Thanks for the help guys,

Did the businees cards online and goodprint, then transferred the design myself onto an estimate form in excel, and a letterhead in word, which then got transferred into an email template for good measure so should be pretty much covered.

I've included the payment terms on the estimate form which includes a table breaking down all the materials and unit costs etc, then the total cost at the bottom. It also has a written description of the job i.e supply and fit....... and also shows the labour cost.

I've also made a much less detailed version to give as a payment reciept.

Cant really think of anything else from the quotation angle.

Time to move onto the bookkeeping but that thread will save for another day.

Cheers guys.

Im afraid im a bit more gung ho and have a quick look, measure up, ask a few questions, do my sums and give them a price that I will stick to. I may back this up with any prep work will be charged at XX per hr on top of my tiling price and I expect that to take x hours.
I then get out the diary, see when im next free and try and get a handshake!
I usually know by their facial expression if i need look at the diary!
Only time i give a written quote is for insurance work.
