An estimate is a written price you are offering before the work starts. The two things that decide whether it wins the job are how clearly it describes the scope and how obviously it expires.
What a contractor estimate should contain
- Your business details and license number where required
- The customer name and the job address
- An estimate number and the date you wrote it
- A valid until date, because prices move and you should not be held to a number from six months ago
- Scope in plain language, line by line, so the customer knows what is and is not included
- What is explicitly excluded, which is the line that prevents most disputes
- Subtotal, tax, any deposit required to book the work, and the total
What goes on a flooring contractor estimate
These are the lines a flooring job usually needs. They are already in the template and in the generator, so you edit rather than start from an empty page.
- Tear out and dispose existing floor
- Subfloor prep and leveling compound
- Luxury vinyl plank, 850 sq ft
- Transitions, thresholds and shoe molding
- Furniture move and haul away
Delete what does not apply, add what does. The point is that a customer looking at an itemized flooring estimate can see where the money went, which is what stops the argument before it starts.
Flooring is priced per square foot and sold per box, and the box coverage is different for almost every product. The material line is a box count, not the room area, and the difference between the two is the waste allowance.
What to settle before the Flooring estimate goes out
Subfloor prep is the line that moves. Say how much leveling the price includes and what happens if the old floor comes up and the subfloor needs more than that.
