Every solar PV installer faces these challenges. ProWorks solves them all.
Solar is a considered purchase - your customer is comparing three quotes at the kitchen table. Send a professional branded PDF through the customer portal, see when they open it, and let them accept online while they're still deciding.
Scaffold up, panels on, electrician in for the connection - one no-show and the whole day slips. See the week in one diary, assign your own team and subbies, and work with them without sharing sensitive information.
MCS certificates, DNO applications, commissioning paperwork and handover packs end up buried in inboxes. Store it all against the job and customer, so it's there when the customer or their solicitor asks for it.
Panels, inverters, batteries and mounting kit are most of the job's cost, and prices move. Record what each install actually uses, apply your markup and watch the live cost against the quote before the margin disappears.
From a domestic rooftop array to a small commercial system with battery storage, manage every part of your solar work
Price the install days from your saved rates and add panels, inverter and mounting kit with your markup applied. Send the branded PDF and see when it has been opened, so you know whether to follow up.
See your week in a visual diary and assign each job to the right people. Line up the scaffolder, your installers and the electrician for install day without double-booking anyone.
Inverters and batteries get ordered weeks ahead of the install. Flag the job as materials ordered, then as ready to collect, and filter the jobs list on it before you commit to a date with the customer.
An install has to sit between the scaffold going up and coming down, and neither of those is your company. Log the hours you actually spend on the roof so you can tell a slow install from a slow week.
A system is not billable until it is commissioned and the handover pack is done. Leave the job open until then, then raise the invoice with labour, kit and markup already worked out.
Upload photos of the roof survey, the array and the inverter install to each job. Store MCS certificates, DNO paperwork and commissioning documents against the job and customer.
Built for the way UK solar PV installers actually price, schedule and invoice their work
A full install is quoted, a battery added two years later is a job in its own right, and subcontracting for a bigger firm is day rate. Set the type per job and each one is billed the way it was agreed.
Taking on a commercial roof or an install with several stages? Group the scaffold, panel fit and electrical connection as jobs under one project, and see the hours and the spend across the whole system, not just each visit.
Set up service schedules at whatever interval suits - annual inverter checks, panel cleaning, battery health visits. ProWorks tracks what's due, sends the customer a service-due email, and records each visit with certificates attached.

"I switched to ProWorks after trying Tradify and immediately found it far more user-friendly for me and my growing team. Scheduling work for employees and subcontractors is now much simpler, and the ability to sync with subbies without sharing sensitive information works brilliantly. I'd fully recommend ProWorks to any trade business."Spencer Lane

Straight answers for UK solar PV installers comparing job management software.
Build it on your phone before you leave. The labour comes off a time estimate against your saved rate, the panels, inverter and battery go in as materials with your markup, and the array goes in the notes beside the figure. It reaches the customer through the portal, you see when they open it, and you get an email the moment they accept, while the competition is still writing theirs up.
Record what the install used against the job with the supplier, cost and your markup, and ProWorks shows the live cost against the quoted price so you see the margin before the invoice goes out. With AI enabled, upload the wholesaler's invoice and ProWorks reads the materials off it and fills them in.
Yes. Book each visit in the diary and drag it to another day or another person if plans change. Invite the scaffolder or electrician as a subcontractor company, assign them the job, and their hours and costs land on your invoice without them seeing your customer list. Whoever is assigned sees the date on their diary as soon as you set it.
Upload them against the job and they stay linked to the customer and property, so when the customer or their solicitor asks two years later the pack is where you filed it.
Yes. Register the array or inverter as an asset against the property, put a schedule on it with the interval in months, and ProWorks shows when the next visit is due. You send the reminder and ProWorks emails the customer, who accepts it in the portal, and you get an email to book it in. Each visit is recorded with certificates attached.
