ProfitBidConstruction Estimate Generator
Build a Good / Better / Best estimate in minutes: three tiers help clients choose instead of haggling. Print or save the client PDF — the print view hides your internal costs and margins automatically.
Line items — cost is internal, tiers are client prices per item
Why three tiers work
Answer first: A single price invites a yes/no fight; three tiers move the conversation to which option — and the middle tier (Better) is where most clients land. Keep the scope difference honest: materials grade, warranty length and finish level are the levers, never hidden margin games.
Internal check before you send: run the Better total through the markup vs margin calculator and confirm it clears your margin floor.
Frequently asked questions
Does the client PDF show my costs or margins?
No. The printed sheet shows only your business name, the client/project, scope items and the three tier totals. Costs, markups and margins stay in the editor, which the print stylesheet hides.
How do I save the estimate as a PDF?
Click Print / Save client PDF and choose Save as PDF in your browser print dialog. Only the estimate sheet is printed.
