Run water, check pressure, look for corrosion, test drains. For water heaters: note the age, fuel type, and capacity. For remodels: map existing pipe runs and identify access points.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#fff;border-radius:12px;padding:32px;margin-bottom:16px;display:flex;gap:24px;align-items:flex-start\">\n<div style=\"width:48px;height:48px;min-width:48px;background:#2563eb;color:#fff;border-radius:50%;display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center;font-size:20px;font-weight:700\">2<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:20px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 8px 0;color:#0f172a\">Step 2: List Materials and Fixtures<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.6;margin:0\">Spec every part: pipe type (copper, PEX, PVC), fixture brands, valve types, and fittings. For a water heater swap: tank, expansion tank, pressure relief valve, connectors, venting, and gas\/water lines. Use supplier pricing as your baseline.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#fff;border-radius:12px;padding:32px;margin-bottom:16px;display:flex;gap:24px;align-items:flex-start\">\n<div style=\"width:48px;height:48px;min-width:48px;background:#2563eb;color:#fff;border-radius:50%;display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center;font-size:20px;font-weight:700\">3<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:20px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 8px 0;color:#0f172a\">Step 3: Calculate Your Labor<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.6;margin:0\">Plumbing labor runs $75-$150\/hr. A water heater install takes 4-6 hours. A bathroom rough-in takes 2-3 days. Factor in complexity. Old homes with galvanized pipe add 30-50% more time. Price experience, not just hours.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#fff;border-radius:12px;padding:32px;margin-bottom:16px;display:flex;gap:24px;align-items:flex-start\">\n<div style=\"width:48px;height:48px;min-width:48px;background:#2563eb;color:#fff;border-radius:50%;display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center;font-size:20px;font-weight:700\">4<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:20px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 8px 0;color:#0f172a\">Step 4: Add Permits and Markup<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.6;margin:0\">Most plumbing work requires permits ($100-$400). Apply your markup (25-35% is standard). On a $3,500 job, 25% markup is $875. Include warranty terms and note that permits protect the homeowner&#8217;s insurance coverage.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#fff;border-radius:12px;padding:32px;margin-bottom:0;display:flex;gap:24px;align-items:flex-start\">\n<div style=\"width:48px;height:48px;min-width:48px;background:#2563eb;color:#fff;border-radius:50%;display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center;font-size:20px;font-weight:700\">5<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:20px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 8px 0;color:#0f172a\">Step 5: Send It and Follow Up<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.6;margin:0\">Export a clean PDF and send it same day if possible. Plumbing emergencies move fast. The first professional estimate that arrives usually wins.

Clients trust itemized estimates. &#8216;Miscellaneous parts: $500&#8242; looks suspicious. &#8217;12 PEX fittings at $4.50 each&#8217; looks professional.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#fff;border-radius:12px;padding:32px\">\n<div style=\"font-size:32px;font-weight:800;color:#2563eb;margin-bottom:12px\">3<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 8px 0;color:#0f172a\">Include a diagnostic fee<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:14px;color:#64748b;line-height:1.6;margin:0\">Charge $75-$150 for diagnostic visits and credit it toward the job. Filters out tire-kickers and values your expertise. Most serious clients expect to pay for a professional assessment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#fff;border-radius:12px;padding:32px\">\n<div style=\"font-size:32px;font-weight:800;color:#2563eb;margin-bottom:12px\">4<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 8px 0;color:#0f172a\">Photo-document existing conditions<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:14px;color:#64748b;line-height:1.6;margin:0\">Corroded pipes, water damage, improper previous work.

