A four-room repaint with materials separated
You've been asked to repaint the downstairs of a 1930s semi — hallway, living room, dining room, and kitchen. Quote: £1,800 for labour across four days, plus £320 for materials (Dulux Trade emulsion, brilliant white woodwork paint, sundries) — £2,120 total. Customer wants the materials line itemised so they know what they're paying for. Message Wedge: "Quote Emma Reid £1,800 labour plus £320 materials for four-room repaint at 22 Larch Avenue." Wedge generates a clean quote with both lines, sends it on WhatsApp, and Emma signs digitally. When the job's done, you message Wedge again to convert to an invoice. Emma pays £2,120; £2,098.80 lands in your account — £21.20 fee. No monthly subscription. If you only do two jobs in a slow January, you only pay 1% on those two.

Frequently asked questions
Can I quote room-by-room and bundle into one invoice?+
Yes — message Wedge with the room breakdown ("£450 hallway, £600 living room, £500 dining, £250 kitchen") and the quote shows each room as a separate line. Customers like seeing exactly what each room costs; helps them decide whether to drop one if budget is tight.
How do I separate materials from labour on the invoice?+
Just describe it in plain English: "£320 materials and £1,800 labour". Wedge's AI splits them into separate line items so the customer can see the breakdown. Useful if customers want to supply their own paint and only pay you for labour.
Can I include before-and-after photos with the invoice?+
Yes — after Wedge sends the invoice, follow up in the same WhatsApp thread with photos. Customers like seeing the finished work alongside the bill. Good for word-of-mouth referrals too.
What about partial deposits on bigger jobs?+
Tell Wedge to split the invoice ("30% deposit, 70% on completion") and we'll generate the deposit invoice immediately, then the balance invoice when you message that the job's done.
Do I need to charge VAT on decorating work?+
If you're VAT-registered, yes — standard 20% on most domestic decorating work. Wedge calculates and shows VAT automatically. For renovations of empty homes that have been unoccupied for 2+ years, you can override to 5% per line item.
Can I send a quote, then convert it to an invoice when the job's done?+
Yes — that's the standard flow. Send the quote, customer signs, you do the work, then message Wedge to convert. Customer details, room breakdown, and pricing all carry over — no re-typing.
