A working example

From a blockage call to a separately scoped repair

This is an illustrative workflow using the existing shared tools in Trade PA. You supply the findings and prices; Eve helps with the admin.

  1. Record the reported blockage and property access

    The first visit clears the blockage, but your inspection identifies a section needing separate work and approval. Save the customer, property and reported work in the job record.

  2. Record your findings and clearance work

    Record what you have checked before you commit to the work:

    • Reported issue and property access
    • Your inspection findings and location references
    • Initial visit scope and equipment allowance
    • Repair access, excavation and reinstatement
  3. Invoice clearance; quote further repair separately

    Invoice the agreed call-out and quote the additional repair separately. Include only the findings and prices you have verified. Review the draft, send it when ready and add the agreed visit to your diary.

  4. Keep location and findings for the next visit

    Keep the work completed and remaining recommendations in the job notes. Set a reminder to follow up the repair decision.

A few things to know.

Can Eve interpret a drain survey and diagnose the fault?

You interpret the inspection evidence and decide the repair. The app helps organise your recorded findings and prepare customer paperwork.

Is this a separate app for drainage contractors?

No. It is the same Trade PA app, with examples showing how the shared tools fit this trade. Use your own scope, prices and job details to make it fit the way you work.

What should I try first?

Create a test customer and a draft for “blocked drain with a follow-up repair”. Add your own scope and prices, check the wording, then explore the appointment and invoice tools. You can review the draft without sending it.