Show the cost difference and explain the reliability tradeoff. Clients appreciate the honesty, and replacement tickets are 3-5x higher.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#fff;border-radius:12px;padding:32px\">\n<div style=\"font-size:32px;font-weight:800;color:#2563eb;margin-bottom:12px\">6<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 8px 0;color:#0f172a\">Factor in permit and inspection time<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:14px;color:#64748b;line-height:1.6;margin:0\">Permits add 1-3 days to the timeline and $100-$400 to the cost. Build it into your estimate upfront rather than surprising the client later. Permitted work also protects your license.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section style=\"padding:80px 120px;background:#fff;text-align:center;box-sizing:border-box;width:100%\">\n<h2 style=\"font-size:36px;font-weight:800;margin:0 0 40px 0;color:#0f172a\">Estimate Template vs. Estimating Software<\/h2>\n<div style=\"display:flex;gap:32px;justify-content:center;max-width:900px;margin:0 auto\">\n<div style=\"flex:1;border-radius:16px;padding:40px 32px;text-align:left;background:#f8fafc;border:1px solid #e2e8f0\">\n      <span style=\"display:inline-block;padding:4px 12px;border-radius:20px;font-size:11px;font-weight:600;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:1px;background:#f1f5f9;color:#64748b;margin-bottom:12px\">Free Template<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:24px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 16px 0;color:#0f172a\">Free<\/h3>\n<ul style=\"list-style:none;padding:0;margin:16px 0\">\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#334155\">&#10003; Pre-filled line items<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#334155\">&#10003; PDF, Excel, Google Sheets<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#334155\">&#10003; Print or email to clients<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#334155\">&#10003; Manual updates required<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#334155\">&#10003; No cost database<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<div style=\"flex:1;border-radius:16px;padding:40px 32px;text-align:left;background:#0f172a;color:#fff\">\n      <span style=\"display:inline-block;padding:4px 12px;border-radius:20px;font-size:11px;font-weight:600;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:1px;background:#22c55e;color:#fff;margin-bottom:12px\">Free to Try<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:24px;font-weight:700;margin:0 0 16px 0;color:#fff\">SimplyWise App<\/h3>\n<ul style=\"list-style:none;padding:0;margin:16px 0\">\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#cbd5e1\">&#10003; Photo-to-estimate in 6 seconds<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#cbd5e1\">&#10003; Live material pricing by ZIP code<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#cbd5e1\">&#10003; Professional PDF estimates + invoices<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#cbd5e1\">&#10003; Send directly to clients<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding:6px 0;font-size:14px;color:#cbd5e1\">&#10003; Track all your estimates<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>      <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/simplywise-cost-estimator\/id6670619664\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2563eb;color:#fff;padding:14px 28px;border-radius:8px;font-size:15px;font-weight:700;margin-top:16px;text-decoration:none\">Try SimplyWise Free &rarr;<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section style=\"padding:80px 120px;background:#fff;box-sizing:border-box;width:100%\">\n<h2 style=\"font-size:36px;font-weight:800;margin:0 0 40px 0;text-align:center;color:#0f172a\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<div style=\"max-width:800px;margin:0 auto\">\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;padding:20px 0\">\n<div class=\"sw-fq\" style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:600;cursor:pointer;color:#0f172a\">What&#8217;s the difference between an estimate and a quote?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#64748b;line-height:1.7;padding-top:12px;display:none\">An estimate is an approximation based on your initial assessment. A quote is a fixed price. Most plumbers provide estimates after a diagnostic visit, then firm up the quote once they&#8217;ve fully scoped the work and checked parts availability.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;padding:20px 0\">\n<div class=\"sw-fq\" style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:600;cursor:pointer;color:#0f172a\">How long should a plumbing estimate take to prepare?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#64748b;line-height:1.7;padding-top:12px;display:none\">A standard residential estimate takes 30-60 minutes for the site visit plus 15-30 minutes to write up. For complex jobs (repiping, remodels), allow 1-2 hours for a detailed assessment. Speed matters. Send within 24 hours.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;padding:20px 0\">\n<div class=\"sw-fq\" style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:600;cursor:pointer;color:#0f172a\">Should I charge for plumbing estimates?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#64748b;line-height:1.7;padding-top:12px;display:none\">Yes, charge a diagnostic fee ($75-$150) and credit it toward the job. Free estimates attract price-shoppers. A small fee signals professionalism and filters for serious clients who value quality.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;padding:20px 0\">\n<div class=\"sw-fq\" style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:600;cursor:pointer;color:#0f172a\">What keeps you ahead of other plumbing contractors?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#64748b;line-height:1.7;padding-top:12px;display:none\">Detailed, professional estimates with photos and clear scope.
