Mechanical contractors in South Africa handle everything from pipework and pump installations to compressor rooms and planned maintenance contracts for factories, plants, and commercial buildings. Jobs range from urgent breakdown callouts, where speed decides who gets the work, to six-figure installations that need a deposit before equipment gets ordered. Sending a detailed, VAT-ready quote by WhatsApp straight after walking the site keeps procurement moving without extra back-and-forth on paperwork.

Questions about Prummo for mechanical contractors?
Dictate it the same way, just at scale: 'Replace 3 line shaft bearings, supply and fit, R4,200. Realign motor coupling, R1,850. Labour, 2 fitters, 1 day, R1,450 per day each.' Prummo structures it whether it's one job or a full plant shutdown.
Once the quote's accepted, you can issue a proper VAT invoice for the client's finance department, with your VAT number and the 15% clearly shown. Keeps procurement happy without extra paperwork on your side.
Dictate on-site: 'Emergency pump seal replacement, supply and fit, R3,850. Callout fee, after hours, R1,200. Labour, 3 hours, R650 per hour.' Send it before you've packed the toolbox, while the plant's still down and the decision's urgent.
Request a deposit via PayShap or EFT to place the equipment order, then progress payments tied to delivery and completion. A R400,000 installation becomes a R150,000 deposit, R150,000 on delivery, and R100,000 on commissioning, which procurement can actually plan around.
Save the contract scope as a template: 'Monthly PM visit, lubrication, belt inspection, vibration check, 3 machines, R4,500 per visit.' Reuse it every month without redictating the whole scope, and adjust it if the contract changes.
Once accepted, send a PayShap payment request for the deposit, or the client pays by EFT against your invoice, which is standard for most corporate clients anyway. Cash isn't typical at this scale, but PayShap is useful for smaller ad hoc callouts.
