AI Prompts for Trades & Contractors | 50 ChatGPT Prompts for Estimates, Leads, Reviews & Customer Messages — Printable & iPad PDF
The work is the easy part. It's the estimates, follow-ups, review asks, and invoices that eat your evenings. These 50 copy-paste prompts turn any AI assistant into your office help — writing the Google profile that gets you found, turning rough site notes into clean estimates, texting customers like a pro, asking for reviews at exactly the right moment, and keeping the paperwork moving while you're still on the tools.
Written for real trades businesses, not generic AI fluff. Every prompt has fill-in [BRACKETS] for your trade, your town, and the job in front of you — plus a practical tip from the field. Made for plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, roofers, remodelers, handymen, landscapers, and any one-truck or small-crew shop that's tired of doing office work at the kitchen table at 9 p.m.
Inside you'll find six sections: Marketing & Getting Leads (9 prompts); Estimates, Quotes & Proposals (9); Customer Texts & Emails (8); Reviews & Referrals (8); Hiring & Managing the Crew (8); and Invoices, Payments & Paperwork (8).
One rule is printed right in the guide: AI never sets your prices. Every estimate prompt uses [PRICE] placeholders, and the guide tells you plainly to check every number yourself before anything goes to a customer.
