What to put on a pool service estimate

Put the regular service on one line with the dates it covers. Repairs and parts go on separate lines.

  • your business name, phone and email
  • your customer's name and the address of the job
  • an estimate number, the date and how long the price holds
  • each service and each part you plan to supply on its own line, with quantity and rate
  • any discount, tax and deposit to start
  • the total, and what the price leaves out

What an estimate has to show can differ by state, so check what applies where you work. This is general information, not tax or legal advice.

What each line on this estimate is for

Pool service is weekly visits plus the occasional repair. The invoice shows the visits, and each repair and part on its own line.

Regular service
The number of visits in the quantity column and your price per visit.
Work outside the routine
A filter cleaning, on its own line.
Parts
A cartridge, an O-ring: one line each, even the small ones.

In the notes, write the dates of the visits and the readings you took, as plain numbers.

Where pool paperwork goes wrong: repairs folded into the monthly service. Keep the regular visits on one line and every repair apart, so the customer sees what the month costs without them.

Pool service estimate questions

What do I need to estimate weekly service?

The size of the pool, the equipment, whether it is screened, and how it has been kept up.

Should the first visit be priced differently?

A pool that has been let go takes more work. Show the first visit or a clean-up as its own line.

How do I estimate a repair?

The labor and each part as separate lines, with the equipment named.

What should a pool service estimate leave out?

Say it in the notes: leaks, electrical work, and anything beyond the routine service.

How long should the price hold?

Put a date on it. The estimate maker lets you set how long the price holds.
