About the template
What this computer repair quote template covers and why customers accept
Computer repair quotes lose work when 'fix from $ X' is the only line. The template below shows the diagnostic fee, the parts by brand (SSD, RAM, battery, screen), labour by the hour, data backup before invasive work, and software re-install if needed.
Data backup is often the most important line and losing customer data destroys reputation. Quoting it upfront makes the value visible and protects you on liability.
What to include
Every computer repair quote should have these lines
Use it as a checklist when you build your quote from scratch, or pull the QuoteGenio template that already has them.

Avoid these
Common mistakes on computer repair quotes
The patterns that quietly lose jobs, get queried at payment time, or leave money on the table.
Mistake: Parts not stated as OEM vs aftermarket
Better: OEM screens and batteries differ massively in colour, quality, and warranty. Always name the source.
Mistake: Data backup not on quote
Better: Always quote backup before invasive work. Lost data is reputation-destroying.
Mistake: Diagnostic policy missing
Better: State 'diagnostic fee applied against repair if proceeded'. Standard and prevents free-diagnostic abuse.
Mistake: Labour bundled with parts
Better: Parts and labour are separate cost categories. Customer matches against alternatives quickly.
Mistake: Warranty not stated
Better: 12-month workmanship + manufacturer warranty on parts. State on every quote.
Mistake: Re-install bundled into labour
Better: macOS / Windows re-install is 1-2 hours separate work plus the OS licence. Itemise.
