Yeah Its called "your nose" time on site plus materials and mark up, however for larger Jobs I can understand that some of us need a program, I have the estimator 200 program which works, it is out of date now, I expect there is an estimator 2012 haha, basically you add your rates into it and it has the most popular lights and dist boards etc inside it, you may have to alter the prices abit allowing for inflation, unless you pay for updates of course, I'm sure there are others about too.

£20 all in, plus an hour with your wife... Well, I am Polish ;)
 
I used to do Wedding Photography.

The pages inside the album and the size of photo could vary. So I made an excel script that gave me: number of pictures, number of pages (of a style), size of pictures, album cover, add vat, add 20% (for E&OE), then add 50% (my 'salary').

I'm trying to adapt at the moment but there's a lot of variables. Easier if you stick to certain type of kit.

What I'm saying is if I can do it, anyone can.

If I ever get it finished I'll stick it up. All you'll have to do is change the name of the item and the base price, it'll do the rest for you.

I'm omitting the salary bit. This is just for parts.
 
Well i was going to use tlc as a guide, but i know my wholesaler is way cheaper...

I did a similar thing with Exel when I had a Flightcase manufacturing company.

I just needed to enter the sizes of the case, choose what style of case it would be and what fittings it was going to have etc.

At the end, it produced the total price, the weight of the case, the time it had to be built in, all the cutting lists for the panels & aluminium framework and a parts list for the handles & catches etc.

If the job became live, it also deducted the stock used from the store and flagged-up any parts that were getting low in the store so I knew what I needed to re-order.

It took a while to create and perfect, but once it was working properly it do the job very nicely for over 10 years.

I was told early on that it would be better to use a database for the job, but I wasn't very good with databases at the time - and only slightly better with spreadsheets come to think of it......
 
Learn how to use Excel. It comes free with most new machines loaded with MS Office.

Not difficult to learn for a sparky because we regularly have to do basic calc's - some plumbers might struggle though!!!
