📝
You finish a panel upgrade, scribble an invoice on a carbon-copy pad, and hand it to the homeowner. They lose it. You lose your copy. Six weeks later, you're still chasing $1,800 with no paper trail.
🧮
Customers want to see the breakdown — $340 in wire and breakers, $120 in permits, $960 in labor. When you lump it into one number, they question the total. Itemizing by hand takes 15 minutes you don't have between jobs.
⏱️
Troubleshooting calls can run 45 minutes or 4 hours. You're tracking time on the back of a receipt and rounding up. The customer thinks you overcharged. You think you undercharged. Nobody has documentation.
💰
"The check is in the mail" is the electrician's least favorite sentence. Residential customers forget. Commercial clients route invoices through AP departments that take 30–60 days. Meanwhile, you're buying materials for the next job out of pocket.
📋
You quote a rewire at $4,200. The homeowner adds six recessed lights and two outdoor outlets. You're recalculating on the spot and the final bill doesn't match the original estimate, which leads to disputes.
📊
Between service calls, panel upgrades, and new construction draws, you have $15,000 outstanding across 12 customers. You know this vaguely — but you can't produce a list without 30 minutes in a spreadsheet.
The fix
📱
Finish the job, open WaffleInvoice on your phone, add line items for parts and labor, and send. The customer gets a professional invoice with a payment link before you've loaded the van. No computer required.
🧮
Add individual line items for wire, breakers, outlets, panels, permit fees, and hourly labor. Customers see exactly what they're paying for — fewer disputes, faster payment.
⏱️
Start a timer when you arrive, stop when you leave. The hours go straight onto the invoice at your hourly rate. No more guessing, rounding, or arguing about how long the job took.
💳
Share a payment link by text or email. Homeowners tap to pay by credit card. Commercial clients process ACH bank transfers through their AP workflow. No more waiting for checks.
📋
Quote the job with a detailed estimate. When the customer adds work, update the estimate. Convert to a final invoice with one click — every line item carries over. The customer can see what changed.
📊
See all invoices — paid, unpaid, overdue — across every customer and job. Know exactly how much revenue is out there and which customers need a follow-up. No spreadsheet required.
Your workflow
Walk the site, assess the work, and send a detailed estimate right from your phone. Separate line items for materials, labor, and permits. The customer reviews and approves online.
As the scope changes — additional circuits, upgraded panels, extra outlets — update the estimate or add line items. Track time if it's a T&M job. Everything stays documented.
Convert the estimate to an invoice or create one fresh. Add final materials and actual labor hours. Send it to the customer before you leave — by email, text, or a shareable link.
Customers pay online by card or ACH. You see the payment hit your dashboard in real time. If they don't pay, automatic reminders follow up so you don't have to.
Works for every type of electrical job
Outlet replacements, breaker trips, ceiling fan installs, troubleshooting. Invoice the homeowner on the spot with a line item for the service call fee, parts used, and labor. Text them the payment link and get paid before you leave.
These are $2,000–$8,000 jobs with significant material costs. Itemize the panel, breakers, wire runs, permits, and labor hours separately. Send a deposit invoice upfront, then the balance on completion. The customer sees exactly what they paid for.
Invoice builders and GCs with professional, itemized bills they can pass to their AP departments. Separate line items for rough-in labor, trim-out, fixtures, and materials. Progress billing for large jobs keeps your cash flow healthy.
Commercial clients need clean documentation for their records. Invoice for electrical work on tenant build-outs, office upgrades, and retail fit-outs with detailed line items that match the scope of work.
A growing category with consistent pricing. Invoice for the charger unit, dedicated circuit run, panel capacity assessment, permit, and installation labor. Provide a clear estimate upfront so the homeowner knows the total cost before scheduling.
Property managers and commercial buildings on monthly or quarterly electrical maintenance. Set up recurring invoices on the Pro plan so the same inspection/maintenance bill goes out automatically without manual work.
Upgrade when you need automatic payment reminders, online card and ACH collection, recurring invoices for maintenance contracts, and time tracking for hourly labor.
