Stop guessing labor hours, underpricing fixtures, and forgetting overhead. QuickEstimate auto-calculates every line item, embeds your margin, and sends a professional proposal — in under 3 minutes.
Most plumbers are skilled tradespeople — not accountants. These are the hidden profit killers that show up on every job.
Rough-in, trim-out, and fixture installation take longer than memory suggests. One miscalculation wipes your margin across an entire project.
Avg. loss: −$4,200/jobPipe, fittings, valves, and fixtures fluctuate constantly. Estimating from memory or old quotes means you absorb every price increase.
Avg. loss: −$3,800/jobTrucks, insurance, licenses, tools — your running costs are real. Most estimates don't include them, so you pay overhead out of "profit."
Avg. loss: −$5,100/jobHandwritten quotes, spreadsheets, and email threads look unprofessional. Clients perceive low price = low quality and choose someone else.
Lost bids: up to 40%Spending 3 hours on a quote you might not win is a hidden cost. Slow estimates mean you bid fewer jobs and grow slower.
Time wasted: 4–6 hrs/weekAdding "20% on top" without knowing your real costs means you're guessing. You can win the job and still lose money.
Avg. loss: −$6,300/jobNot a generic spreadsheet. A purpose-built estimating workflow designed around how plumbing jobs actually work.
