Example: Sealcoating and crack repair for a small office lot
A dentist's office wants the parking lot to look fresh: cracks sealed, a full sealcoat and new stall lines.
| Crack sealing (per ft) × 300 | $600 |
| Sealcoating (per sq ft) × 8000 | $2,400 |
| Line striping (per stall) × 24 | $360 |
| Total | $3,360 |
| Deposit to start (25%) | $840 |
Schedule on a dry weekend from the forecast, send the estimate to the office manager, and invoice when the lines are painted.

Put the drying time in the notes so the office can plan.
