Quote based on how you build.
Not just what you build.
Your construction methods. Your materials. Your labour costs. BoundaryHub is being developed to turn them into job-specific estimates — with practical materials lists, labour allocations and visible estimated margins, not generic per-metre prices.

There's more to quoting than metres and a rate.
Two jobs can be the same length and height but require different materials, labour, site preparation and construction methods. BoundaryHub is designed to account for the actual work involved.
Less guesswork
Calculate materials and labour from your company's own construction methods and productivity assumptions.
Clearer scope
Work through fence and wall sections, gates, mounting requirements and relevant site conditions.
Visible margins
See the estimated margin on each quote before deciding what to charge.
Materials lists
Get an itemised breakdown of the material types, sizes and quantities required for the quote.
Labour allocations
See time allowances by activity and total estimated crew duration for planning the job.
Faster quoting
Reuse your configured methods instead of calculating the same requirements from scratch.
The estimated job cost drives the pricing decision — not the other way around.

Quote Analysis · Estimated cost & margin
| Commercial summary | Amount |
|---|---|
| Total SELL · inc GST (actual quote) | $9,290.00 |
| Total SELL · ex GST | $8,445.45 |
| Estimated job COST · ex GST (illustrative) | $5,911.82 |

| Estimated gross margin (illustrative) | 30.0% |
How the margin is calculated
(Final SELL − estimated job COST) ÷ Final SELL. The $9,290 selling price comes from the supplied Metafix quote; the cost, gross profit and 30% margin are illustrative figures chosen to demonstrate BoundaryHub's intended pricing view, not actual Metafix job costs.
Quote Summary
*Illustrative, not verified job costing
These are representative concept interfaces, not screenshots of implemented BoundaryHub workflows. All example figures are synthetic; final functionality and calculations remain subject to development and verification. Pricing COST and margin are illustrative; quote totals, materials and labour figures are from the supplied Metafix example.
Your expertise becomes your estimating system.
Many contractors have the know-how in their heads or spread across spreadsheets. BoundaryHub is designed to turn that knowledge into repeatable company configurations that are applied to each quote.
Set up company materials, construction activities, labour costs and productivity assumptions.
Enter fence and wall sections, dimensions, methods and relevant site conditions.
See material requirements, labour allocations and estimated job cost.
Apply company pricing rules and see the estimated margin before issuing the quote.
Not someone else's per-metre formula.
BoundaryHub is intended to understand the connected construction work behind the quote — rather than treat every item as an unrelated line with a quantity and unit price.
- Company-defined methods, not mandatory universal recipes
- Scope-driven materials and task-based labour
- Costs calculated before margin and selling price
- Results useful for purchasing and labour planning
Specialist estimating. Not another CRM.
BoundaryHub is focused on figuring out what a job requires, what it is estimated to cost and what to charge — while complementing the business systems you already use.
Not a job manager
Materials and labour outputs can help you prepare work; BoundaryHub isn't positioned as your scheduling or operations platform.
Not a fixed-rate calculator
Your company defines its methods and cost assumptions rather than relying on universal per-metre rates.
Not just quote formatting
The quote is an output of a construction-based estimate, not merely a list of prices typed into a document.
Would BoundaryHub be worth paying for?
We're exploring whether there is a commercially viable market for purpose-built fencing and retaining wall estimating software in Australia.
We want to understand which estimating problems matter most, what contractors use today and whether the proposed capabilities justify a monthly subscription.
