What a plumber's quote must include
- Your business name and contact details (and logo, if you have one)
- A quote number and the date
- The client's name and the job address
- Itemised lines: each piece of work and each material, with its price
- The total, and whether VAT (or your local sales tax) is included
- How long the price holds — 30 days is standard
- What's excluded, stated plainly
- Deposit and payment terms, so the money conversation happens before the work
Tips from the trade
- Separate parts from labour — a cylinder and four hours are not one number, and itemising is what stops the haggling.
- Name the parts. "Parts: pump, TRV ×3" reads as checkable; "materials" reads as padding.
- Charge the call-out as its own line so diagnosis is visibly paid work, not free.
- For emergency jobs, invoice the same day — the 7pm burst pipe is the job most likely to never get billed.
Common questions
- What should a plumber's quote include?
- Your business details, a quote number and date, the client and job address, itemised lines for labour and materials, the total, how long the price holds, what's excluded, and your deposit terms. The template above carries all of it.
- Is this plumber quote template really free?
- Yes — view it, download it as a PDF and use it on real jobs, no signup asked. It's from SoloDesks, a quoting and invoicing app for solo tradespeople; if you'd rather build the quote on your phone and send it from the doorstep, the app has a free plan too.
- Quote or estimate — which should I send?
- A quote is a fixed price for defined work; an estimate is an informed guess that can move. Customers prefer quotes, so quote whenever the scope is knowable and keep the genuinely unknown out as a stated exclusion or provisional line.
- How long should my quote stay valid?
- Thirty days is the common default — shorten it when material prices are moving, and say so on the quote. A validity window also gives an undecided customer a gentle reason to stop drifting.
