Six documents, one set of lines
Every one opens with Plumber already selected, and a quote converts to an invoice without retyping.
Invoice
Emergency call-out and first hour billed, with waste removal and disposal on its own line.
OpenQuote
A price for the emergency call-out and first hour, held while the client decides.
OpenCost estimate
A number to work to before the scope is settled.
OpenReceipt
Proof the money arrived, issued the same day.
OpenWork order
The scope, signed before work starts, no prices shown.
OpenPurchase order
The parts and materials you order in.
OpenHow plumbers bill
The generator assumes three things about how the work is billed.
One figure for the main work
Emergency call-out and first hour is known work, so it goes on as a single line rather than an argument about hours. It opens at $95.00 for you to overwrite once.
$95.00opening figureCounted, not estimated
Labour bills per hour at $65.00. The count sits on the line, so a client with 2 of them sees all 2 rather than one figure to accept.
$65.00per hourMaterials priced apart from time
Parts and materials sits on its own line. When the supplier price moves, it is a rate edit rather than an argument about what your hours are worth.
What you get, free
Six controls in the generator, each aimed at a part of the week.
Four lines before you type
The last job ends and the invoicing starts, the same lines typed again from memory. Pick Plumber once and every document here opens with them in place.
The record on the document
The detail that matters later belongs on the document the client keeps, not in a notebook in the van. Add a field, type it once, and it prints.
Photos and a signature
A number on its own gets queried. The work shown, and the scope signed, ends the argument before it starts.
Paid from the sheet
A finished job should not wait on an envelope. Payment link and QR print on the document, six ways to pay behind them.
Repeat work bills itself
Regular clients expect the same figure each time. Set the line once, make it recurring, and the next one arrives without you opening anything.
A quote becomes the invoice
The client says yes and the retyping begins, twice the typing for one job. Convert it: lines, client and totals carry across.

Questions plumbers ask
What should a plumber invoice include?
Your business details, the client, and the work itemised: emergency call-out and first hour, labour, parts and materials and waste removal and disposal. Add your payment terms and the date it is due. The generator opens a plumber document with those four lines already in place.
How much should I charge for emergency call-out and first hour?
There is no single answer, and anyone quoting one is guessing. The generator opens that line at $95.00 so the document is not empty, and expects you to change it. This site holds no pricing survey.
How do I bill labour?
By the hour, with the quantity on the document. The line opens at 2 at $65.00 each, so the client sees what was counted rather than one figure to take on faith.
Should parts and materials be charged separately?
Yes, on its own line. It is a cost that moves independently of your time, and separating it means a supplier price rise is a rate edit rather than an argument about your labour.
Can I turn a plumber quote into an invoice without retyping it?
Yes. Build the quote, and when the client accepts, convert it. The lines, the client and the totals carry across.
Do I need software to send a plumber invoice?
No. The generator runs in the browser with no signup, no watermark and no trial. Fill it, export a PDF, send it from your own email. An account adds saving, clients and a dashboard, but holds nothing back from the document.
