A bricklayer laying facing bricks on a garden wall

Bricklaying

Price work with the labour still in it.

Garden walls, extensions and facework. Quote the labour properly, pay the gang through CIS, and invoice the stage you have laid.

  • Labour in the price
  • CIS
  • Stage invoices

Bricklaying

Everything a bricklayer needs, in one login

Brickwork is won on a rate and lost on the labour you did not put in the number. TruTrade puts labour, materials and margin in the quote, then keeps wages and invoices on that job.

Bricklaying

One login. The whole job.

01

Put the labour in the quote

Your rate, the gang, the material and the margin. The sell price moves while you still have a chance to change it.

  • Sliders for margin, overhead and VAT.
  • A pack the builder or the client can accept.
  • Revisions when the measure changes.

The rate includes the people.

Sales invoices in TruTrade, showing paid, outstanding and overdue amounts

02

CIS when you pull a gang in

Timesheets, CIS and PAYE live in the same login as the quote. The wage ledger is not a separate Saturday job.

  • Approve timesheets on the week.
  • CIS and PAYE deductions by month and year.
  • Wages show on the job.

Subcontract labour stays visible.

03

Invoice the stage you have built

Footings, to dpc, to plate. The payment schedule is in the quote, and the invoice comes off it.

  • Stage amounts agreed up front.
  • See what the main contractor still owes.
  • PDF before it goes out.

You bill the wall you have laid.

04

Materials and margin on one screen

Bricks, blocks and sand against the job. Projected profit sits next to the budget so a hungry rate shows up early.

  • Lists off the estimate.
  • Spend on the job ledger.
  • Profit while the job is open.

You can turn the next rate down.

From the trade

Builders running the same app

“The quote pack alone wins me work. Clients think I’ve got a QS on the payroll — and the margin sliders mean the number that goes out is the number I meant.”
Matthew RenshawBuilder, Warwickshire
“I used to price on the hop and hope for the best. Now I set my margin before the client’s even called back, and I know where every job stands on a Sunday night instead of finding out at the end.”
DommoSelf-employed builder
“Invoices, CIS and the client portal in one place. My admin night has basically disappeared, and clients stopped ringing me for updates because they can see it all.”
