Free pest control estimate template, with a termite treatment quoted by the foot

What goes on a pest control estimate
Start with your business details and license numbers, then the customer, the property, an estimate number, the date and a valid-until date. Write down what the inspection found: the pest, the evidence and where. "Subterranean termites, active mud tubes on the garage foundation wall" gives the homeowner something concrete, and it records why the treatment you're proposing is needed.
Then describe the treatment plan. For termites, that's the method, like a liquid barrier, bait stations or both, and how it's measured: linear feet of foundation, plus any slab that has to be drilled. For other jobs it might be rooms treated, number of visits, or devices installed. Spell out the warranty, because it's a big part of what the customer buys: what it covers, how long, and what renewing it costs. Prep the homeowner has to do, like clearing the garage wall or moving mulch, goes on too.
- Business details, company and applicator license numbers
- Property address and the inspection date
- What was found: pest, evidence, location
- Treatment method and how it's measured
- Visits, devices and any follow-up
- Conditions to fix, like wood touching soil
- Warranty: coverage, length and renewal price
- Homeowner prep, deposit, valid-until date and acceptance line
Copy this pest control estimate template
Fill in the brackets after the inspection, in a document or on your phone. Keep the findings line specific. A homeowner comparing three termite quotes will trust the one that names the mud tubes on the garage wall over the one that just says "termite treatment".
For a general pest plan, swap the treatment lines for the plan price and the visit schedule, and keep the warranty and prep lines.

Sample pest control estimate (quote), filled in
Here is the template filled in for a termite job on a single-story house with a slab garage and porch: a liquid barrier around the 180-foot foundation, the 40 feet under the garage slab and porch drilled and treated, 12 monitoring stations in the yard, and the deck stairs lifted off the soil. The company, the customer and the prices are fictional, and tax is charged on the whole subtotal for simplicity, since rules on taxing pest control vary by state.
| Qty | Price | Amount | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Liquid termite barrier: trench and treat the foundation | 140 ft | $6.00 / linear ft | $840.00 |
| Drill and treat through slab at the garage and front porch | 40 ft | $9.00 / linear ft | $360.00 |
| In-ground termite monitoring stations, installed | 12 | $25.00 | $300.00 |
| Break wood-to-soil contact at the deck stairs | 1 | $120.00 | $120.00 |
| Subtotal | $1,620.00 | ||
| Sales tax 6.25% | $101.25 | ||
| Total | $1,721.25 |
The foundation measures 180 linear feet around the outside; 40 feet of it runs under the garage slab and porch, where the treatment goes through drilled holes instead, so the trench line covers the other 140 feet. The per-foot rates cover the termiticide at cost plus a markup and about a day for two technicians. The price includes a one-year retreatment warranty; renewing it after year one is quoted separately, with an annual inspection. The quote is valid for 30 days.
How to price a pest control estimate
Price termite work by the linear foot of foundation, measured around the outside, and add a higher per-foot rate for anything that has to be drilled through concrete. Your rate comes from the termiticide you'll use per foot at your cost and markup, plus the labor: trenching, drilling and patching take real time. Check the label for how much product a foot needs, because that's your material cost and the law.
The warranty is part of the price. A treatment with a year of free retreatment costs you money in callbacks, so build that into the rate, and quote the renewal price on the same estimate so the customer sees the long-term cost. For general pest plans, price the first visit higher than the regular ones, since the first cleanout takes longer. Our estimate vs quote guide explains what to call a price before you've opened the walls.
- Measure the foundation and price termite work by the linear foot
- Charge more per foot for drilling through slab
- Build product use from the label into your rate
- Price the warranty's callbacks into the job
- Quote the renewal price on the same estimate

How do you estimate a termite treatment?
Inspect the house, measure the foundation in linear feet and note any slab that must be drilled. Price the barrier per foot from product and labor, add stations, drilling and repairs, and include the warranty terms and the renewal price.
How is pest control priced for a general plan?
Usually a higher first visit to knock the population down, then a set price per quarterly or monthly visit. Write the visit schedule and what each visit includes on the estimate.
What should a pest control estimate include?
Your business and license details, the property, what the inspection found, the treatment plan and how it's measured, devices, repairs, the warranty and renewal price, homeowner prep, tax, the total and a valid-until date.
How long is a pest control quote good for?
Thirty days is typical. Infestations spread and product prices change, so put a valid-until date on the quote and re-inspect if the customer waits longer.
