The Prompt

Copy and paste this
Help me create a flat-rate pricing guide for residential plumbing service. My hourly labor rate is $[rate]. Common jobs I do: [list 8-12 services, e.g., faucet repair, toilet replacement, water heater replacement, drain clearing, wax ring replacement, supply line replacement]. Include estimated parts costs and suggested flat rates for each.

Tips

Review every materials cost against your actual supplier pricing before using — the AI's estimates are reasonable starting points but won't reflect your specific costs. List 8-12 services to get a guide worth printing; fewer than that and it's not worth the setup time.
