Sound familiar?

Built for one van, not an office.

“Pricing jobs at the kitchen table after dinner”

Fixed: Quote on site in minutes. Your rate card does the maths before you've left the drive.

“Sent the quote, then silence”

Fixed: See the second they open it, and get a nudge with a ready-made WhatsApp when it's time to chase.

“Buying materials before you've seen a penny”

Fixed: They accept, the deposit invoice goes straight out with your bank details. Materials covered.

Deposits that invoice themselves

Choose a deposit. When they accept, the invoice is raised with your bank details, and the final bill deducts it.

Why it matters

Slow, vague quotes cost you money.

Jobs go to whoever replies first, and unclear prices are where payment disputes start. QuoteEdge gets a clear, itemised price in writing, with the deposit agreed, before you lift a tool.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Who is QuoteEdge for?

UK tradespeople and small building firms: builders, electricians, plumbers, plasterers, roofers, decorators, landscapers, fitters, scaffolders and groundworkers. It works for a sole trader on a phone and for a team in an office.

Do my customers need an app or an account?

No. They get a link by WhatsApp, text or email, read the quote on any phone or computer, and accept it by typing their name.

Where do the prices come from?

From your own rate card. QuoteEdge gives you typical UK starting prices for your trade, and you change any of them in seconds. The AI suggests lines and quantities; it never makes up a price.

I'm not VAT registered. Will it add VAT?

No. If you are not VAT registered, there is no VAT line on your quotes or invoices. If you are, VAT is calculated to the penny.

How do deposits and payment terms work?

Set your own payment terms for homeowners and for trade customers, and choose a deposit on any quote. When the customer accepts, the deposit invoice is created automatically, and the final invoice deducts it.

Does it work on my phone and on a computer?

Yes. QuoteEdge runs in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer. Start a quote in the van and finish it at the desk.

What happens after the free trial?

You get 7 days free with no card needed, and it extends to 14 days as soon as you send your first quote, so your customer has time to say yes. After that it is £40 a month for the whole business, or £400 a year. Your first payment has a 30-day money-back guarantee, and you can cancel any time.

Do I have to type in all my prices and details?

No. Upload a few old quotes, invoices or your price list (PDFs, phone photos or a spreadsheet) and QuoteEdge fills in your business details, bank details, terms and rate card for you to check. Your customers' details on those old quotes are ignored and the files aren't kept. You can also import your customer list from a spreadsheet.

Get your evenings back. Send your first quote tonight.

Set up takes about two minutes. Your trade's rate card is ready and waiting, so the first quote is quick.
