Quotes from a free address look less established
When a homeowner compares three quotes, the one from quotes@yourcompany.com looks more like an established business than one from a free webmail account.

The problem
Email headaches contractors know well
Email happens on site, on a phone
You and your crew read and reply between jobs. Your email has to work in the phone’s mail app, not just at a desk.
Crews change from season to season
Site leads and office help come and go. Per-user email plans mean paying for every seat, every month.
Supplier and invoice mail mixed with everything else
Quotes, supplier confirmations, permits and invoices all landing in one personal inbox makes it easy to lose track of a job.
Addresses that work
Example addresses for contractors
Create them as full mailboxes, or as aliases that deliver into an existing inbox — aliases don't use up a mailbox.
- quotes@Quote requests from your website and customers
- jobs@Booked work, scheduling and site access details
- invoices@Sending invoices and receiving payments queries
- suppliers@Orders, delivery notes and trade accounts
- office@General enquiries and paperwork
- mike@A named mailbox for each site lead
One phone, several addresses
Make quotes@, jobs@ and invoices@ aliases of your own mailbox. Everything arrives in the mail app on your phone, but customers see an organised business.
Catch-all for van and flyer addresses
Put a memorable address on your van or flyers; with catch-all enabled, even a slightly wrong address still reaches you.
Hand off the office inbox
Create office@ as its own mailbox so a partner or office manager can log in on their own device over IMAP and handle paperwork.
Stop paying per seat

FAQ
FAQs
How much is business email for a small contractor?
You can try it free for 14 days with 1 domain and 1 mailbox. HavitoMail Pro is $19 per year for up to 20 mailboxes and 5 domains — not per user. Seven users on Google Workspace Business Starter would cost about $588 per year at list price.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes. Add your mailbox to the built-in mail app on iPhone or Android using IMAP and SMTP, or use the webmail in your phone’s browser.
Do I need a website to get business email?
You need a domain name, but not a website. If you already have a website, your email can be added without changing it.
Can quotes@ and invoices@ go to my own inbox?
Yes. Create them as aliases of your mailbox and they arrive in the same inbox, or make them separate mailboxes if someone else handles them.
