When to use a estimate
For a water heater replacement, list the unit, connection fittings, removal and installation labor. Note access restrictions and existing pipe condition.
What should it include?
Use the fixture / appliance, pipe type, drain / leak location, service type fields to identify the job. Add diagnostic visit, repair labor, pipe & fittings, fixture, water heater from the quick-add suggestions, then enter your quantities and rates.
Estimate vs. quote vs. invoice
An estimate communicates an expected price. A quote typically offers a more definite price for a defined scope. An invoice requests payment. Describe the status and terms clearly on each document.
A few useful answers
What makes this plumbing estimate different?
Record the fixture, pipe material and leak or drain location. Distinguish diagnostic work, repair labor, fittings and replacement equipment.
Can I turn an estimate into a work order?
Yes. Convert to Work Order creates a separate document with the same customer, job site, item list and trade details. Your estimate remains saved in this browser.
How are sales tax and discounts calculated?
The discount reduces the subtotal first. It is allocated proportionally to taxable items, and sales tax applies to their remaining amount. Choose your own rate and review which items are taxable.
