Common questions
What others asks before signing up?
How much does a carpenter cost per hour in Australia?
Most Australian carpenters charge between $85 and $130 per hour, depending on the state, the complexity of the work and their experience. This calculator applies an hourly rate to your estimated hours and adds materials to give you an instant estimate for your job.
How much does it cost to build a deck or pergola?
A timber deck typically runs about $200–$450 per m² installed, and a built pergola from roughly $3,000 to $20,000 depending on size and materials. Enter your area and timber choice to see an instant estimate for your project.
How accurate is this carpentry calculator?
It gives a realistic estimate based on current Australian carpenter rates, your job type, hours, materials and finishing. Your carpenter confirms the final price after a site visit and measure.
Does the estimate include GST?
Yes. Every estimate is GST-inclusive at the Australian rate of 10%, so the total you see is the total a homeowner would expect to pay.
Can I add this calculator to my website?
Yes — embed it on WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix or Shopify with a single snippet, or share your free hosted Leadkit estimate page if you don't have a site.
What do I get when someone uses my calculator?
You get the homeowner's name, phone, email and full job scope, plus a branded PDF estimate — a qualified lead you can call back the same day instead of driving out to quote for free.
Is Leadkit really free?
Yes. Free lets you add up to 3 calculators to your website and receive 10 leads per month — no credit card. Every lead beyond the cap is still captured and held for you; upgrading to Pro ($29/mo) opens them all retroactively and removes the cap.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You get an embed code (one line of HTML). Paste it into your website builder — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, or any custom site. That's it.
How accurate are the price estimates?
You configure the calculator formulas to match your actual pricing. Leadkit provides the framework; you set the numbers. Estimates can be as detailed or as rough as you like.
What happens with lead data?
All lead data is stored securely in your workspace. You own it. We never sell or share your leads with anyone.
Can I use Leadkit as an agency for multiple clients?
Yes — our Agency plan lets you create and manage separate workspaces for each of your clients, all from one dashboard.
What's the difference between the plans?
Free: up to 3 calculators, 10 leads/month (over-cap leads held + locked until upgrade). Pro: unlimited leads, unlimited calculators, white-label, branded email sending, analytics, email templates. Agency: everything in Pro plus multi-workspace management.

How it works
How this carpentry estimate is calculated
This calculator produces an estimate, not a binding quote. It applies an Australian carpenter hourly rate to your job hours, then adds timber and materials priced by the job type.
GST handling: All estimates are GST-inclusive at the Australian rate of 10%.
1
Pick the job type
Repairs and framing are led by labour hours; built-ins add timber by the linear metre and decks by the m².
job_type → repairs / built-in / deck / framing
2
Price the labour
Your estimated hours are multiplied by an Australian carpenter hourly rate (typically $85–$130/hr).
labour = hours × rate
3
Add materials
Built-ins use a per-linear-metre supply rate, decks and framing a per-m² rate, then your timber choice (pine, engineered or hardwood) scales the materials.
materials = qty × rate × timber_factor
4
Finish & GST
An optional painting/finishing allowance is added, a minimum job fee is applied, then 10% GST to reach the total.
Real ranges from Australian carpentry and decking cost guides. Your actual price depends on hours, timber choice, access and the state you're in.

Sydney and Melbourne carpenter rates typically sit at the top of these ranges; regional areas often run below. Hardwood and structural work add the most to a job.
