Keep talking to change it: "make it 4 days", "add stump grinding", "good until the end of the month". Or skip it and fill the form in yourself.

1 Your business

Quote your prices excluding GST and this adds it on top, so the customer sees the total they will actually pay. Not registered? Say so and the quote is produced with no GST line, which is the correct document for you.

Three quotes, worked out

What the tool produces, in the three shapes almost every trade quote takes. The arithmetic is here rather than only inside the preview, so you can check it without filling anything in.

A day rate job

Registered for GST
3 days at $850.00 $2,550.00
Hardwood supplied $1,200.00
Subtotal, ex GST $3,750.00
GST at 10% $375.00
Quoted total $4,125.00

Quote your prices excluding GST and let the document add it, so the customer sees the total they will actually pay rather than meeting it at invoicing.

An itemised job

Not registered for GST
Strip out $1,800.00
Waterproofing $900.00
Tiling $3,200.00
Fit off $1,400.00
GST Nil
Quoted total $7,300.00

Itemising is what lets a customer remove a stage rather than reject the whole price, and it is what stops an argument later about what was included.

A fixed price with a validity date

Registered for GST
Remove two gum trees and grind the stumps $2,181.82
GST at 10% $218.18
Valid until End of month
Quoted total $2,400.00

Quoted as a round $2,400 including GST, so the ex-GST figure is the total divided by 1.1. The validity date is the line most people leave off, and the one that protects you when material prices move.

Questions tradies actually ask about quoting#

What should a tradie's quote include?
Your business name and ABN, the customer's name, the date, an itemised breakdown of the work with a price against each line, whether GST is included, the total, and how long the price stands for. The validity date is the one most people leave off, and it is the one that protects you when timber goes up between quoting and starting.
What is the difference between a quote and an estimate?
A quote is a fixed price you are committing to. An estimate is your best guess and can move. If you call it a quote and the customer accepts, you are generally held to that number, so quote only what you have actually priced and use an estimate for the rest.
Do I charge GST on a quote?
Only if you are registered, which becomes compulsory once your turnover reaches $75,000 a year. Quote excluding GST and let the document add it, so the customer sees the real total rather than a surprise later.
How long should a quote be valid for?
Thirty days is the usual default in the trades. Make it shorter when material prices are moving or the job hangs on a subbie's availability. Either way put the date on the document, which is what the "valid until" field above is for.
What happens after they say yes?
The quote becomes the job, and when the work is done you invoice for the agreed amount. Quote first, invoice after, for the number you both agreed.
Is it really free?
Yes. No account, no email address, no watermark, no limit on how many you make. Nothing you type is stored, including your logo.
