Late-paying clients can put real pressure on your cash flow. 💸

If you’ve ever wondered whether contractors can charge late fees or interest on overdue invoices, this blog breaks down the basics: when late fees may apply, why the terms need to be clear upfront, and what to consider before adding them to your contracts or invoices.

Quick note: this is general guidance for contractors, not legal advice or a late-fee service. Rules can vary by state, so it’s always worth checking with a local attorney or accountant before making changes to your payment terms.

Less typing. Faster estimating and invoicing. 💸

Joist’s built-in AI tools help take some of the work out of the paperwork. Whether you’re creating an estimate before the job or sending an invoice after, just type or say a quick description and Joist creates a draft in seconds.

You stay in control from there. Review it, make any changes, and send when it looks right.

Because paperwork shouldn’t be the hardest part of the job.
