This template helps you break down every part of the job: materials, labor, R-values, air sealing, and removal if needed. When homeowners see a clear, itemized quote, they trust you more. And trust closes deals.
Whether you’re handling attic insulation, crawl space encapsulation, or a full-home spray foam retrofit, this template keeps your pricing organized and professional. No more scribbling numbers on the back of a business card.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I customize this template for my insulation business?
Add your logo, company name, and contact info at the top. Include your license number and any certifications (BPI, RESNET, etc.). Adjust payment terms to match how you operate, deposit upfront, balance on completion, or progress payments for bigger jobs.
What should I include in an insulation estimate?
Cover the basics: client info, project address, square footage, insulation type, and R-value. Break down material and labor costs separately. Include removal fees if you’re replacing old insulation, plus air sealing, vapor barriers, equipment, permits, and cleanup. Clear estimates prevent surprises later.
How do I calculate insulation materials accurately?
Measure square footage for each area. For blown-in, check the manufacturer’s coverage chart to figure out how many bags you need for your target R-value. For spray foam, calculate board-feet (square footage × inches of thickness). For batts, measure between studs and add 5–10% for waste. Always round up.
How long should my insulation estimate stay valid?
30 days is standard. It gives homeowners time to decide while protecting them from material price swings. For larger jobs or when prices are volatile, consider 14 days. Always put the expiration date on the estimate so there’s no confusion.
Should I include energy savings in my estimate?
It can help close the deal; homeowners like knowing they’ll save money on energy bills. Mention utility rebates and tax credits if they apply. Just don’t promise specific savings numbers. Use ranges and note that actual results depend on the home and usage.
Can I use this for commercial insulation projects?
Yes. The template works for residential and commercial. For bigger jobs, add sections for project phases, safety requirements, and compliance documentation. Include your insurance certificate and any OSHA info the client needs.
What’s the easiest way to turn my estimate into an invoice?
If you’re using FieldCamp, it’s one click. The estimate converts to an invoice automatically, just update quantities if anything changed during the job. No retyping, no errors.
