Questions, answered.

Can I attach a drawing to a quote?
No. A drawing, photo or other file cannot be attached to a quote. A line’s Description is typed, so it can give the sizes and the timber.
Can a new-build plot be added before it has an Eircode?
Yes. A site needs only a first line and a town, and What this site is called can hold the plot number. The Eircode can be added to the site once the plot has one.
Can first fix and second fix sit on one job, weeks apart?
Yes. A job holds as many visits as the work needs, and Book a visit on the job adds the next one. Add hours asks Which visit the hours were worked on.
