From a five-minute fault-find to a full rewire, PaidDesk lets you quote, invoice and get paid between jobs — without doing the books at the kitchen table every night.
PaidDesk is accounting software for UK electricians and electrical contractors. It handles quotes for larger jobs like rewires and consumer-unit changes, quick on-the-spot invoices for callouts and repairs, on-site card payments through your own Stripe or SumUp account, and automatic chasing of late payments. A built-in AI assistant lets you run the admin from the van. It is a one-time £595 licence with no monthly subscription.
An electrician's day swings between two extremes. One minute it is a quick callout — a tripping circuit, a dead socket, a light fitting — that needs invoicing and paying on the spot. The next it is a planned job like a rewire, a consumer-unit upgrade or a new-build first fix, which needs a proper quote, a deposit for materials, and staged billing over days or weeks.
Doing both from a paper book or a spreadsheet is where invoices get lost and payments slip. PaidDesk handles the small and the large in the same place.
Sole-trader sparks, small electrical firms, and contractors doing domestic, commercial or landlord work — including those juggling agency callouts alongside their own customers. One £595 licence covers unlimited jobs, invoices and customers, with no monthly subscription.
