About MarginJob

Why MarginJob exists and who its contractor pricing calculators are built for.

Practical pricing tools for small crews

MarginJob is a focused collection of browser-based estimating tools for contractors, tradespeople, and small service businesses. It is designed to make the relationship between cost, price, profit, margin, and labor burden easier to see before a quote is sent.

What MarginJob does

  • Turns user-entered job costs into transparent planning estimates.
  • Shows formulas, worked examples, limitations, and source starting points.
  • Keeps calculator entries in the browser and does not require an account.
  • Provides field-ready spreadsheets and printable references without an email gate.

How to use the site

Begin with labor burden, assemble complete job cost, convert that cost to a target-margin price, and document changed work separately. The guides explain each step so the result is not an unexplained number.

What MarginJob does not do

MarginJob does not replace accounting, tax, legal, insurance, payroll, or contract advice. Rates and obligations vary by business, employee, project, and location. Users remain responsible for checking inputs, governing documents, and final quotes.
