Paper Daywork Books Are Costing You Money.
Paper sheets get lost. Signatures get disputed. Billing takes days. There’s a better way — and it takes 5 minutes to switch.
About
Most subcontractors start with paper daywork books. They’re familiar, require no setup, and work fine for small jobs with trusted clients.
But as your business grows, paper breaks down. Sheets go missing between site and office. Handwriting becomes illegible. Clients dispute unsigned work weeks later. And every month-end, someone spends hours transferring paper records into spreadsheets and invoices.
The hidden cost of paper isn’t the books themselves. It’s the hours of admin, the billing errors, and the unpaid work you’ll never recover. Dayworkbook eliminates all of it.

About
The true cost of paper. At 10–12 hours per month of admin time, and an average of $60/hr, paper daywork is costing your business $600–$720 every month in labour alone. That’s before counting billing errors, disputes, and unpaid work.
Dayworkbook at 50 sheets per month costs a fraction of that. Most businesses recoup the annual subscription cost in the first month of saved admin time.
Getting started takes less than a day. Create your Rates Directory, add your projects, and your team is ready to create their first digital sheet. No training required, no IT support, no installation.
"We were running paper daywork books for 12 years. I was embarrassed it took us that long to switch. We saved about 15 hours a month from day one."
