Material has to be bought before you're paid
Take a deposit when the job is booked, so the timber isn't coming out of your pocket while the job waits.
Install, sand, refinish. Priced by area, done over days, and often needing a deposit before the timber is ordered. QuixChex handles all three parts of that on one job record.
Why flooring is different
Take a deposit when the job is booked, so the timber isn't coming out of your pocket while the job waits.
Sanding and refinishing an existing floor bills differently from laying a new one, and both can sit on the same customer.
Quote off floor area at your own rate, and the estimate carries through to the invoice without being rebuilt.
Day one
Tell QuixChex you run a flooring business and it sets the account up around how the work actually happens — before you've typed anything.
Quote at your own rate per square foot; the estimate becomes the job and then the invoice with the same numbers throughout.
Take money before the material order and bill the rest on completion, both on the same job.
Different work at different prices on the same customer, rather than three separate systems or one vague line item.
Multi-day work clocks in against the job each day, so labour cost is real rather than estimated after the fact.
The site carries the history — what was laid, when it was refinished, what it cost — for when they call back in five years.
The condition you found and the floor you left, attached to the job.
How a job runs
Customer wants 900 square feet refinished. You quote off area, take a deposit, and book it. Your installer clocks in at the site over three days. The balance bills on completion, with the hours already against the job.
QuixChex reads card activity straight off Winston POS, settles through iStream and Global Payments, and is backed by Port City Processing LLC. Whatever you already run on the counter and in the back office keeps running — QuixChex fits around it.
