Handyman Quote Details Checklist
================================
A pre-send checklist of the lines every handyman quote needs so it wins the job and settles the arguments that usually show up at invoice time.

[ ] Customer name, service address, phone number and email at the top of the quote
[ ] Quote number and the date the quote was sent
[ ] A valid-until date so the price does not float forever
[ ] One plain sentence describing the outcome the customer wants, not just a task list
[ ] Itemized scope with one line per task, in the order you plan to do the work
[ ] Labor listed separately from materials so the customer can see where the money goes
[ ] Each material marked as included, estimated, or supplied by the customer
[ ] Any minimum charge or half-day rate stated as such, with what it covers
[ ] Your hourly rate for work beyond the stated scope
[ ] A short section titled What this quote does not cover
[ ] What happens if hidden damage such as rot, mold, or old wiring turns up
[ ] Whether haul-away and disposal of old materials are included
[ ] Who pulls permits if the job needs any, and who pays the fee
[ ] How changes and add-ons get approved and priced before the work continues
[ ] Deposit amount, if any, and when the balance is due
[ ] Accepted payment methods and any card processing fee policy
[ ] A realistic start date and the expected number of visits or days
[ ] What the customer needs to provide: access, a cleared workspace, water or power shut-off
[ ] Your callback or workmanship guarantee in one sentence
[ ] How to accept the quote: reply, sign, or pay the deposit
[ ] License and insurance details where your state or city requires them on written estimates
[ ] A final read-through for typos and a check that the total matches the line items
