What goes on a lawn mowing quote
The usual line items. The AI picks the ones your job needs, and you can add or remove any.

- Clippings removal
- Hedge trimming (optional)
- Weed spraying (optional)
- Green waste dump fee
Tips for lawn mowing quotes that win the job
- Quote per visit and say how often. Regular clients want to know the price before they agree to a season.
- Add the first-visit catch-up for long grass as a separate line.
- Offer the extras (hedges, spraying) as options so the client can upsell themselves.
Example job description
Fortnightly lawn mowing for a 600m² section in Papakura, front and back, edges trimmed, clippings taken away. Spring to autumn.
The more you say (size, location, who supplies what, how long it takes), the better the draft. Anything you leave out goes into the assumptions, so the customer can see it.
Questions
- Is a quote a fixed price?
- A quote is generally a fixed price for the work it describes, while an estimate is your best guess. If the job changes, agree the change in writing. This is why Sorted Quote lists assumptions and exclusions on every quote.
- Do I have to charge GST?
- You must register for GST once your turnover will be more than $60,000 in 12 months. If you are registered, show the total including GST on quotes to homeowners. Untick "GST registered" if you aren't.
- Does the AI set my prices?
- No. It drafts the scope, line items, assumptions and exclusions. You type in your own rates, and the GST and totals are worked out exactly in your browser.
- Is it free?
- Yes. No sign-up, no card. Your business details are saved on your device, not on our servers.
