What this sheet is for

Capture a job while you are still standing in it: what was asked for, what was done, what went into it and how long it took.

Who it is for

Electricians, plumbers, heating engineers, joiners, mobile mechanics, cleaners and any small firm sending someone to an address.

How to use it

  1. Fill in the customer and site block before the work starts.
  2. Write the work requested in the customer's words, then the work carried out in yours — keeping them apart is the point of two boxes.
  3. List parts with part numbers while they are still in your hand.
  4. Record arrival and departure times, and whether a return visit is needed.
  5. Sign it, leave a copy, and keep one for the file.

What is on the sheet

2 pages, in this order:

Page 1

Printed under the title: The trade job sheet: who the customer is, what they asked for, what was actually done, what went into it and how long it took — written on site while it is all still fresh.

A record, not a contract. A job sheet is a record of work carried out. It is not a contract, an estimate or an invoice, and a signature on it does not settle terms — keep whatever written agreement you actually rely on alongside it.

Questions

Is a signed job sheet a contract?

No. It is a record that the work described was carried out. It does not set terms, agree a price or transfer any liability, and it does not replace the written agreement, estimate or invoice you rely on — keep those with it.

Why separate 'work requested' from 'work carried out'?

Because the difference between the two is what most disputes are about. Two boxes make the gap visible on the day, when it can still be discussed.
