Parts and labour, separated
Customers trust a quote where the boiler, cylinder, controls and consumables are listed with quantities, and labour is shown as days or a package. Markup on parts and margin on the whole are applied automatically.
Quoting software for plumbers and heating engineers
Bathroom refits, boiler swaps, full heating systems: the parts list is long, the margins are tight and the customer wants a number tonight. EstiMate builds the quote from parts and labour, shows the customer optional upgrades they can tick themselves, takes the deposit by card and chases the balance so you don't have to.
- Bathroom and wet-room refits
- Boiler replacements and system upgrades
- Full central heating installs
- Underfloor heating
- Unvented cylinders
- Landlord and commercial maintenance
What a good plumber's quote needs
Priced properly, explained clearly, paid on time
Upsells that sell themselves
Smart thermostat, magnetic filter, powerflush, towel rail upgrade — add them as optional extras. The customer ticks what they want on the quote link and the total updates live.
Deposit before you order
Take the deposit by card from the quote page before the boiler is ordered; the balance invoices and reminders run automatically.
Underfloor heating sized properly
The wet and electric UFH calculators size pipe, flow rates and mats from room areas, so the quote is right before you're on your knees on site.
Where plumbers & heating engineers lose money on quotes
- Forgetting disposal of the old boiler, cylinder and rubble
- Quoting a like-for-like swap that becomes a system conversion
- Not building in the powerflush or system clean
- Losing track of which customers still owe the balance

Questions plumbers & heating engineers ask
Can I quote a bathroom with tiles, sanitaryware and labour together?
Yes — separate material categories for sanitaryware, tiles and adhesives, first fix and second fix, with a labour package for each trade involved. The tiling calculator gives you tile, adhesive and grout quantities.
Can customers choose upgrades on the quote?
Yes. Optional extras are shown on the quote link with prices; the customer ticks them, the total updates and their choices are recorded when they accept.
Does it chase late payers for me?
Yes. Turn on automatic chasing and overdue invoices get a polite reminder email with a pay-online link every few days, up to three times per invoice.
Is there a phone app?
Yes, EstiMate for iPhone — quotes, photos, voice notes, receipts and payments sync with the web app.
