The problem with manual quoting for joiners

Sound familiar?

🪚

Bespoke item pricing complexity

Every bespoke joinery piece is different. Pricing a staircase, a run of windows, or fitted furniture requires estimating machining time, assembly, timber wastage, and fitting — all of which vary by design.

🌲

Timber species and grade selection

Softwood, hardwood, and engineered timber all have different costs, lead times, and performance characteristics. Quoting the wrong specification loses work on price or creates problems on site.

🏭

Workshop vs site labour split

Joinery quotes need to separate workshop fabrication time from site fitting time — these are priced differently and often involve different teams.

🎨

Finish and treatment costs

Primer, undercoat, paint, varnish, or oil finishes all add cost and time. Omitting finish from a joinery quote creates disputes when clients assume it's included.

What the quoting software does for joiners

Built specifically for joiner quoting — not a generic tool.

Bespoke joinery scoping

Describe the piece — staircase, window frame, fitted wardrobe, alcove unit — and the AI identifies the key components, timber requirement, machining, and fitting labour.

Timber species pricing

Softwood, hardwood, MDF, and engineered board options are priced separately, with appropriate machining and waste uplifts for each material.

Workshop and site labour split

Joinery quotes break out workshop fabrication time and site fitting time separately — keeping your costing accurate and transparent for larger projects.

Staircase quoting

Full staircase quotes cover strings, treads, risers, newels, balusters, handrail, and spindles — with options for softwood painted or hardwood oiled finishes.

Window and door frame scoping

Quote softwood or hardwood window and door frames including rebates, weatherstripping, ironmongery, and glazing allowances.

Professional PDF output

Send professional joinery quotes and proposals as branded PDFs directly from the app.
