How to use
- Fill in the fields above with your own figures — results update live as you type.
- Labour, material and other costs are added, contingency covers surprises, and margin is applied on the total cost.
- Check the result box and adjust any rate or parameter to test other cases.
Note: Quote validity and payment terms should be written on the quotation you send — this tool only works out the price.
Tips
- Add a contingency percent to every quote — surprises are normal in project work.
- Be clear whether the quote includes tax; write it on the quotation you send.
- Test two versions — a lean quote and a comfortable quote — then decide your final price.
- Break big projects into milestones so the client sees what each part costs.
