The only bit you do
How a quote for handymen gets built.
Walk round with the customer and say the list out loud: TV on the wall, two shelves, the wardrobe to build, a dripping tap. It comes back as one quote with each job priced on its own line.
Say it or photo it
Voice note the list as you walk round, or photo each job. Every little job comes back as its own priced line, so nothing gets forgotten or given away.
It measures, you check
Put a tape in shot, tap two points and it measures. Anything you didn't measure is marked for you to check.
Priced from your rates
Priced from your own rates. Handyman starts you at £60 for the first hour, £40 an hour after that, £85 to hang a TV and a £200 day rate, and you change every figure to yours.
Your price list, day one
Handyman: what a new account starts with
Real UK starting prices for handymen, already in your list on the first day. Every one of them is yours to change, and your rates are what the quotes price from.
| Work | Starter price |
|---|---|
| Handyman first hour | £60/each |
| Assemble flat-pack furniture (per item) | £55/each |
| Hang TV on wall bracket | £85/each |
| Put up shelves (per shelf) | £35/each |
| Handyman day rate | £200/day |
Starting points for 2025 and 2026, meant to be tuned to your patch. Change one in Settings and every future quote uses it.
The materials come with it
Small jobs still need bits: plugs and screws for the shelves, sealant for the bath, a handle set for the door. They come with the lines that need them, so you know what to grab on the way.
You can put a names only list on the customer's copy so they can see what you are supplying, with your buying and your markup kept to yourself.
After you tap Send
Most apps stop at the quote.
Yours keeps going.
A quote is the easy half. The half that eats your evenings is the deposit, the diary, the invoice and the chasing. That is the half InstaQuote does for you.
The deposit
You set the deposit on the quote. The customer pays it by card from the link on their phone, with nothing to install, and it lands in your account through Stripe.
The booking
The deposit books the job. They pick a free slot themselves, they get the confirmation and the reminder, and they can move it themselves from the same link.
The calendar
Your week fills in as the deposits land, and it syncs to Google so the diary on your phone matches the one in the van.
The materials
The take off from the quote is ready to go to your merchants for a price, with your markup on it and kept on your side of the paperwork.
The invoice
Mark the job done and the invoice is drafted for you, priced off the quote with the extras you added on site. One tap and it's gone.
The chasing
If it goes past its date, polite nudges go out in your name until it is paid. Three at most, then it stops and tells you. You are not the bad guy and you are not on the phone.
VAT and CIS
Work for a builder, a contractor or a developer and the CIS deduction and the VAT reverse charge are worked out on the quote and on the invoice. Work straight for a homeowner and they stay off. You set it per customer, not per quote.
The books
On the Accounts plan (£89/mo) it keeps the books behind all of it: expenses, what each job actually made, and your VAT return figures ready for you or your accountant to file with HMRC.

The money questions (the trial, cancelling, your data) are answered on the homepage FAQ, and the how-to guides are in Answers.
Is it quicker than just texting the customer a price?
It is about as quick, and the customer gets a proper quote with your name on it that they can accept with one tap. The job then goes in your calendar and the invoice is drafted when you mark it done.
Can I charge by the hour and by the job on the same quote?
Yes. The first hour and extra hours are their own lines, set jobs like hanging a TV are priced as an item, and a full day sits on your day rate. Mix them however the job needs.
Will it chase people who don't pay for the small jobs?
Yes. Unpaid invoices get a polite reminder on a set schedule, up to three nudges, so a £60 job doesn't quietly go unpaid because it felt too small to chase.
