Cable, consumer units, test gear and van costs recorded before you leave the wholesaler’s car park.
An electrician’s week is full of small purchases that matter at tax time: a drum of twin-and-earth here, a pack of MCBs there, fuel between jobs, the odd replacement tool. SubReady captures each one from a WhatsApp message, so nothing ends up crumpled behind the van seats.
Cable, accessories, consumer units, fittings — snap the receipt at the counter and it’s filed as materials.
Multifunction testers, drill replacements, hand tools — photographed once, recorded properly.
“£60 diesel” typed at the pump is a record. Parking, tolls and van costs work the same way.
Competent-person scheme fees, insurance, calibration and training — all captured.
Record payments as they land and create invoices from a message when the job’s signed off.
Upload your bank statement PDF monthly and SubReady reads the transactions. It never connects to your bank.
Domestic work is usually outside the Construction Industry Scheme, but if you subcontract to a builder or main contractor, CIS deductions may come off your pay. SubReady reads your deduction statements — gross, deducted, net — and keeps a running year-end record. If CIS doesn’t apply to you, it stays out of sight. How CIS tracking works →
