If you're an electrician looking to grow your business, improve customer retention, and save time on admin --- Smart Service Stickers from Workbelt can do the heavy lifting for you.

They're simple, professional, and powerful --- and at just 50p per sticker, they can help turn every electrical job into repeat revenue.

What Are Smart Service Stickers?

Workbelt's Smart Service Stickers are durable QR code labels you apply directly to electrical installations, boards, or equipment. When scanned by a customer, the sticker links them to a custom web pageshowing:

  • Service and installation history
  • Your contact details
  • A "Book Again" button
  • Automated SMS/email reminders
  • Access to a secure customer portal

You manage everything from your Workbelt dashboard, helping you stay organised, in touch, and top-of-mind.

Why Smart Stickers Are Ideal for Electricians

Unlike boiler servicing, electrical work doesn't always follow a strict annual schedule --- which is exactly why many customers forget to book follow-ups, testing or maintenance.

Smart Service Stickers help electricians:

  • Stay visible long after the job
  • Prompt clients to rebook EICR checks, PAT testing, or safety inspections
  • Record installation history professionally
  • Get referrals from sticker scans
  • Stand out from less-organised competitors

Whether you work on domestic properties, commercial premises or HMO compliance --- Smart Service Stickers are your best tool for retention and reputation.

Real-World Use Cases for Electricians

Here are a few examples of how electricians across the UK are using Smart Service Stickers:

🏠 1. Domestic Fuse Board Installations

Place a sticker inside or near the new consumer unit. Log the install date, test results, and next recommended check-up (e.g. every 5 years). Set a reminder so the customer gets a nudge before their EICR is due.

Result: They scan to see the install date, rebook you, and have the certificate history all in one place.

🏢 2. Commercial Electrical Safety Checks

Apply stickers to distribution boards in commercial buildings or retail units. Use Workbelt to log PAT testing dates, emergency lighting checks, and the client contact.

Result: Office managers or landlords can scan and instantly see when each item was last tested, with an easy way to rebook you.

🛠️ 3. Landlord & HMO Compliance

Stick Smart Service Stickers to equipment in rental properties: boilers, smoke alarms, consumer units. Log service records and inspection due dates.

Result: Landlords love the professional records and reminders. You get repeat work across multiple properties.

⚡ 4. EV Charger Installations

Add a Smart Service Sticker to the EV charger post-install. Include model details, install date, and warranty info.

Result: When faults or servicing are needed, the homeowner knows exactly who to call --- and how to reach you.

🏡 5. Lighting Projects

Install smart or garden lighting? Attach a sticker to the control panel or external unit. Customers can scan it to rebook enhancements or maintenance later.

Result: Turn one-off installs into ongoing support or upgrades.

Using Smart Stickers is quick and easy:
