Rough starting costs for these decking items

Ex GST. What these might cost you, not a price guide for your area. Your own rates, materials and travel come first, then add your profit before you put a rate on the quote. These are starting costs, not customer prices. Your profit goes on top: at 20% profit, a cost of $160 for “Decking boards supplied” is $192 to your customer.

  • Decking boards supplied$80 to $250 / m²
  • Subframe: joists + bearers$30 / m²
  • Stumps + footings$50 to $170 / each
  • Screws + fixings$7 / m²

Why a link quote beats a PDF template

On paper, merbau versus blackbutt means a second quote. On the link it's one tap, and the deposit is paid while they're still excited about it.

  • They say yes on their phone. Accept with their name, a tick or a signature, with a record of who and when.
  • Extras and choices add themselves up. They tick an optional extra or pick one option and the total, GST and deposit follow.
  • The deposit comes with the yes. By card when they accept, or your bank and PayID details show straight after.
  • You know when it's opened. And Karven has a follow-up written for the quiet ones. Nothing goes until you tap Send.
  • They still get a PDF. Attached to the email, matching the link line for line.

Skip the maths and the printing

In Karven these decking items come up as you type with your cost, your profit % is added on top and GST is added for you. Your customer gets a link: they tick any extras, ask a question, accept and pay the deposit by card. You see when they've opened it.

Quote template questions

Common questions

  • Is this decking quote template really free?

    Yes. No email, no sign-up. Type on the page, then print it or save it as a PDF from your browser's print screen.

  • Should my quote show prices including GST?

    If you're registered for GST, show the total including GST. Australian consumer law expects consumers to see a single total price, and the ATO's tax invoice rules apply when the job is invoiced. If you're not registered, don't add GST at all.

  • What terms suit a decking quote?

    This template starts with these: This quote is valid for 30 days. Prices are for the board type listed. Changing species or brand will be re-quoted. Council approval and engineering are included only where listed. Change them to suit how you work.

  • How long should a quote be valid for?

    Most tradies use 14 to 30 days, because material prices move. Put the date on the quote so there's no argument later.

  • What's the difference between this template and Karven?

    This template is a printable page you fill in by hand. Karven builds the quote for you from your own items and prices, adds GST, sends it as a link the customer can accept and pay a deposit on, and tells you when it's opened. 21 days free, then $29/mo inc GST.
