Electrical quoting software for electricians and installers

It is software that turns a counted job into a quote the customer can accept: devices, circuits and metres as priced lines, materials and labour separated, permits and inspection included, exclusions written down, and a signature at the end. ExtraflowDoc does that from the deal the service call already created, so the quote starts from the address and the notes you took rather than a blank page.

No. ExtraflowDoc performs no load calculation, no demand factors, no voltage drop or conductor sizing, no fault current calculation and no circuit design. It picks up once you already know what you are installing: counting it, pricing it, presenting it and getting it signed. Your design stays where it is today — in your head, in a spreadsheet or in the calculation package you already own.

No, and this is the point worth being clearest about. It does not generate certificates of inspection or test reports, does not record measurement results, does not file permits with any authority having jurisdiction, and does not track your licences or registrations. It is commercial document software: it prices inspection and commissioning as quote lines, and your own filings and reports stay where they are.

No. There is no supply house connection, so your buying prices do not refresh themselves overnight. What you get instead is a catalogue you control: your own devices and cable with your real buying price and your selling price, searchable while you build the quote. Prices that are yours rather than a feed's, with the upkeep that implies.

No. There is no built-in library of labour units or pre-priced assemblies — nothing that tells you a duplex receptacle takes 0.4 hours. You bring your own rates, per device or per hour, and the software does the arithmetic on them. If a published price book is what you are after, that is a different product category and this is not it.

Yes, and it is the normal way to build a quote here. Every line carries its own quantity, unit and rate, so twenty-two pot lights, nine duplex receptacles and four circuits each sit on their own line and total themselves. You can mix that freely with day-rate lines and lump-sum lines in the same document, which is what most real electrical quotes are.

Yes. Put two or three pricing tables side by side in the same document, each with its own lines and total. The customer picks a scope rather than picking the contractor on price alone, and you stop writing the same job out three times every time somebody asks what the bigger version would cost.

Yes, and in this trade they earn their place. An allowance line covers what you cannot see until the drywall is off, and a text block lists what you have not allowed for — patching, painting, asbestos, a panel location that turns out to be unworkable. Both are ordinary editor blocks, and both turn a surprise into priced change work.

Yes. Lines carry their own images, and full-width gallery blocks with captions sit beside the price. A photo of the old fuse panel you found, next to the line replacing it, justifies the number better than another paragraph of features — and it is also the evidence of how it stood before you touched it.

Yes. It runs in the browser on a phone or tablet with nothing to install, so you can change a quantity in front of the customer and ask for the signature before you leave. Signatures carry email verification, a timestamp and an audit trail, and the status changes when the document is opened and signed.

Yes. A won quote becomes an invoice in one click with every line carried across, and the materials lines raise the order for your supply house. The quantities ordered match the ones the customer approved, because they are the same ones — which matters on a job where the margin lives in the materials.

ExtraflowDoc's free plan covers 5 documents a month per company with unlimited users — workable for a one-truck contractor quoting a handful of jobs a month. Paid plans start at $20.69/month for 20 documents, and because billing is per company rather than per user, putting a second electrician on it does not change the price.
