Work completion certificate: the client signs off the job

A job is not finished until the client agrees it is. This form asks for the client's name, the site address, a description of the work carried out, the completion date, whether the client is satisfied, any remaining points and a signature.

Who it is for

When to use it

Complete it on site at the end of the job, with the client, or send it afterwards. The record of remaining points protects both sides, because it makes clear what is still to be done. Many tradespeople keep it with the final invoice.

Questions people ask

Does signing waive the client's rights?
Not necessarily. Consumer and building laws vary and may give clients rights after a sign-off. The form records what was said, nothing more.
What if the client is not satisfied?
They answer no and list the remaining points. You then see what must be fixed before the work counts as complete.
Can I link it to the invoice?
Yes, in your own way: send the invoice produced with the invoice template after the certificate is signed.
