Most quotes are a cost guess with a number added on the end. Put in the hours, materials, travel and overheads against your own rates, and see the price and the margin together — before it goes to the customer.
Each one opens with the cost lines and default rates that trade actually uses, and a sample job already filled in.
Hourly rates, travel, overhead and your minimum charge. They stay in this browser, so every job after the first starts from your real numbers instead of a guess.
Hours, materials, travel, hire, subbies and the extras that always get forgotten — tip fees, permits, parking. The ones people leave out are the ones that eat the margin.
The price updates as you type, and tells you whether the margin is healthy, thin, or below what the job costs you. That is the part a quote template cannot do.
They are not the same number, and quoting one while thinking of the other is the most expensive mistake in trade pricing. Margin is profit divided by the price; markup is profit divided by the cost. A 35% markup is only a 26% margin. Add 35% to a $1,000 job and you have made $350 on a $1,350 invoice — a quarter of it, not a third.
The calculator does both and shows the formula next to the control, so you can price the way you already think and still see what you are really keeping.
