What fencing contractors say about Trade2Base
“I was quoting off memory and losing jobs because my prices were all over the place. The templates with materials lists sorted that. Now every quote covers posts, gravel boards, panels and labour properly and my margins have held up even as timber prices went through the roof.”
“Getting paid used to take two weeks minimum. Now I send the invoice with the completion photos before I drive away and most customers pay on the Stripe link within the hour. Cash flow is completely different — I stopped worrying about chasing money.”
“Tracking which Facebook ad brought in which job changed everything for me. I was spending on ads and assuming they worked. Trade2Base showed me one campaign was generating nothing and another was delivering £8 jobs for every £1 spent. I redirected the budget and my diary filled up.”
Common questions from fencing contractors
Yes — you can build quote templates for any fencing type with full materials breakdowns: posts, gravel boards, close-board panels, arris rails, concrete spurs, caps and labour. Add line items in any quantity, apply VAT and include waste allowances. Large jobs with 50+ metres of fencing are straightforward to quote accurately.
Each crew member can be assigned to specific jobs in the schedule. You see all active jobs on a single calendar view and can reassign or reschedule from your phone. Crew members get job details and customer addresses through the app — no need for paper run sheets or group WhatsApp chats.
Yes — you enter material quantities in the quote and can log actual materials used on completion. Trade2Base compares quoted material costs against actual spend so you can see where jobs overran. Useful for keeping timber and concrete costs under control when supplier prices change.
Trade2Base syncs completed invoices to Xero and QuickBooks. VAT totals, materials costs and labour are broken out on each invoice so your accountant or bookkeeper can reconcile everything cleanly at month end without you manually entering data.
