Price the extension. Bill the client in stages. Pay your subbies with CIS sorted automatically. Track every merchant receipt from Travis Perkins, Jewson and MKM against the job. All free, all on your phone.
Building is cashflow. A £60k kitchen extension has to be billed in the right stages or you’re funding a client’s kitchen out of your pocket for six weeks. Yoley is built around payment schedules — split a quote into a deposit, a first-fix stage, a second-fix stage and a final — and raise the invoice for each milestone without re-typing anything.
If you’re a main contractor hiring subcontractors, CIS deductions are calculated on the invoice automatically. 20% for verified, 30% for unverified, 0% for gross-status — free, on the Free plan. Compare that to QuickBooks where you need the £32/month Plus tier just to unlock CIS.
Whether you do extensions, loft conversions, new builds, groundworks, brickwork, conservatories or landlord maintenance, Yoley is the fastest way to keep the paperwork off the kitchen table and the cash moving.
Split a £60k extension into 5% deposit, 40% first-fix, 40% second-fix, 15% completion. Yoley raises each stage invoice automatically and chases them for you.
Add your subcontractors with their UTR numbers and CIS status. Every invoice raised against them calculates the deduction. No paid tier, no separate module.
Snap every Travis Perkins, Jewson, MKM and Selco receipt and tag it against the job it’s for. At the end of the job your material cost is already totalled.
Every job, quote, invoice, deposit and snag for a given customer in one timeline. Easy when the builder-client relationship runs for months.
Pro users connect their business bank account. See what’s cleared, what’s pending, and which invoice a transfer matches against — without logging into banking apps.
You measure up a single-storey rear extension. Back at home you build the quote with 24 line items, then split it into a 5% deposit, 40% first-fix, 40% second-fix, 15% completion using Yoley’s payment schedule. Send. Client accepts the same day.
Tap the quote, tap Raise next stage invoice. 40% first-fix invoice goes straight to the client with a payment link. Paid by card that afternoon — 1.49%, in your bank Monday.
Your plasterer sends you a £2,400 invoice. You raise a CIS invoice back to him from the app. Yoley calculates the 20% deduction on labour, leaves materials untouched. He signs, you pay the net — and the deduction is logged for your monthly CIS return.
Job finished, client walks through with a snag list. You raise the final 15% invoice from your phone on site. She pays by Tap to Pay straight onto your iPhone. Done.
Yoley replaces the spreadsheet, the WhatsApp thread and the £32/month QuickBooks Plus tier.
