What to put on a plumber invoice
Common lines on a plumber's invoice include:
- Labour — hours × rate
- Fixtures and fittings supplied (taps, pipes, hot water unit)
- Call-out fee
- After-hours / emergency rate
- Excavation or trenching
- Travel and disposal
Plus the essentials every Australian invoice needs: your business name and ABN, the client's details, a unique invoice number and dates, the total (with 10% GST if you're registered), and your payment details. See how to write an invoice and the tax invoice requirements.
A tip for plumbers
Emergency and after-hours work usually carries a higher rate — put it on its own line so the client sees exactly what they're paying for. Keep a copy of every invoice for five years, as the ATO requires.
GST and your ABN
You must register for GST once your turnover hits $75,000 a year — then you charge 10% GST and issue a Tax Invoice. Under that, GST is optional and you issue a plain invoice. Either way, always quote your ABN. More: the $75,000 GST threshold and do I need an ABN to invoice.
