Components overview

Components are the building blocks of every landscaping quote. Each one bundles a measurement method, material price, labor price, waste, and slope settings so you can drop it into a quote and let QuoteCore+ work out the quantities.

What can be a component?

Anything you price more than once on a job:

• Turf or lawn (area)
• Paving and patio slabs (area)
• Decking boards (area) with joists and bearers (lineal)
• Retaining wall blocks or sleepers (wall length × height)
• Mulch, topsoil, aggregate, sand (volume)
• Garden edging, kerbing (lineal)
• Plants, trees, shrubs (count)
• Irrigation runs (lineal) and emitters (count)
• Fixed-price items like soft landscaping packages or fees
• Hourly or day-rate labor (machine hire, ground crew)

Why components matter

Set them up once with the right pricing, waste, and slope settings — then every quote that uses them inherits those numbers. Change the price in one place and your next quote picks it up automatically. No more digging through old spreadsheets to remember what you charged last time.

Extras vs Main components

Main components are the work you're quoting — turf, paving, walls, plants. They're tied to an area and counted toward the job's measured total.

Extras are line items you want priced and shown but kept separate — site visit fees, skip hire, dump runs, design fees. They appear in the quote total but not in the measured area breakdown.
