Our Cost Estimate Template is built on monday.com Work OS, which means it has capabilities that you won’t always find in other sources for quote templates, like Google Sheets. Document client details, project timings, predicted costs, and automatically calculate labor costs and more to the client.
CRM capabilities Unlike most free construction estimate templates, monday.com won’t leave you stuck with only one functionality of your project — use our template to manage client details and add updates along the way. Custom Status Columns Our Status Column is most-loved because it’s multi-purpose — choose different colors and add custom text to indicate anything from priority and project type to completion stage. Formulas & dashboards Aggregate data from the Dropdown Column and Numbers Columns to make quick calculations that can then be added to a Dashboard view to break down specific data points and trends.
