Estimate/profit & Loss Sheets
Nathan, I saw you posted some excel documents on another site. Why don't you post them here, you might get better feedback than at the painter's sandbox.

Re: Estimate/profit & Loss Sheets
I was planning on it but ran out of time last night.
The profit sheet could probably be used by anyone but the estimate sheet is paint specific. Heres the post: After reading a "how to estimate" post on another site I started thinking about coming up with some Microsoft Excel files to help in the process of estimating. I came up with a quick estimate sheet here: (really more of a calculator) http://www.contractortalk.com/files/estimate.xls and a quick job profit/loss sheet here: http://www.contractortalk.com/files/profitsheet.xls What are your thoughts and what should I change? *** The numbers listed are not real and are only place holders for your numbers for your business. *** Any feedback would be great!

Re: Estimate/profit & Loss Sheets
I had posted a pretty extensive job costing / estimating sheet somewhere around here. More for the GC side of it but easily modified to fit any business.

Re: Estimate/profit & Loss Sheets
Here you go Bob, let the wacky hijinks ensue.
The sandbox Nathan, I got an awesome estimating spreadsheet a guild member passed out awhile ago. Its for wallpaper, but could be easily changed over to paint. If you'd like to check it out, let me know, Ill email it to you. Its about 170 kb. |
