What a clean quote looks like.

An annotated example of a quotation from a UK decorating subcontractor: the version a QS or PM signs off without an RFI round, instead of bouncing it back with seven clarifying questions. Free, ungated past your name and email. No mailing list.

What's inside

Thirteen sections. Six pages. No fluff.

Header anatomy: the seven cells the QS checks first
Scope of works, organised by trade package phase
The pricing table: four cells per line, and the traps in each
Exclusions named on the cover, not buried at line 47
Assumptions made visible so they can be challenged before mobilisation
Quote validity period: a real expiry, normally 30 days
Payment terms and lead time, in numbers
Eight common quote errors and the discipline to avoid them
The supporting pack: insurance, accreditations, comparable scheme, RAMS readiness
A plain language appendix for the spec writers
