FAQ

Are these contractor templates really free?

Yes. Download any template as a printable PDF — no email, no signup, no watermark. Use them on real jobs.

Can I edit the templates?

These are printable PDFs designed to be filled in by hand or in any PDF reader. If you’d rather build a quote you can edit, save, and resend digitally, use the free TradeShield quote builder.

What should a contractor invoice include?

At minimum: your business name and license, invoice number, customer details, an itemized list of labor and materials, subtotal, tax, total due, and payment terms (when payment is due and how to pay).

When should I use a change order?

Anytime the customer asks for something outside the original scope — extra outlets, an added fixture, a different material. Price it, get it signed, then do the work. Never the other way around. Full guide here.
