Job quote: questions people ask

What happens if the job turns out bigger than quoted?

Stop and agree on the extra work in writing before doing it. A short change order works well.

Should I take a deposit?

For jobs with special-order materials, many trades collect a deposit at signing. Record it with the deposit receipt.

Is a fixed-price quote the same as a contract?

A signed quote with a clear scope and price is often treated as an agreement. For larger work use a full service agreement. This is not legal advice.

How is this different from the estimate template?

This quote commits to a fixed price for a small, defined job. The estimate shows an expected price that may vary within a stated range.
