The Job Calculator App is the store page. Google Play and the App Store links live there. This page does not replace them.
Before you download
What a job bidding app should do for contractors
Price the job while you are still in the driveway. A useful phone app keeps labor, materials, and markup together, then turns a yes into an invoice. This page is the checklist. The download stays on the Trade Wins Job Calculator App.
The written bid steps stay on the bid walkthrough. Printed plumbing and HVAC files stay on the price book pages. If you are still comparing a quoting tool with finished files, use the software guide. When this list is enough, open the app.
Right page, right job
This is a checklist, not the store
Keep the download, the bid steps, and the printed files on their own pages so this one can stay a buying list.
Want the bid steps
The bid walkthrough covers labor, materials, markup, and how a cleaner bid comes together. Stay there when you want the inputs, not a buying list.
Want finished files
Use the Plumbing Price Book or the HVAC Price Book when you need the $299 catalogs behind the numbers.
What it should cover
The work a phone bidding tool should handle
If a piece is missing, the tech writes the price in the truck and the office rebuilds it later. That is the problem the app is supposed to shrink.
The job, while you are still there
Address, system, and what the customer actually asked for. Capture it before you drive away and try to reconstruct the call from memory.
Labor and materials you can explain
Hours, helper time, parts, markup, discounts, and after-hours adders. A blank total is not a bid.
A scope the homeowner can follow
What is included, what changes the price, and what you are not doing. A number without a sentence does not survive the kitchen-table question.
A yes that becomes an invoice
The approved bid should not be retyped into a different tool. The same job should be able to leave as a professional invoice.
Light enough for a service call
Plumbing and HVAC shops that do not want a monthly desk system still need bids and invoices from the phone. Dispatch and scheduling are a different product.
The catalog stays a catalog
The app applies the price on the call. The finished plumbing or HVAC book is still where the task prices live.
What to skip
Leave these jobs on their own pages
A bidding app is not a CRM, not a printed price book, and not a free spreadsheet. This page does not invent a calculator file.
Do not expect a full CRM
Dispatching, scheduling, and customer history belong somewhere else. The Trade Wins app stays a bid and invoice tool.
Do not treat the app as the book
Finished task prices, parts lists, and training live on the plumbing and HVAC book pages.
Do not look for a sample file here
There is no spreadsheet or calculator download on this page. Compare tools and files on the software guide, then use the app page for the store.
Next step
You know what it should do. The download is on the app page.
The checklist stays here. If you are still choosing between a quoting tool and finished files, use the software guide first.
Open the Job Calculator App
Field bids, markups, and invoices on iOS and Android, without a monthly CRM. That page is the store. If you want help after the books are in place, see Trade Wins services.

Questions about this checklist
Is this where I download the app?
No. This page is the checklist. The Trade Wins Job Calculator App for iOS and Android is on the app page, with Google Play and the App Store.
How is this different from the bid walkthrough?
The walkthrough covers the inputs behind a bid: labor, materials, markup, and scope. This page is the buying checklist for what the phone tool should be able to do before you install it.
Do I still need a plumbing or HVAC price book?
Yes, if you want finished pricing files. The app helps you bid and invoice from the phone. The plumbing and HVAC books are the catalogs behind those numbers.
Is this a CRM?
No. It is a lightweight bid and invoice tool. It does not replace dispatching, scheduling, or customer history.
The checklist is here. The download is on the app page.
