About the template
What this window installer quote template covers and why it wins more jobs
Window quotes lose work when units are bundled into a flat total. A homeowner replacing 6 windows picks the quote that lists each window by dimension, frame material (aluminium, uPVC, timber), glass spec (single, double, low-E), and the cost to remove and dispose of the existing units.
The template itemises a 6-window replacement: 4 standard openable windows, 2 fixed picture windows, all aluminium-framed with double-glazed Low-E units, plus removal and disposal of the existing single-glazed timber frames.
What to include
Every window installers 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 window installers quotes
The patterns that quietly lose jobs, get queried at payment time, or leave money on the table.
Mistake: Bundling all windows into one total
Better: Itemise each window by dimension and type. Customer can drop windows if budget is tight.
Mistake: Glass spec not named
Better: Single, double, and low-E differ in price and thermal performance. State the spec on every line.
Mistake: Removal and disposal hidden in install
Better: Removing old timber frames is real labour. Quote separately so the customer values it.
Mistake: Make-good plaster missing
Better: Replacement windows always need a small plaster make-good around the frame. Quote it so the customer doesn't expect free patch-up.
Mistake: No deposit clause
Better: 40-50% on acceptance covers the window supply order. Windows are made-to-measure with 2-4 week lead times.
Mistake: Energy compliance certificate not stated
Better: New double-glazed installs trigger energy compliance reporting. State who lodges the certificate (installer or owner).
