Handyman quoting when every visit is slightly different

You might fit a blind, rehang a gate, and troubleshoot a leak in one visit. You still need a repeatable way to capture labour bands, consumables, and travel so “small jobs” stay profitable.

Handymen lose money on stacked tasks because each one is priced like it was the only job that day. Quotimiser helps you line out task bundles, minimum charges, and materials so the customer sees a serious breakdown — and you see margin before you squeeze in one more favour.

Built for how you price real jobs

Multi-task visits — minimum time and task bundles

Line the first hour, additional half-hours, and discrete tasks so a three-job visit does not collapse into one vague “handyman rate” that forgot the second ladder trip.

Materials and fixings that never make the text message quote

Screws, anchors, silicone, and small ironmongery belong as lines or a controlled sundries block — otherwise five £6 bags a week quietly erase your day rate.

Travel bands for van routes across postcodes

Capture realistic travel when you cross town between jobs — especially on short visits where fuel and time are a higher share of the sell price.

Phone-first quoting at the door

Layouts that work one-handed on a phone mean fewer “I will send something tonight” promises that turn into rushed, underpriced emails.

Frequently asked questions

I do many different types of work — will it fit?

Yes. You are not locked to one trade template — line items flex to the job while keeping pricing habits consistent.

Can I try it before paying?

Yes. Create a free account to explore quoting and invoicing; upgrade when you outgrow free limits.

Does it work for multi-trade sole traders?

Yes. The structure is job-based, not a rigid single-trade wizard — many users cover more than one trade.
