When to use and what to include

Build and revise pricing online, then generate a client-ready quote PDF. Use this after diagnosing the appliance on-site when the customer asks for written pricing before authorizing the repair.

What to include

  • Customer name, property address, appliance type, make, model number, and serial number (found on the rating plate inside the door, behind the unit, or on the back panel).
  • Diagnosis summary: customer-reported symptom, diagnostic steps performed, error or fault codes retrieved (e.g., Samsung washer error code UE, GE refrigerator code 0006), root cause identified, and component(s) that need replacement.
  • Parts list with the verified manufacturer or compatible part number, description, quantity, source, cost, stated markup, availability, and applicable parts warranty.
  • Labor cost: diagnostic fee (state whether it applies toward repair), estimated repair time in hours, hourly labor rate, and total labor charge.
  • Total repair cost, any documented repair-versus-replacement considerations, the parts and labor warranty period actually offered, and the quote validity date.

Common questions

Can I build and revise this Appliance Repair Quote / Estimate online before sending it?
Yes. Update scope of work, quantities, labor, and totals in your browser, then generate a polished Appliance Repair Quote / Estimate PDF.
Can I save this Appliance Repair Quote / Estimate and reuse it for similar jobs?
Yes. With an account, save the estimate in your history, edit it later, and reuse relevant line items and job details for similar work.
Can I export this Appliance Repair Quote / Estimate with finalized pricing and terms?
Yes. Download a clean PDF with the final scope of work, line items, totals, terms, and customer details ready to send.
Should I list the diagnostic code on the quote?
Yes. Listing error codes (e.g., F01, UE, E5) shows the customer you performed a real diagnosis. It also creates a record if the same issue recurs and helps any future technician understand the repair history.
How do I justify the repair versus replacing the appliance?
Show the diagnosed repair cost, current replacement price if known, appliance age and condition, expected parts availability, and warranty terms. Present any recommendation as an estimate based on those facts rather than a universal age or percentage rule.
Do I need the serial number on the quote?
Yes. The serial number confirms the exact production run, which determines the correct OEM part number. Two appliances with the same model number can use different parts depending on serial range.
How do I make my estimates look professional?
Add your company details, itemized labor and materials, totals, schedule, and terms so the customer can review the full estimate in one PDF.
Should I email or text my estimates?
Download the formatted PDF and send it by email or message so the customer can open, print, and keep the complete job details.
