Balance due**$14,688.00** [Preview]() ## What to include on a construction invoice Beyond the basics — your details, the customer, a unique number and the date — these are the lines contractors get asked about. Sample invoice lines - Phase 2 - rough framing and blocking (milestone)1 × $6800.00 - Rough electrical and plumbing (subcontracted)1 × $4200.00 - Lumber and framing materials1 × $2350.00 - Change order #2 - add pantry wall1 × $1150.00 Fictional example prices. 1. 1 ### Project and contract number Name the project and the contract or PO number. On larger jobs, the customer’s accounts payable will match against it. 2. 2 ### Billing period or milestone Say which phase or period the invoice covers. Progress billing only works when each invoice is clearly one step. 3. 3 ### Contract value and billed to date Showing the contract total and the amount billed so far lets the customer see where the job stands. 4. 4 ### Change orders on their own lines Approved changes should be separate lines with their change-order numbers, never folded into the base work. 5. 5 ### Retainage, if any If the contract holds back retainage, show the amount withheld and when it is due.

Invoice each phase or period as its own document, name the phase, and show the contract value and the amount billed to date. Put change orders on separate lines. Larger commercial jobs may require an AIA-style pay application instead. ### How do I show retainage on an invoice? Show the full amount earned for the period, then the retainage withheld and the net due now. Track the retained amount so it is invoiced when the contract releases it. ### Is this construction invoice template free? Yes. The Word, Excel and PDF files download without signing up or giving an email address, and the online generator makes PDFs for free. Replace the sample lines and prices with your own; they are fictional examples, not pricing guidance. ### Can I use this invoice in Bokeping? The downloads are standalone documents.
