A window replacement estimate is priced per opening and lost on everything around the opening. Each unit is measurable and quotable; what varies is the access to reach it, the state of what the old frame is fixed into, and the making good afterwards, which on older buildings is most of the labour. The documents that close the job matter as much, because a replacement is a job customers remember by the mess and the paperwork.
Measure every opening, do not assume they match
Openings in the same elevation differ by enough to matter, and out-of-square is the norm in older buildings. Measure each, record it against the opening, and state whether the price assumes the existing aperture is sound.
Access and making good are separate lines
Upper floors, bay windows, awkward ground and anything needing a tower or scaffold are a cost of their own. Making good internally, plaster, sills, decoration, is the line most often assumed by the customer and excluded by the contractor, so say which it is.
Close the job with a field service report template and the completion documents
A certificate of completion construction handover, any compliance certificates the work requires, and the record of what was installed. A field service report template or a daily activity report kept during the work is what those are assembled from, and assembling them afterwards from memory is how handover slips a week.
Questions people ask about window replacement estimate template
Should making good be included?
Either answer works if it is stated. Including it wins jobs and needs pricing properly; excluding it needs saying in words the customer will read, because they will assume it is included.
What about disposal of the old units?
Include it and say so. It is a real cost, it is visible on the day, and a skip appearing as an extra after the work is the sort of surprise that costs a review.
Why keep a daily activity report on a short job?
Because a two-day job with three trades and a neighbour dispute produces the same questions as a long one. A dated record of who was on site and what was done answers them in a minute.
