How to make a carpentry estimate
- Add your business details. Enter your business name, address, phone, and email, and add your logo.
- Enter the client and scope of work. Add who you're quoting and a clear description of the work — framing, trim, cabinetry, or a custom build.
- Itemize the work. Break out labor and materials (lumber, hardware, fasteners), each with a quantity and price.
- Request a deposit and set validity. The generator is in estimate mode — request a deposit to cover materials and note how long the quote is valid, since lumber prices move.
- Download and send for approval. Tap Download PDF and send it to your client to review and approve. Nothing leaves your device.
What to include on a carpentry estimate
A carpentry estimate should describe the work (framing, trim, custom build, or repair), itemize materials like lumber and hardware separately from labor, and reference any drawings or agreed scope, plus a deposit request and a validity period. Note what would trigger a change order, such as design changes or hidden damage found once work begins.
