Tradesman software for sole traders who'd rather be on the tools

Quotes that look professional

Clean PDF quotes with your business details, line items and totals — the sort customers actually say yes to.

Invoices and payment chasing

One-click invoice from a completed quote, with a status board so you always know who still owes you.

Customer & supplier book

Every job is tied to a contact, so the next time the same customer calls you've got their address, history and notes to hand.

Receipts and expenses

Snap a receipt, tag the job, done. Materials and fuel feed into your tax-year totals automatically.

What does tradesman software actually do?

It replaces the notebook, the spreadsheet and the half-finished invoices on your phone. My Job Goblin gives you quotes, invoices, customer records and expenses in one place, designed for how a self-employed tradesperson really works.

Which trades is it for?

Sole-trader builders, plumbers, electricians, carpenters, plasterers, painters, roofers, gardeners and general handymen working in the UK. If you quote jobs and invoice customers, it fits.

Can I use it from my van?

Yes — it's mobile-first. You can build a quote on a phone while standing in the customer's kitchen and email them a clean PDF before you leave the driveway.

Does it help with VAT or Self Assessment?

Expenses are tracked against the HMRC SA103F boxes used on Self Assessment, with VAT recorded per line. You still need an accountant to file, but the numbers are ready when they ask.

How much does it cost?

Quoting is free to try. Paid plans unlock invoicing volume, customer management and the HMRC year-end tools.
