What to include
What goes on a contractor estimate
Clients say yes faster when they can see what they are getting. This template already has every part in place.
- 1Your business and the clientYour name, email and phone, and who you are billing. Add the job address when it differs from theirs. In Canada, add your GST/HST number once you are registered.
- 2An estimate number and a valid until dateA number so the client’s yes matches the right quote, and how long the price holds.
- 3The scope, task by taskEach part of the job on its own line, so the client sees what they are paying for and what is not included.
- 4Materials and allowancesFixed prices for what you know, and an allowance for what the client still has to choose, like hardware or tile.
- 5Taxes and the totalEach tax with its rate, like GST 5% and PST 6% in Saskatchewan or sales tax 5% in Wisconsin, then the total.
- 6Deposit and next stepsWhat is due to start, when the rest is billed, and how the client says yes.

How long should a contractor estimate stay valid?
Thirty days is common. Material prices move, so a valid until date protects you, and an expired estimate is a good reason to call the client.
How do I ask for a deposit on a renovation?
Say what is due on acceptance in the notes. In the Sumocat app you can add a payment schedule with a deposit and stage payments, and each one becomes its own invoice when it is due.
Which taxes does this template use?
The Canada version uses GST 5% and PST 6% for Saskatchewan, in Canadian dollars. The US version uses sales tax 5% for Wisconsin, in US dollars. They are examples: which taxes apply depends on where you work and what you sell, so check with your tax authority.
