Free Business Calculators — Any Trade

5 free tools covering business fundamentals every self-employed contractor needs.

What You Can Work Out

Three questions these free calculators answer in under a minute.

"Am I actually profitable?"

Most contractors track revenue but not real margin. The Job Profit Calculator shows what you actually kept after labor, materials, and overhead — on any job, in under a minute.

📈

"What should I be charging?"

Enter your costs and hours, and see the rate you actually need to charge to hit your income goals — plus how a $10 increase would change your take-home.

📄

"I need to quote this job fast."

The Quote Estimator and Materials Cost calculators let you build a number quickly with the right margin built in — not a guess you'll regret when the job runs long.

What's Inside the Excel Bundle

Health Check tab

See your real number in 60 seconds

Example: a contractor currently charging $50/hr who runs the Health Check often finds their real recommended rate is closer to $66—72/hr once true overhead and a fair profit margin are factored in — using the same calculation the free tools above use.

Quote and Invoice Builder tab

Build a professional quote in 60 seconds

Pricing Audit Checklist tab

12-point audit finds what you're missing

Want to save your numbers and use them on every job?

The free calculators give you instant answers in your browser. The Excel bundles go further: save your inputs, run what-if scenarios, build invoices, and use the same professional system on every job. One price, yours forever.

Simple, one-time pricing

Take Your Numbers Further

Three ways to go further — from an essentials kit to a full Excel system built for your trade. Same maths as the free calculators, with more depth, saved inputs, and professional invoicing. One-time price, yours forever.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before using the calculators or buying a bundle.

No catch. All 55 calculators are free to use, forever. No credit card, no account, no trial period. The free calculators exist because giving contractors useful tools builds trust. The optional Excel bundles are how the site makes money — but you will never be pushed to buy them to use the free tools.
No. Open a calculator, type your numbers, get your answer. No email, no password, no account. The calculators run entirely in your browser — nothing is stored on our servers unless you choose to email yourself your results.
The free calculators give you instant answers in your browser — nothing to download or install. They're perfect for checking a single job or getting a quick number. The Excel bundles go further: you can save your inputs, run multiple what-if scenarios, build client-ready invoices and quotes, and use the same system consistently on every job. Same underlying calculations, more depth and flexibility.
The calculators are optimised for Excel 2016 and later. Google Sheets is compatible for basic use — for the full experience including cell protection and formatting, Excel is recommended.
One-time payment. You download the file and it's yours forever. No monthly fees, no renewal, no license key. If we release an updated version, we will notify you by email — updates are at your discretion, not automatic charges.
Every bundle comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you buy it, use it, and it doesn't deliver value — email us and we will refund you in full, no questions asked. We would rather refund you than have a contractor feel they wasted money.
