Quoting software
for scaffolders.
The builder's standing next to you wanting a price for a four-elevation wrap. Instead of going away to work it out, open the app, count off the lifts and elevations, set the hire period, and email a branded, GST-ready quote before you've left site. First in with a proper price usually wins the work.

The problem
Price the scaffold before you leave site
Scaffolders lose jobs to whoever quotes first. QuickPrice prices the scaffold by lifts, elevations and hire period from your phone while you're still standing under it, with council permits and extended hire included.
No two scaffolds price the same
Lift count, number of elevations, working height, planks, ties and edge protection all move the number. A flat figure off the top of your head either loses you the job or eats your margin once it's up.
Council permits add cost and lead time
Anything over the footpath or road reserve needs a council occupancy permit, and the fee and lead time vary by council. Forget to price it in and that cost comes straight out of your margin.
Jobs overrun and extended hire goes unbilled
The first hire period is in the quote. Then the roofer runs three weeks over and that scaffold's still standing. If extended hire isn't spelled out up front, you're carrying the cost or arguing about it later.

Features
What's in it for scaffolders
A native phone app for quoting on-site. Same data on the web dashboard when you're back at the desk.
Knows how scaffolds are priced
Prices by lift count, elevations and working height, with planks, ties and edge protection on top, rather than one flat figure. Describe the structure and the quote builds itself, the way a scaffolder works it out in their head.
Council permits as line items
Add the council's footpath or road occupancy permit as its own line so the builder sees exactly what the council charges and what you charge to handle it. Nothing hidden. Nothing eating your margin later.
Hire period and extended hire, spelled out
Set the first hire period and the weekly extended-hire rate up front. When the job overruns, your customer already agreed the cost, so the extra weeks bill themselves.
Send to the builder, they accept online
The builder gets a link to view the branded quote in their browser and accept it. You get notified the moment they do, and you can convert it to a GST tax invoice in one tap.

Testimonial
What tradespeople say
“Builder wanted a price for a full wrap while I was still on site. Counted the lifts and elevations into the app, set four weeks' hire with a weekly rate after, sent it before I packed the ute. He accepted that afternoon. When the roofers ran over the extended hire was already agreed, no argument.”

FAQ
Things people ask
Quick answers on accuracy, pricing, your data, and what happens after you send a quote.
How does it price a scaffold?
You quote by lift count, number of elevations and hire period rather than a single flat figure. Tell the app how many lifts and elevations the structure needs, the working height, and any planks, ties or edge protection, and it builds an itemised price. You review every line before sending and can adjust anything for awkward access or a non-standard layout.
Can I include council permits?
Yes. Where the scaffold goes over the footpath or road reserve you can add the council occupancy permit as its own line item, so the builder sees exactly what the council charges and what you charge to handle it. Fees and lead times vary by council, so you set the figure for your area.
How does extended hire work in the quote?
You set the first hire period, four weeks for example, and a weekly extended-hire rate that kicks in after it. The quote spells both out, so when the job overruns the customer has already agreed the cost of the extra weeks and the additional hire bills cleanly with no dispute.
Can I put the handover certificate and inspections in the quote?
Yes. Add the handover certificate and the mandatory 30-day inspections as line items or note them in your quote terms, along with your high-risk work licence details. Builders expect to see them, and having them on the PDF shows the job's being run to WHS requirements rather than priced as an afterthought.
What happens after I send a quote?
The builder or homeowner gets an email with a link to view the full quote in their browser. They can accept or decline it right there, no app needed. You get an email notification the moment they respond, and any accepted quote can be converted to a GST tax invoice in one tap.
Is the quote branded, and how accurate is it?
Every PDF carries your logo, business name, ABN and contact details, and your data stays yours. For standard scaffolds like re-roof jobs, house wraps and access towers, most scaffolders send the quote as the software generates it. For an unusual height, tight access or a temporary roof, edit the line items before sending. The more detail you give, the sharper the price.
