Bodywork repair ranges from minor SMART repairs and scratch removal to full panel respray and accident damage. Every job is different — and every job needs a professional invoice that reflects the work done and protects you if payment is disputed.
Edinburgh's cobblestone streets cause more alloy wheel kerb damage per mile than almost any road surface in Scotland — and the tourist hire car market keeps repair shops busy year-round.
Edinburgh is unusual among UK repair markets: cobblestone streets in the Old Town and Grassmarket create disproportionate alloy wheel kerb and scuff damage, particularly among tourist drivers unfamiliar with the road camber. The city receives 4.5 million overnight visitors annually, creating a steady hire car and tour operator B2B repair market alongside retail. Edinburgh's professional and financial services customer base expect clean, branded documentation.
Record the damage, create a detailed estimate with parts, labour, and materials. Send it to the customer or insurer for approval.
When the job is complete, convert the estimate to a final invoice. Add any changes to scope, extra parts, or additional labour.
Send the final PDF by email or WhatsApp. Mark paid when settlement arrives. Your records stay accurate automatically.
Add panel-by-panel breakdowns, paint codes, materials used, and labour hours — exactly what insurance companies and trade customers require.
InvoiceFlow invoices include reference number fields, authorisation notes, and parts breakdowns — the standard format for insurance-referred work.
