Follow-up emails
Contractor quote follow-up email template
Homeowners sit on quotes. Life gets busy, and your estimate slides down the inbox. A short, friendly follow-up often turns a maybe into a yes, and it shows you are organized.
When to use it
Use it three to five days after you send a written estimate for a remodel, repair, or install and have not heard back.
Copy and paste
Subject: Following up on your estimate for [Project] Hi [Name], I wanted to check in on the estimate I sent for [Project] on [Date]. I know a decision like this takes some thought, so no rush at all. If anything in the quote was unclear, or if you want to talk through options to fit a different budget, I am happy to walk through it with you. My schedule for [month or timeframe] is starting to fill in, so if you would like to hold a spot, just let me know and I will pencil you in. Thanks again for the chance to bid on this, [Your Name] [Business] [Phone]
Tips
- Reference the specific project and date so it does not read like a mass email.
- Offer to adjust the scope or budget. That invites a reply from people on the fence.
- A gentle note about your calendar filling up creates real, honest urgency.
- Keep it to one screen. Long follow-ups get skimmed and skipped.
