General Contractor invoice FAQ
What should a contractor invoice include?
Your company and license number, the client and project address, the phase or milestone billed, itemized labor/materials/subs, any prior payments, tax, total, and terms. Reference the contract or change order number for larger jobs.
How does progress billing work on a contractor invoice?
Bill by phase or percent complete rather than all at once. Create one invoice per milestone (e.g. "Phase 1 — demo & rough-in") and note the contract total and amount billed to date.
How do I show a subcontractor cost on my invoice?
Add it as its own line (e.g. "Subcontractor — electrical"). Whether you mark it up is up to your contract; showing it as a line keeps the total transparent.
