffer keeps the substrate assessment, moisture test and waterproofing record on the job, and prices per square metre from your own rates instead of a guess in a notebook. Quote, schedule, record the work, invoice and get paid — with the 16 trade documents tilers 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 tilers, your own price book and good-better-best options. Customers accept and pay a deposit from their phone.
16 trade documents ready for tilers — 9 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.
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 wet room, end to end

16 trade documents, ready for tilers.
9 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.
