Invoice INV-014 for £350 sent to Dave Smith. ✉️Wedge
Dave Smith paid £350 for INV-014. 💰Birmingham decorating divides between the Solihull/Sutton Coldfield high-ticket residential refurbishment market (full-house repaints frequently bundled with extension or refurb work, running £5k–£15k) and broader West Midlands commercial fit-out finishing on the HS2 and Paradise pipelines. Commercial subcontract work runs CIS-deducted with reverse-charge VAT for VAT-registered firms; residential work is direct-to-homeowner. The high proportion of older housing stock across the city means preparation work (filler, sanding, stain-blocking on Victorian and Edwardian woodwork) usually accounts for a meaningful share of any quote — separating prep from topcoat labour on the invoice keeps customers from questioning the total.

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.

If you're VAT-registered, yes — standard 20% on most domestic decorating work. Wedge calculates VAT automatically and shows it as a separate line. For renovations of empty homes that have been unoccupied for 2+ years, you can override to 5% per line item.
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.
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.
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.
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.
