Pricing calculators for your trade
Measure the job, enter your rate or a sourced starting point, then allow for extras and a minimum charge. Cost mode shows a selling price at the margin you choose.
Business numbers
Margin against markup, an hourly rate that covers tax and expenses, what a finished job really made, a deposit and its balance, a trip charge, and this year's mileage deduction at both IRS rates.
Estimates, invoices and receipts
Enter the work and amounts, add your business and customer details, then print or save a PDF. Keep payments received separate from money still owed.
Customer messages
Short texts and emails for the moments owners put off: following up a quote, answering “that’s too expensive”, chasing a late invoice, asking for a review, saying you’re running late.
Printable price lists
Describe your packages, units and prices on a sheet customers can keep. Trade templates include starting lines and scope details for your services.
Checklists for the booked job
Job lists in working order for cleaners, turnover crews, landscapers, plow operators, pressure washers, painters and detailers. Take off what the job does not include and print one for the crew.
Service agreements to print and sign
Plain-language agreements for lawn care, landscaping, snow removal, house and window cleaning, painting, handyman work, pools, holiday lights and pet care: what is included, price, schedule, skipped visits, access, extra work and how either side ends it.
