Sample estimate lines - Replace rotted deck boards (boards)12 × $28.00 - Composite deck boards, 12 ft12 × $46.00 - Re-secure railing posts (posts)4 × $40.00 - Pressure wash and seal deck (sq ft)220 × $1.75 Fictional example prices. 1. 1 ### Task-by-task pricing A line per task lets the customer approve some and leave others. 2. 2 ### Material choices Name the material grade so a cheaper substitute is not assumed. 3. 3 ### Hidden-damage clause Rot or water damage is often found only once you open things up; say how it is handled. 4. 4 ### Licensing scope Some states limit the size or type of job a handyman can take without a contractor license. Keep the estimate inside that scope. 5. 5 ### Validity Give the date the price expires.

Rules vary. Some states and cities require a contractor license above a dollar threshold or for certain trades, such as electrical and plumbing. Check the limit where you work before quoting larger jobs. ### How do I handle damage found during the job? Stop and tell the customer, then write the extra work as a revised estimate or a new line they approve before you continue. ### Is this handyman estimate template free? Yes. The Word, Excel and PDF files download without signing up or giving an email address, and the online generator makes PDFs for free.
