Example: a fence repair quote with sales tax on materials only, valid 30 days
Sample Fence and Deck Repair quotes Pat Example for replacing a damaged section of fence. Document “Quote (estimate)”, number Q-2027-031, dated April 5, 2027, valid until May 5, 2027, unit prices before tax. As this contractor bills it, 8.25% sales tax goes on the materials, and labor and haul-away are entered at 0%.
- Four lines, each with its own tax rate: 12 hours of labor at $65.00, 48 cedar pickets at $4.29, 4 posts at $18.97 and haul-away at $75.00.
- Each line is quantity × unit price. Tax is worked out on the total at each rate and rounded to the cent: $281.80 × 8.25% = $23.25.
- The top of the page shows QUOTE, the number, the total of $1,160.05 incl. tax and “Valid until: May 5, 2027”; the notes say the price holds for 30 days and ask for a 50% deposit.
- When Pat accepts, switch the document to Invoice: the lines stay; add a due date and your payment details.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I turn the quote into an invoice?
- Change the document from Quote to Invoice. The customer, items and prices stay; add a due date and your bank details, and download again.
- How do I say how long the quote stands?
- Fill in the due date: on a quote it is printed as "Valid until", under the amount. Leave it empty to leave it off.
- Can I add my company seal or logo?
- Yes: choose a PNG or JPG and it is placed beside your business’s name. A PNG with a transparent background looks best; the hanko maker on this site makes a seal like that. It is remembered with the rest of the form if it is under about 300 KB.
- Can I charge sales tax on some lines only?
- Yes. Each line has its own tax rate: type the rate on the taxable lines and 0 on the rest. The quote then shows the amount taxable at each rate and the tax on it, here $281.80 at 8.25% and $855.00 at 0%.
- How is the tax rounded?
- To the cent, half up, on the total at each rate rather than line by line: $281.80 at 8.25% is $23.2485, which becomes $23.25. Choose Round down or Round up under “Rounding of tax” if your customer expects that.
- Is what I type uploaded or saved anywhere?
- No. The PDF is made in this page and the form is remembered only in this browser, so next month’s invoice starts filled in. Nothing reaches our servers. With Pro, you can also save several sets — one per customer — and switch between them.
- What does the free plan allow?
- 5 downloads a day, with a small "Made with nouplo.com" line at the foot of the last page, which the preview shows too. Pro removes the line and the limit, and keeps saved settings for each customer.
