Job profit calculator
Knowing your margin on every job is the difference between a business that grows and one that just stays busy. It's easy to look at a £200 invoice and feel good about it — until you subtract the materials, the two hours you spent driving there and back, and what your own time is actually worth.
As a rule of thumb, a healthy trade or cleaning job should sit above a 20% profit margin. Below that and you're absorbing the cost of anything going wrong: a return visit, a parking ticket, a job that overruns by an hour.
Put a job's numbers in below and you'll get the real profit in pounds and as a percentage, with a flag on anything drifting under that 20% line so you can adjust your pricing before you quote the next one.
