Total Tradesmen

Total Tradesmen, job management software for UK trades

Total Tradesmen is a job management platform aimed at UK trade businesses, from sole traders to companies of around fifty people. It brings together job scheduling, quotes, invoices, customer data and engineer coordination in a single system, with the stated goal of replacing paper diaries, spreadsheets and scattered conversations with a single workflow.

The company traces its origins to the repair and maintenance sector: according to its own presentation, its team has more than 35 years of experience in that field and claims to support more than 25 different trades. Development is presented as driven by suggestions from the professionals who use the tool.

Features for daily work

The app lets you create jobs, quotes and invoices directly on site, without waiting to get back to the office or the van. Each job keeps quotes, notes, photos and invoices in the same record, so information doesn't get scattered across notebooks, photo albums and different messaging channels.

The system includes sending updates to the customer — for example, delay or job completion notices — without using the operative's personal number. It also covers shared workload management between the office and the team on site, so both see the same job status.

Features included in all plans

• Unlimited jobs and quotes.
• Customer quote approval.
• Branded invoices and emails.
• AI tools applied to jobs.
• iOS, Android and PWA app.
• Card payments via Stripe.
• Xero integration.

Branding extends to invoices, the dashboard, emails and text messages sent to customers. The platform also lets you buy SMS and AI credits when needed.
