Reg sits in WhatsApp alongside your customers and suppliers. Just tell him what you need. He's on standby 24/7, and never complains.
|
Send a voice note or text
Tell Reg about a job in your own words, from the van or on site. Talk like you would to anyone else.
Reg sorts the quote
He prices it from your own rates, puts your branding on it and sends it over. He schedules the job into your calendar once they accept.
That's the Harrison job paid. £840 in, logged to Xero.
He chases it home
The invoice goes out with a payment link, and Reg chases anyone who's late. Everything gets logged to Xero or QuickBooks.
Less admin.More scaffolding.
You quote the erect, then the hire weeks tick by. Gruntwork prices it from your phone and keeps the clock running, so nothing stands up for free.
Price it from site.
Voice note the job: front and side, two storey, four weeks hire. Reg quotes the erect, hire and dismantle separately.
Hire weeks billed on time.
Gruntwork tracks the hire end date, and Reg prompts you before it passes, so extensions go out as invoices, not freebies.

What MTD means for scaffolders →Scaffolding questions
Does Gruntwork track hire weeks and bill extensions?
Yes. Gruntwork tracks the hire end date from the quote, and Reg prompts you when the customer is approaching it, so you can send an extension invoice instead of giving away free weeks.
Can I quote a chimney scaffold from a voice note?
Yes. Tell Reg "chimney scaffold, mid-terrace, two-week hire" and he writes the quote using your erect, hire and dismantle rates.
Does Gruntwork handle MTD for scaffolding sole traders?
Yes. Every job and invoice flows into Xero or QuickBooks as you work, so your MTD quarterly submission stays current.
Can I send a separate invoice for the dismantle?
Yes. Ask Reg to split the job into erect, hire and dismantle invoices. Useful for longer commercial jobs.
Does it work for multi-site businesses?
Yes. You can run several jobs at once. Gruntwork keeps each one separate, and each has its own thread in the same WhatsApp.
