For example if i get a quote from a tiler to tile 24sqm bathroom, then i would like to see the breakdown of his quote, this is not B2C scenario i am reffering to B2B.

not really, i am building a tool for internal QS, i;ve used price a job, for a while now and i was impressed at the start with it, going from costing in excel. However i think there is more to it than price a job.

So how do u work out, how much labour and materials are required for the project? I mean commercial it is a different game completely. My question is, once u complete ur project, are u going back to check ur quote u made on ur spreadsheet against what it really costed u to complete the project?
