Choose the market and service
Start with the job type, quantity and New Zealand location, then note the finish, access and site conditions.
New Zealand tradie quoting
Build itemised job quotes in New Zealand dollars.
JobPrice helps New Zealand tradies and service businesses turn a rough brief into a structured pricing draft. Use local labour and supplier costs, then make freight, travel, GST, consent and scope assumptions visible before the quote reaches the customer.
Estimate, quote or proposal?
Customers need to know what is firm, what is provisional and what could change after inspection. Clear allowances and a written variation process protect the relationship better than a single total with no explanation.
What changes the price locally
- Local labour and subcontractor availability
- Materials, freight and inter-island delivery
- Urban, rural and remote travel time
- Access, weather and site conditions
- GST treatment and tax-inclusive pricing
- Consent, licensing and inspection requirements
What to include in the customer quote

- GST, deposits, stage claims and payment timing
- Schedule assumptions and quote validity

Frequently asked questions
Can JobPrice show GST on New Zealand quotes?
Yes. Set the percentage used in the document and confirm whether your displayed prices and total should be GST inclusive or exclusive.
Can freight and travel be separate line items?
Yes. Add or edit line items for freight, mileage, ferry costs, accommodation, remote-area travel or any other job-specific allowance.
Does JobPrice know whether building consent is required?
No. Consent, licensing and inspection requirements must be checked for the particular work and location before the quote is finalized.
