Free Job Profitability Calculator | Bricked Bookkeeping

You got paid. Do you actually know if you made money?

A free job profitability calculator built for Alberta trades contractors. Plug in one job's numbers and see your real margin, not your guess.

Free Excel download. No spreadsheet skills required.

SAMPLE JOB — SMITH RESIDENCE REWIRE
Contract Revenue$18,500
Materials + Labor$8,600
Subs + Equipment$600
Overhead Allocation$1,850
Net Profit$7,200 · 38.9%

Every contractor knows this feeling.

The job wrapped. The invoice cleared. The truck's already loaded for the next one. But nobody ever tells you what you actually made once materials, labor, subs, and the stuff that never shows up on a receipt all got counted.

Most contractors know their revenue. Almost none know their real margin, job by job. That gap is where profit quietly disappears, one project at a time.

What's inside the calculator

One Excel file. Enter your numbers in the blue cells, and the rest calculates itself.

Job-by-job cost breakdown

Materials, labor, subcontractors, equipment, and permits — tracked separately for every job you enter.

Automatic overhead allocation

A fair share of your rent, insurance, and admin costs gets applied to each job, so your margin reflects the whole business, not just the job site.

Gross and net margin, calculated for you

No formulas to build. Type in your costs and your real profit percentage appears instantly.

A dashboard that shows your best and worst jobs

See which jobs actually made you money and which ones quietly cost you, at a glance.
