What is in the template
Your details and quote number
Company name, address, VAT and company numbers, quote date and how long the price is valid.
Scope of works
Exactly what you will do, so there is no argument later about what was included.
Exclusions
What is not in the price — the line that saves most disputes.
Price table with VAT
Labour, materials, plant and subcontractors, with subtotal, VAT at 20% and total.
Payment terms
Deposit to book the start date, stage payments, balance on completion and your bank details.
Acceptance box
Customer name, signature and date, so you have a clear yes before you start.
Tips for a quote that gets accepted
- Call it a quote, not an estimate, if the price is fixed — customers trust a firm figure.
- Only add VAT if you are VAT registered, and show your VAT number when you do.
- Say how long the price is valid for, so a slow yes does not lock you into old material prices.
- Ask for a deposit to book the start date — it filters out time-wasters.
- List exclusions plainly. It is easier to agree extras before the job than argue after.
