How QuoteMate Helps Electricians
See It in Action
“Install 10x LED downlights in open-plan living area with dimmer switch”
A complete, itemised quote with materials, quantities, real-time supplier pricing, labour costs, GST, and a professional PDF — ready to send to your client. Typical electrical quotes range from $300 – $15,000.
Electrical quoting in Australia carries more compliance weight than any other trade. Every job — from a single power point to a full switchboard upgrade — has to meet AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules, requires a Certificate of Electrical Safety, and depends on the licensing tier of the contractor. Underquote the cable run, miss a safety switch, or forget the permit fee and the margin disappears. QuoteMate is built for licensed Australian electricians who want to quote faster without skipping the line items that protect both the customer and the trade.
What goes into a complete electrical quote
A complete electrical quote covers more than the visible work. Cable type and length (TPS, neutral screen, conduit), termination boxes, GPOs, RCDs, MCBs, isolators, escutcheons, lugs, and the labour to comply with separation requirements all need pricing. For larger jobs — switchboard upgrades, mains upgrades, EV chargers — you also need to capture the network supply authority application, an electrical contractor license number on the quote, and the Certificate of Electrical Safety lodgement. QuoteMate prompts you for each of these so nothing gets missed before the PDF goes out.
Common pricing pitfalls electricians miss
The three line items most often forgotten on Australian electrical quotes are: hole cutting and patching for downlights and GPOs in plaster, isolators required between switchboards and high-load appliances like ovens and split systems, and the surcharge for after-hours or live-board work that requires power isolation across multiple circuits. QuoteMate's AI flags these automatically based on the job description. For commercial work, the tool also captures access fees, scaffold hire, and the testing and tagging certificate that's billable but rarely quoted.
