Use the template as a starting layout, then replace its example information with the actual agreed work. The details below help you decide what to enter and what to check before sending.
Specify the property, rooms or areas covered and whether the visit is routine, deep cleaning or an end-of-tenancy service. Record extras such as oven cleaning or carpet treatment separately where they were not included in the package.
Include the property address, visit dates, booking number and service type. Check the legal billing name and delivery contact against the accepted work. Keep the agreed checklist, completed visits and approval for additional tasks available to resolve questions. An invoice records the charge; it does not replace the underlying approval or supporting documents.
Two completed routine visits and one agreed extra are billed. Replace visit counts with actual completed work and handle cancellations according to the booking agreement.
| Description | Quantity | Rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Routine cleaning visits | 2 | 95.00 | 190.00 |
| Approved oven clean | 1 | 45.00 | 45.00 |
| Example subtotal | 235.00 | ||
Billing the tenant instead of the agency or landlord named on the booking can delay payment. Check the responsible payer and property reference, especially when one agent manages several sites.
For recurring work, reconcile completed visits before copying a previous invoice. If a client raises a quality concern, record the resolution and any agreed adjustment rather than silently changing an issued invoice.
The free browser tool prepares the document. Saving customers, sending tracked invoices and managing reminders require an account and are subject to plan limits. Payment status needs accurate payment records; an invoice view alone does not confirm payment.
