The details you'll wish you wrote down
Nothing is compulsory. Fill in what you know now, and top it up next time a tradie hands you an invoice.
- Make, model and where it is in the house
- Installed date and who installed it
- Last service and the next one due
- Warranty expiry, so you claim before it lapses
- The tradie's name and phone number
- Notes, quotes and what the job cost
