What to put on a plumber invoice
- Your name or business name, and your address.
- Your client's name and address.
- A unique invoice number. Keep them in order so they are easy to track.
- The invoice date, and the date you supplied the goods or services if it is different.
- A description of what you supplied, with quantities and prices.
- The total amount due and the date it should be paid by.
- How to pay you, such as your bank details.
- If you are VAT registered: your VAT number, the tax point, the VAT rate and the VAT amount.
- Labour and parts as separate lines so the customer can see what they paid for.
- Your Gas Safe registration number if you do gas work.
- The address where the work was done, if it is different from the billing address.
This is general guidance, not tax or legal advice. GOV.UK has the full rules on invoices and VAT.
Questions
How should a plumber itemise an invoice?
Show labour (hours and rate), parts and any call-out fee on separate lines. It stops arguments and makes the total easy to follow.
Should I put my Gas Safe number on it?
If you carry out gas work, many plumbers show their Gas Safe registration number on their paperwork. It reassures customers.
Can I invoice a deposit?
Yes. Add a line for the deposit, then make a second invoice for the balance when the job is done.
Do I charge VAT as a plumber?
Only if you are VAT registered. Switch tax on and add your number if you are.
