Say what the panel assumption is

Half of electrical overruns come from a panel with no spare spaces or insufficient capacity, discovered after the quote is accepted. Write the assumption on the estimate — 'assumes available capacity and spare breaker spaces' — and price the upgrade separately if it is needed. The customer who reads that line and asks about it is far cheaper to deal with than the one who finds out at invoice time.

This is not estimating software, and that is fine

Full electrical estimating tools price from assemblies and labor-unit databases, which matters on commercial bids with hundreds of devices. For service work, small commercial and residential jobs, you already know what the work costs. What you need is to get that number in front of the customer as a professional document quickly — which is a different problem with a much simpler answer.

Put the licence number on everything

It is a trust signal and in many jurisdictions a legal requirement on written estimates. It costs one line and it separates you from the unlicensed competition the customer is also getting quotes from.
