Five small jobs in one day
Tuesday is your busy day — five jobs across south London: shelf install (£80), washing-machine plumbed in (£120), three door handles replaced (£60), garden gate rehung (£75), and a fence panel replaced (£140). Between each job you message Wedge with one line: "Invoice Linda Brown £80 for shelf install at 14 Acacia Road," "Invoice Mark Davies £120 for washing-machine plumb-in at 7 Acacia Road," and so on. Each invoice generates and sends in 60 seconds. By Tuesday evening, three of the five customers have paid via Stripe (£275 in your bank). Wedge keeps £2.75. No subscription, no monthly fee — even on a slow week with two jobs, you only pay 1% on those two.

Frequently asked questions
Can Wedge handle lots of small invoices in one day?+
Yes — that's exactly what most handymen need. Send a quick WhatsApp message per job: "Invoice Linda Brown £80 for shelf install at 14 Acacia Road." Each invoice generates and sends in 60 seconds. No batching, no end-of-day spreadsheet entry — the records build up automatically in your dashboard as you work.
How do I price mixed call-out plus hourly work?+
Just describe it in the message: "Invoice Sarah Patel £95 — £35 call-out, £60 for 1.5 hours at £40/hr — for fixing the back door at 22 Park Crescent." Wedge breaks it into clear line items on the PDF so the customer sees exactly what they're paying for. Reduces dispute on the smaller-ticket work where margin is tight.
What if I do regular retainer work for letting agents?+
Set up the letting agent as a recurring customer — Wedge remembers their details and bank-to bill-to setup. Invoice each job as you do it; at the end of the month you can send a consolidated statement showing every job and total. Letting agents prefer the per-job invoices for their property accounts, but the monthly statement helps reconciliation.
Do I need a registration or certification number on invoices?+
No formal certification is required for general handyman work in the UK. That said, customers and landlords are more comfortable when they see evidence of competence — add your public liability insurance details, any trade memberships (e.g. Federation of Master Builders), or specific qualifications (NVQ Level 2 carpentry, basic electrical Part P) to your invoice footer. Builds trust on cold customer leads.
How do I invoice for emergency call-outs at weekends?+
Most handymen charge a higher rate for emergency or out-of-hours work — flag it clearly in your message and on the invoice: "£60 emergency call-out (weekend), £80 labour at £40/hr (2 hours)." Wedge shows the higher rate distinctly so the customer can't dispute the elevated charge later. Same-day invoicing also matters here: send before you leave the property, while the urgency justifies the rate.
Can I invoice from my phone without a laptop?+
Yes — Wedge is designed for it. You never need to open a laptop or a dashboard to send invoices. WhatsApp is the entire interface. The browser dashboard at /dashboard exists for end-of-quarter record-keeping and tax submission, but you can run a full handyman business from WhatsApp on your phone alone.
