For builders & trades

Get the scope agreed before the work moves forward.

Upload a finished quotation, scope, variation or work agreement and add the customer who needs to sign. We email it for you. They sign online and we return the completed PDF—quickly, easily and free.

Clear final document

Send the exact quotation, scope or variation that you want the customer to approve.

No print-sign-scan delay

The customer reads and signs through a private link from the device they already use.

Completion evidence

The returned PDF contains the signature, confirmed customer name, date and signing certificate.

Everyday uses

Customer paperwork that may need several signatures

Builders and trades frequently need a clear customer decision before reserving labour, ordering materials or changing the agreed work. A private online signing request can be easier than asking the customer to print, scan and return an attachment.

Pen Free Signatures handles the request and signature, not the wording. Finish the document and check its terms before uploading it.

  • Quotations and proposals
  • Scopes and specifications
  • Customer work agreements
  • Variations and change orders
  • Stage or completion acceptance
  • Straightforward subcontractor confirmations

Common questions

Useful details before you begin.

Can a builder send a quotation for signature for free?

Yes. During the early release, you can send a finished PDF to up to four signers without entering payment-card details.

Does my customer need to install anything?

No. They review and sign through a private link in a modern phone, tablet or computer browser.

Can I send a variation for customer approval?

The service can collect the required signatures on your finished variation PDF when simple electronic signatures are appropriate. It does not draft or assess the variation.

Can both contractor and customer sign?

Yes. Add the customer and any other parties, then add yourself as the final issuer signer if the contractor must countersign after everyone else.
