Questions
- What’s the difference between markup and margin?
- Markup is profit as a share of your costs; margin is profit as a share of the price. A 25% markup gives a 20% margin. This calculator uses markup.
- Should I quote a range?
- For most trade jobs, yes. Something like 10% under to 15% over your figure covers jobs that turn out easier or harder than they looked, and customers appreciate knowing the likely spread.
- Do I add tax?
- Only if you’re registered for VAT, GST or sales tax and it applies to your work. Each country has its own rules and a turnover threshold for registering, so check with your tax authority. In the US and Canada, tax is usually added on top of the price you quote; elsewhere, homeowners expect prices that include it.
