Components overview

Components are the building blocks of every concrete quote. Each one carries the material price, pack size, labor rate, and waste settings so you don't rebuild the maths every job. Build the library once, then quote from it forever.

What can be a component?

• Concrete pour (volume - the primary concrete measure, m³)
• Reinforcing - rebar mesh sheets (area), bar (lineal)
• Formwork - timber, ply, or proprietary (lineal or area)
• Mesh - SL72, SL82, F62 (area)
• Expansion joints, sawn cuts (lineal)
• Kerb, edge, or perimeter strip (lineal or curved)
• Finishing - trowel, broom, exposed aggregate (area)
• Sealer or curing compound (area)
• Pump hire (fixed)
• Concrete pour day labor (hours / days)
• Excavation and prep (fixed or hours)
• Disposal, allowances (fixed)

Why components matter

Set them up once and every quote after that is faster, more consistent, and harder to get wrong. You update a price once and every new quote uses the new price.

The library scales with the work you do. Concrete jobs range from a small footing to a full driveway or slab, and the same components cover both ends without rebuilding.

Extras vs Main components

Most components are Main (core job items). Extras are a separate bucket for one-off items, items you want recorded but hidden from the customer quote, call-out fees, travel, or anything else that sits outside the main scope of work. See Components vs Extras.

Tier limits

Plan	Components (lifetime)
Trial	10
Starter	10
Growth	15
Professional	25
Pro Plus	50

New accounts are seeded with 8 starter components, so you start at 8 of your cap. Soft-deleted (inactive) components don't count toward the cap.

When you're at the cap, the + Add Component button opens an upgrade modal. Hard-delete components you no longer need to make room, or upgrade your tier.

For the full mechanics, see Tier limits.
