Quotes are estimates. Define scope, assumptions, expiration, and change-order terms before approval.
Questions people usually check before using this result
Is a quote the same as an invoice?
No. A quote or estimate is usually sent before work is approved. An invoice is sent when payment is requested for approved or completed work.
Should the deposit be based on the total with tax?
It depends on your agreement and local rules. The calculator applies the deposit to the estimated total so you can see the cash needed before the project starts.
Quote from the full job
Separate labor and materials before you add tax or a deposit. That makes it easier to explain the number, revise the scope, and turn the approved estimate into an invoice later.
Add terms before sending
The calculator gives a clean starting point, but a real quote should also include scope, exclusions, timeline, expiration date, payment terms, and change-order rules.
