How This Automation Works
Customer submits flooring inquiry with room measurements → Professional quote generated and delivered to customer
Capture Customer Quote Request
Customer submits flooring project details through your website form, email inquiry, or during a phone consultation that's logged in your CRM. The system captures room dimensions, flooring type preferences, current floor condition, installation location, and desired timeline.
Calculate Square Footage and Material Needs
The system automatically calculates total square footage from provided dimensions, applies appropriate waste factors based on flooring type (10% for planks, 15% for tiles with patterns), determines transition pieces needed, and calculates underlayment or preparation materials required.
Retrieve Current Pricing and Apply Rates
Material costs are pulled from your current price database or supplier feeds, labor rates are applied based on flooring type and installation complexity, preparation work costs are added if needed, and your profit margins are automatically calculated and included in the total.
Generate and Format Professional Quote
A polished PDF quote is created with your company branding, including itemized material costs, labor breakdown, preparation work if applicable, subtotals and taxes, payment terms, project timeline estimate, and warranty information. The quote includes clear line items so customers understand all costs.
Deliver Quote and Track Response
The completed quote is automatically emailed to the customer with a personalized message and clear next steps for approval. The system logs the quote in your CRM, sets a follow-up reminder for 3-5 days if no response, and tracks whether the customer opens the email and views the quote document.
How It Works
Transform your flooring quote process with intelligent automation that converts customer requests into detailed, professional estimates. This system automatically calculates material quantities, labor costs, and project timelines based on room dimensions, flooring type selections, and installation complexity. When a customer submits measurements or schedules a consultation, the system pulls current material pricing, applies your profit margins, includes relevant installation factors, and generates a polished quote with line-item breakdowns. Perfect for residential and commercial flooring contractors who want to respond to inquiries faster, reduce estimation errors, and close more deals with professional, timely quotes.
The Trigger
The automation activates when a potential customer fills out a quote request form with project details including room dimensions, flooring type preferences (hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile, carpet), current flooring condition, and project timeline. This can also trigger from CRM entries, email inquiries, or consultation scheduling.
The Action
The system calculates total square footage, determines material quantities with waste factors, retrieves current pricing from your inventory or supplier databases, applies labor rates based on installation complexity, adds relevant preparation work costs, and generates a detailed PDF quote. The quote is automatically emailed to the customer with payment terms, project timeline, and next steps for approval.
