PlasterFlow runs your enquiries, site visits, quotes, materials, invoices and money — made by a plasterer with 25 years on the tools, for plasterers and renderers. Not another everything-app built in an office.
You enter the measurements once, on the visit. Everything after that is filled in for you — the scope, the price, the materials, the invoice.
Name, address, what they want. Paste a text or an email and it reads the details out for you.
Room by room, or elevation by elevation. Answer as you walk round.
Scope of works, materials and total, ready to send. They tap Accept.
In your calendar, with a weather verdict and your costs going on as you spend.
Totals off the quote, your terms on the bottom, filed under the customer.
Every screen assumes you're a plasterer or renderer. Pick the system, measure the walls, and the scope of works, materials list and price write themselves.
The visit is one question at a time — room by room for plastering (skim, board, dot & dab, bond, new stud partitions and MF ceilings), elevation by elevation for rendering with 9 brands and 80 systems. Answer as you walk round.
It writes a professional scope of works and counts every board and bag, so your quote is ready before you're back in the van.
How the site visit works → Square metres off a photo →
Finish the visit and tap Save & quote — it's priced and written for you. Send by WhatsApp, text or email; the customer taps Accept on their phone.
Job grown once you're on site? Extra works raises a second price on top of the accepted quote — the agreed figure stays exactly as it is.
Quotes & invoices →Load the prices you actually pay. Pick by brand, then type, then product — not one endless list — nudge the quantities, and the order list comes out grouped ready to send to your supplier.
Materials & prices →A plain yes or no from the forecast — temperature, frost, humidity, rain — with a curing window for what you put on this morning and live rain radar so you can see it coming.
The weather verdict →Every job shows profit so far — quote minus materials, days on site and costs. No spreadsheet on a Sunday night.
Jobs & money →The render preview puts a new colour on a photo of their actual house — the quietest closing tool you'll ever use.
The visit asks when you're starting and how long you're on it. The calendar greys out days you're already booked, works out the finish date in working days, and drops the job into your phone's calendar with the address and notes.
Tap the edges of a door in the photo and the app scales the whole wall — square metres without a ladder.
Jobs laid out by the day they're booked — what you're on now, what's pencilled in, what's coming. Tap any job to open it out.
One reminders screen, grouped by day — chase the quote, order the scaffold, ring them back. The things that cost you money when you forget them.
Six document styles plus your own accent colour — your logo on the quote and the invoice, your look, every time. Pick once, preview on a real invoice, done.
The well-known job apps charge sole traders like vans full of staff. PlasterFlow is priced for one person and their business.
“I priced jobs on the back of receipts for twenty years. Every app I tried was built for someone else's trade — so I built the one I actually needed.”
PlasterFlow is built by a working plasterer and renderer with over 25 years on the tools, running his own firm in Sheffield. It started as the app that ran that business: every feature in it exists because a real job needed it that week — the weather verdict because of a wasted morning, the coverage rates because of a short order, extra works because a job grew on site.
It still works that way. Beta users' problems get fixed in days, not roadmaps.
Use it on real jobs — quote, measure, order and invoice — and see what it saves you before you pay a penny. No card up front. After that it's £9.99 a month, and you can cancel any time.
Free while it's in beta. At launch it's £9.99 a month, or £99 a year (two months free). No setup fees, no per-quote charges, cancel any time.
iPhone and Mac apps, plus a web version that works on anything with a browser — Android phones and tablets included. Everything stays in sync between them, so a to-do added on the Mac shows on your phone.
Yes. Plastering has its own full flow: room-by-room visits, skim/board/dot-and-dab/bond methods, specialist boards, stud partitions and MF ceilings, coverage rates in bags-per-square-metre — the lot. Rendering is there when you want it.
Ten minutes, most of it typing your own details in once. Put your business name, logo, phone, email and bank details into Business Details, check the material prices against your own merchant, then do a visit — the quote comes out of it already written and priced.
The app also starts with three example jobs (plastering, rendering and EWI) so you can see a finished one before you do your own. Remove them with one tap.
No, and you shouldn't for long. It ships with sensible generic trade prices so nothing is blank on day one, but the point of the app is that it quotes on your numbers — so go into Mats → Prices and put in what your merchant actually charges you. It never overwrites a price you have set.
Yours. Your jobs, prices and customers export to a file whenever you like, and your account is private to you — nobody else using PlasterFlow can see it. We don't sell data and never will. See the privacy policy.
Yes — the app keeps working and syncs up when you're back in coverage. Customer accept/decline links need the customer to be online, which they nearly always are.
Yes — phone, Mac and web on the same account, all in sync. Photos, jobs, prices and to-dos all cross over.
Both. You set whether you're VAT registered and your rate; quotes and invoices then show the VAT lines or leave them off entirely. Limited company details (registered name, company number and registered office) are optional fields — sole traders leave them blank and nothing prints.
