Stop guessing. Start making money on every job.
You quote a job, the customer says yes, and somewhere between sourcing parts and finishing the work, your profit vanishes. Maybe you underpriced the labour. Maybe you forgot to mark up the parts properly. Maybe that ‘quick fix’ turned into two hours of your time you’ll never get back.
It’s not because you’re bad at your job. You’re brilliant at fixing cars. But working out what to charge? That’s a different skill entirely — and most garages have never been taught how to do it properly.
The Garage Pricing Calculator is a simple Excel spreadsheet that does the maths for you. Pop in your parts costs and labour hours, and it spits out a quote that actually covers your costs — with profit built in.
Here’s what’s working behind the scenes:
| Tiered parts markup | Parts under £50 get a 60% markup. £50-150 gets 40%. £150-500 gets 30%. Over £500 gets 15%. This isn’t profit — it’s covering your time sourcing, handling returns, and carrying the risk. |
| Labour calculation | Enter your hourly rate once, then just plug in the hours. The tool handles the rest. |
| 10% risk buffer | Every quote includes a built-in buffer for warranty work, comebacks, and those jobs that run over. No more absorbing unexpected costs. |
| VAT calculation | Automatically adds VAT at 20% so you’re quoting the right figure from the start. |
This is built for independent garages and mobile mechanics who want to stop leaving money on the table. If you’ve ever finished a job and thought ‘that wasn’t worth it’ — this is for you.
No formulas to fiddle with. No guesswork. Just a price that works.
