Invoice INV-014 for £350 sent to Dave Smith. ✉️Wedge
Dave Smith paid £350 for INV-014. 💰Liverpool building work follows the city's two-track pattern — heavy CIS subcontract demand on the Knowledge Quarter and Liverpool Waters new-build pipelines for groundworkers, brickies, and carpenters under main contractors, and direct-to-homeowner refurbishment work on the Georgian terraced stock in Sefton Park, Aigburth, and Toxteth. Loft conversions and side returns on the inner-city Victorian terraces commonly run £30k–£70k with staged payment schedules. Day rates are similar to Manchester on residential work and a touch higher on commercial fit-out specialists. Most independent builders run both CIS and direct-to-homeowner flows in the same week.

You've won a loft extension job — £18,500 inclusive of materials, labour, and Building Control. The customer wants to pay in stages: 20% deposit on signature, 25% at first fix, 25% at second fix, 20% on completion, 10% retention released after 30 days. Message Wedge: "Quote Tom Williams £18,500 for loft extension at 22 Beech Close, broken into 20% deposit, 25% first fix, 25% second fix, 20% completion, 10% retention." Wedge generates the quote with the schedule clearly laid out. Tom signs digitally and pays the £3,700 deposit immediately — £3,663 lands in your account. As you hit each stage, you message Wedge to send the next invoice. The retention sits in customer's account; you message Wedge to invoice for it after 30 days. Total Wedge fees on the £18,500 job: £185. No subscription you have to pay even on a slow month.

Yes — flag CIS deduction per invoice when it applies; the format adapts automatically with labour/materials split and 20% deduction on labour only. Direct-to-homeowner invoices send with a Stripe link and bank details. Same WhatsApp number, both flows.
Yes. Send Wedge the schedule once ("20% deposit, 30% first fix, 50% completion"), and we'll generate each stage invoice when you tell us the stage is done. The customer sees the schedule on the original quote so there are no surprises.
If you subcontract under CIS, mention it when invoicing ("CIS deduction at 20%") and Wedge will show the gross amount, the 20% CIS deduction, and the net amount payable. The contractor pays you the net; HMRC paperwork stays your responsibility.
Yes. When you set up staged payments, include the retention as the last stage (e.g. "10% retention released after 30 days"). Customer pays everything else upfront; you message Wedge to send the retention invoice when the period ends.
Yes — useful when customers want to see exactly what they're paying for. Tell Wedge "£4,500 materials, £6,000 labour" and the invoice breaks them out as line items. You can also add reverse-charge VAT if applicable.
If you're VAT-registered, yes — standard 20% VAT on most domestic work. Wedge calculates and shows VAT automatically. For specific reduced-rate work (renovations of empty homes, conversions), you can override to 5% per line item.
When a customer asks for an addition ("actually, can you add a roof window?"), message Wedge to send a separate change-order invoice. Customer agrees and pays in WhatsApp — no awkward conversations about scope creep.
