Job details

Start with the work you’re quoting.

Scope reminders only. These selections do not change your price. Review labor hours, chemicals, and other costs yourself.

  • Wood may need surface-specific preparation and cleaning. Review test-area time and suitable material allowances rather than treating it like concrete.
02

Job size

An area is optional. Your time estimate drives labor cost.

sq ft
Enter 0 if quoting by time.
Include setup, cleaning, and pack-up in your time estimate.
03

Labor

Include your own labor, even when you work solo.

workers
hrs
$
What one worker’s time costs your business, including wages and any payroll costs. Include a fair hourly cost for your own work too. This is not the hourly rate you charge the customer.
Total labor cost$120.00
04

Job costs

Costs directly attributable to this job.

$
$
$
A per-job allowance for equipment wear, maintenance and eventual replacement.
$
Vehicle and fuel cost for this job. If you want to pay yourself for driving time, include that time in estimated labor hours. Don’t count fuel here again if it is already included above.

Business economics

Give overhead and profit a place in every quote.

$
A share of business costs such as insurance, software, advertising, phone and storage that are not direct job expenses.
%
The percentage your payment provider takes from the customer’s payment. Use your actual fee; it is a percentage of the selling price, not your job costs.
%
The share of the selling price you want to keep after the entered job costs and payment fees. A 30% margin means keeping $30 of each $100 charged. It is not the same as adding 30% to costs.
$
Your smallest worthwhile service call, even for a tiny job. This is a true price floor. Urgency is added first, then any discount is limited so your final quote never falls below this minimum.
%
An optional extra allowance calculated as a percentage of direct job costs. It is added to allocated overhead. Use it only for expenses you have not already counted.

Railings can change the job.

Deck floor area alone misses railings, stairs, balusters, and vertical surfaces. Mark detail work in the scope and include the added hours. A small deck with extensive railings can take longer than a larger open patio.

Keep cleaning and restoration distinct.

Record whether the surface is wood, composite, or masonry. Stripping, brightening, repair, and staining are separate scope decisions. Include only the work you have actually costed, with suitable allowances for the material and condition.
