Free Hourly Rate Calculator for UK Tradesmen
Most tradespeople undercharge because they only think about hours on the tools. This calculator factors in your target income, real overheads, holidays and billable hours so you know what to actually charge.
- All overheads in one place: Van, fuel, insurance, tools, phone, software, accountant, marketing. We pre-fill typical UK figures so you have a starting point.
- Realistic billable hours: Adjusts for holidays, sick days, bank holidays and the % of your day that is actually billable. No assumption that you work 2,080 hours a year.
- Day rate and hourly rate: See both numbers side by side. Use the day rate for fixed-price jobs and the hourly rate for callouts.

Add VAT to a net price, or remove VAT from a gross price. Covers all three UK VAT rates - 20% standard, 5% reduced and 0% zero-rated. No signup, no app to install.
- Add or remove VAT: Either start with a net price and add VAT, or start with a gross price and break out the VAT portion. Both directions in one tool.
- All three UK rates: Switch between 20% standard, 5% reduced (energy-saving work, mobility aids) and 0% zero-rated in one tap.
- Instant breakdown: Net, VAT and gross shown side by side. Copy any of them straight onto a paper quote or invoice.
Why are these tools free?
We build software for UK tradespeople. Most of you are juggling quotes, invoices, customer calls and actual work on the tools. The last thing you need is another company asking you to enter card details before you can see if their product is any good.
These tools are 100% free. No trial limit, no credit card, no email required to use them. They exist because we know what it feels like to need a proper VAT invoice on a Sunday evening, or a basic website to point customers at when they ask "do you have a website?".
If you want the full VioTrade business app (with job management, customer records, AI voice assistant, payment tracking and more), we offer a 14-day free trial - again, no card required. Otherwise, just use the free tools as much as you like.
Built for every UK trade
These tools work for every UK tradesperson, sole trader and small trade business. Whether you're sending your first VAT invoice or putting together a website for your new venture, you'll find them useful.
