Handyman estimate template, with the scope in writing.

On a bigger visit, what's not included matters as much as what is. This estimate lists the tasks, a half-day rate and the materials, and says where the job stops.

Why it's laid out this way

  • Each task priced each, so the customer can cut one
  • A half-day rate for the work that doesn't price well by the task
  • Materials as one lot at cost plus markup
  • A plain included and not-included line in the terms

Or build it by chat

Send Redline a photo of the bathroom and say "quote Paul Jacobs: faucet, toilet, caulk, three accessories, two patches, half day for the mirror and light, $145 materials". It builds the itemized estimate and saves it on his file after you look it over. Once you've told it your half-day rate, it remembers.

Redline doesn't give him a link to approve it; call him or email him from your Gmail. See quotes and estimates or the handyman software page.
