Electrician Quote & Invoice Software South Africa
Electricians in South Africa face unique quoting challenges: COC certificates, DB board upgrades, prepaid meter installations, and rewiring jobs on older properties where surprises hide behind every wall. Clients expect itemised quotes that separate inspection fees, labour, materials, and compliance costs — and they need proper tax invoices for insurance claims and property transfers. The Trade Kit helps electrical contractors send professional, VAT-compliant documents that build trust with homeowners, landlords, and property managers. Quote from site on your phone, add line items for cable runs, breakers, earth leakage units, and labour hours, then email the PDF before you leave the property. When the job is done, convert the quote to an invoice and reference the COC number for a clear paper trail. The Trade Kit applies 15% South African VAT automatically, displays your VAT registration number, and keeps sequential invoice numbering for SARS compliance. Stop losing evenings to paperwork and get back to the work that pays.
