NO-LOGIN PRICING EXAMPLE
Example cost-and-margin calculation using fictional job figures. Enter your own expenses and target margin to create a job-specific estimate.
| Labor | $210 |
|---|---|
| Materials | $45 |
| Travel and overhead | $45 |
| Estimated break-even cost | $300 |
| Target profit margin | 25% |
| Suggested price at that margin | $400 |
| Estimated operating profit | $100 |
Formula: $300 cost ÷ (1 − 0.25 margin) = $400 price, before any applicable tax. Use your actual trade-specific inputs and scope; the calculator's output may differ.
Calculate quotes for heating and cooling service, system maintenance, and diagnostic visits using your own rates and costs—not invented industry averages.
Included: One standalone interactive browser calculator, SGL Brand Studio Pro and setup guide. Open locally on a phone or computer. No paid subscription required for this free tool.
Important: Review all actual pricing, scope, permits, licensing, tax treatment and contract requirements before use. Use a qualified legal, trade-safety or tax professional when specialized advice is required. Payment processing and electronic signatures require separately supported services.
Begin by defining the exact service and quantity. Enter your own crew time, travel, materials, job setup, overhead allocation, discounts and desired margin. Compare the break-even figure with your suggested price and review the amount the customer would see.
Industry-specific use: For heating and cooling diagnostics, preventive maintenance and filter replacement, enter actual job measurements and conditions rather than copying a generic industry price. Specify equipment type, service address, diagnostic versus repair authorization, replacement parts, relevant safety conditions and follow-up recommendations. Every customer-facing figure should be reviewed before use.
Confirm whether the quoted amount is diagnostic-only, maintenance, repair or project work; make applicable taxes and deposits explicit. Save the customer-facing PDF when the information is ready. The calculator helps you reason about costs; it does not independently verify site conditions, licensing or profit outcomes.
Can I use it on mobile? The browser-based calculator works on a compatible phone or desktop browser. Will it choose my rates? No—your actual labor, cost and margin inputs drive the estimate. Do I need a cloud subscription? No hosted account is included with this standalone calculator.
From cost estimate to customer proposal: After calculating crew cost, system or component parts, travel and margin, compare the HVAC Three-Tier Proposal Builder for repair and maintenance choices or the complete HVAC toolkit for related online modules and documents. Learn how to scope an HVAC job.
