Solution for Carpenters

Custom carpentry quotes in minutes

Invoice your carpentry and installation work.

Bespoke workshop fabrication, fitting windows, doors, staircases, kitchens or wardrobes: a carpenter mixes fabrication, supply and fitting, with long lead times between quote and delivery. That calls for a precise quote from the start, well-tracked deposits and a final invoice that brings it all together. Robi AI lets you dictate the project with its dimensions and wood species, and follows it through to the balance.

Example quote: carpenter

You say

« Quote for Mr Petit, house built in 1960: replace four wooden windows with double-glazed oak windows, remove the old ones, and a bespoke cupboard under the stairs, 30% deposit on order. »

Robi prepares

  • Double-glazed oak windows — fabrication and fitting · 4 (dimensions, thermal performance)your rate
  • Removal and disposal of existing frames · 4your rate
  • Bespoke under-stairs cupboard — fabrication and fittingyour rate
  • 30% deposit on order, balance on fittingyour rate

The windows and the cupboard may not share a VAT rate: the cupboard doesn't improve energy performance. One line each.

The rules specific to this trade

10% or 5.5% VAT: a statement replaces the old certificate

In France, work on a home completed more than two years ago can qualify for 10% VAT (art. 279-0 bis CGI), or 5.5% for energy-efficiency improvements (art. 278-0 bis A). Since 2025 the customer no longer fills in a Cerfa certificate: a statement on the signed quote or invoice replaces it, and you keep those documents with your books.

Decennial insurance certificate attached to quotes and invoices

In France, for building work subject to decennial liability insurance, article L. 243-2 of the Insurance Code requires you to attach your insurance certificate to your quotes and invoices. Keep it up to date: clients often check it first.

Questions fréquentes

The signed quote sets the deposit. Issue a deposit invoice on order, then a final invoice deducting what's been paid, with continuous numbering. Robi links the two and shows what's still due.
In a French home completed more than two years ago, windows that improve energy performance can qualify for 5.5% (art. 278-0 bis A CGI), subject to technical conditions; other joinery work generally falls under 10%.
The reduced rates cover work in a home. A sale without fitting is a sale of goods, normally at the standard rate. Keep delivered fabrication and fitting on separate lines.
