    What is a deck builder invoice?

    An deck builder invoice is the bill you send a customer AFTER the work is done. It lists every part, labor charge, and tax, and tells the customer what they owe and how to pay.

    What every deck builder invoice should include

    • Sqft + dimensions
    • Material brand + color
    • Joist spacing + footings
    • Railing code spec
    • Permit + inspection schedule

    Deck builder invoice FAQ

    Do I charge sales tax on deck work?

    Most US states tax parts/materials but exempt labor. Use Glo Invoice's per-line tax toggle so each deck line item is taxed correctly. Check your state — a few (HI, NM, SD, WV) tax services too.

    Composite vs wood?

    Composite = lower maintenance, higher upfront. Wood = cheaper, needs re-stain. Quote both.

    Footings depth?

    Below frost line — varies by region. Print depth on the invoice.
