Lever turns a plain-English job description into a structured quote — line items, quantities, and pricing — in seconds. The quality of what comes back tracks the detail you put in. Here’s how to get a great draft and make it yours.
Write a description that lands
You don’t need to write it formally — say it the way you’d tell a customer on site. The details that move the price are the ones worth including:
- What the work is — the trade and the task.
- Size or quantity — square footage, number of units, gallons.
- Materials — anything you’ll supply or that’s premium.
- Time — a half day, two days, a rough sense of effort.
- Extras — haul-away, disposal, access issues.
Shape the line items
Read the draft
You’ll get a quote broken into line items with prices. Read it top to bottom — it’s a professional starting point, and it’s fully yours to change.
