Run the day

Know exactly who worked what — billable time per person, per week

Gaffer timesheets capture every hour your team puts in, tagged to the right job and marked billable or not. The weekly view builds itself from the field app, so payroll and customer invoices are based on real time — not guesswork.

Replaces a paper diary, a whiteboard and a WhatsApp group. Every job has one owner, one time and one place to look. The office stops relaying messages and the engineer stops ringing in for the next address.

Where it fits

Step 04 of the job: on site

The engineer taps "On my way" and the customer gets a text with an arrival window. On site: clock in, photos, the certificate for the job — EICR, Gas Safety, whatever the trade needs — signed on the device. No signal? It syncs later.

Timesheets is one part of that step. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →

Common questions

About timesheets

Something else? support@rungaffer.com

What does timesheets replace?

For most trade businesses, a paper diary, a whiteboard and a WhatsApp group. Every job has one owner, one time and one place to look. The office stops relaying messages and the engineer stops ringing in for the next address.

Does timesheets work on a phone, and offline?

Yes. The mobile app is offline-first: records created on site are stored on the device and synced automatically, in order, when signal returns. Lofts, plant rooms and rural sites were the design brief.

Which plan is it on?
