Free Job Quote and Estimate Generator
The free quote & estimate generator for tradespeople and freelancers
QuoteForge is a free, browser-based job quote and estimate generator. Type in your business details, add your line items — labour, materials, call-out, anything — and it builds a clean, professional quote you can print or save as a PDF in seconds. No account, no email, no monthly fee, and nothing you enter ever leaves your device. It works completely offline once the page has loaded.
It was built for the people who lose jobs because a paper scribble or a plain text message looks amateur: electricians, plumbers, joiners, painters and decorators, gardeners, cleaners, mobile mechanics, window fitters, roofers, and freelancers of every kind. A tidy quote that turns up within the hour wins work.
How to make a professional quote in under two minutes
- Add your business. Name and contact details sit at the top of every quote — add a logo with Pro.
- Enter the client and reference. Pick Quote, Estimate or Invoice and set how long the price holds.
- List the work. Description, quantity and unit price per line — totals calculate as you type.
- Handle VAT, discounts and deposits. Add 20% VAT, a custom rate, a percentage or fixed discount, and a deposit to book.
- Print or save as PDF. One click opens your print dialog — choose "Save as PDF" and send it.
Why it beats a spreadsheet or a Word template
A downloaded quote template means fighting with a table, breaking the layout every time you add a row, and re-doing the maths by hand. QuoteForge does the arithmetic for you — subtotal, discount, VAT and deposit all recalculate instantly — and the preview on the right is a pixel-for-pixel match of what prints. No formatting, no formulas, no software to install.
Made for real trades and services
Whether you need an electrician quote template, a builder's estimate, a cleaning quote, a gardening estimate or a freelance project quote, the format is the same clean document trusted clients expect. Save a quote to your browser and restore it later to duplicate it for the next job.
Is QuoteForge really free?
Yes. Building, previewing and printing quotes is free forever with no sign-up. The optional £9 one-off Pro upgrade adds your logo, brand colour, saved item presets and removes the small footer credit line.
Is my data private?
Completely. There is no server and no account. Everything you type stays in your browser — nothing is uploaded anywhere. You can even use it with your Wi-Fi off.
Can I save a quote as a PDF?
Yes — click "Print / Save as PDF" and choose "Save as PDF" as the destination in your browser's print dialog. Only the document prints; the rest of the page is hidden automatically.
Does it handle VAT?
Yes. Add standard 20% UK VAT, set a custom rate, or leave it off entirely. VAT is shown as its own line on the finished quote.
