Common Stucco & Plastering Invoicing Mistakes

These slips slow payment and spark disputes, but simple fixes keep cash moving.

Mistake

How to fix it

Bundling labor and materials in one blob hides tax and rate details and confuses buyers.

Separate labor, materials, equipment, and fees on their own lines with clear units. Show how you calculated totals so the math is easy to check.

Leaving out the jobsite address and client contact delays approvals and payment.

List the full billing contact and the exact service location. Match the names to the estimate and any purchase order.

Record the deposit when received and display the running balance on every invoice. Apply the deposit to the final bill and show the math.

Add required identifiers every time and verify formats before sending. If rules vary, check local rules.

Vague scope lines that omit system, coats, texture, or color lead to quality disputes.

Describe the work in plain language and list the system and finish details. Tie each line to the approved estimate.

No warranty or exclusions listed creates false promises and callbacks you eat.

Summarize the warranty term and what is not covered. Note moisture intrusion, structural movement, and maintenance as owner responsibilities if applicable.

Stucco / Plastering Invoice FAQs

Price scratch, brown, and finish coats, EIFS layers, scaffolding, winter conditions, and change orders for homes and commercial work. Get faster approvals and clear answers.

How do I price by square foot vs time and materials?

Use SF for large exterior runs. Use hours for small patches. Example line items: “1,800 SF 3-coat stucco @ $8.50/SF = $15,300” and “Crew labor 12 hrs @ $75/hr = $900.”

What belongs on a stucco invoice for a patch job?

List demo, lath repairs, coats, and color match. Add trip and protection. Example: “Cut-out and demo 25 SF = $250,” “Paper/lath repair 25 SF = $125,” “Finish coat color match = $180.”

How do I bill for scratch, brown, and finish coats on new work?

Break out each coat so clients see the build. Add accessories. Example: “Scratch coat 2,000 SF @ $2.10/SF,” “Brown coat 2,000 SF @ $2.40/SF,” “Acrylic finish 2,000 SF @ $3.00/SF,” “Control joints 180 LF @ $4/LF.”

What should an EIFS scope include so I get paid cleanly?

Show foam, mesh, base, and finish as separate lines. Note manufacturer system and warranty. Example: “EPS foam 2,200 SF,” “Base coat + mesh 2,200 SF,” “Acrylic finish 2,200 SF,” “EIFS warranty fee = $250.”

How do I charge for scaffolding or lifts?

Treat access as its own cost. Price by week or project. Example: “Frame scaffold rental 3 weeks @ $350/week = $1,050,” “Boom lift 45’ 5 days @ $240/day = $1,200.”

Winter conditions added time. Can I bill for heat and tenting?

Yes. List temporary heat, enclosure, and cold-weather admixtures. Example: “Poly sheeting enclosure 1,900 SF = $380,” “Indirect heater 2 units @ $85/day x 6 days = $1,020,” “Accelerator additive 8 bags @ $12 = $96.”

We uncovered rotten sheathing after tear-off. How do I price the change?

Write a change order before work. Show materials and extra hours. Example: “Sheathing replace 12 sheets @ $32 = $384,” “Carpentry labor 10 hrs @ $70/hr = $700,” “New paper/lath 180 SF @ $1.40/SF.”

How should a commercial invoice handle retainage and progress draws?

Bill by percent complete and track retainage. Show stored materials. Example: “Draw #2: Brown coat 60% = $21,000,” “Stored acrylic buckets 40 @ $48 = $1,920,” “10% retainage this draw = $2,292.”
