Contractor Invoices
Job-Specific Invoicing
Contractor invoices need more than a total. Property owners and GCs look for the job site, labor and materials, deposits already paid, balance due, and any lien-waiver language tied to the work.
Create Your Contractor InvoiceWhat contractor invoices need
Hourly + Flat-Fee Billing
Mix hourly rates and fixed-price items on the same invoice. Perfect for jobs with both labor and material components.
Deposit & Progress Tracking
Invoice for deposits upfront, then issue progress invoices that show what's been paid and what's due. Avoid payment delays.
Materials & Labor Breakdown
Line items for materials separate from labor charges. Some property owners and GCs need this breakdown for their accounting.
Change Orders as Separate Invoices
Reference the original job in the notes field and issue change orders on their own invoice. Clean paper trail if scope is disputed later.
Lien Waiver Language Support
Paste conditional or unconditional lien waiver text into the terms section. Issueable preserves formatting so the language reads cleanly on the PDF.

Contractor Invoicing FAQ
Why Contractor Invoices Matter
Property owners and general contractors are used to specific invoice details. They expect to see materials separated from labor, deposit tracking, and clear job-site information. A generic invoice can trigger payment delays or turn a straightforward payment request into a back-and-forth.
Issueable invoices include fields contractors actually use: multiple line items for labor and materials, job descriptions tied to specific addresses, and deposit balance calculations. The goal is simple: make the invoice easy for the owner, GC, or AP team to match against the work.
