What to Include on a Concrete Invoice

Put your business name, contractor license number if your state issues one, and contact details at the top. Add the customer's name and billing address, the job site address, the invoice number, the invoice date, and the due date.

Each placement line should name the area, thickness, finish, and reinforcement: "Driveway, 600 sq ft, 4 in. slab, wire mesh, broom finish", not "concrete work". Keep tear-out, base prep, the pump truck, and sealing on separate lines. If you quoted a mix strength (3,000 or 4,000 PSI is common for residential flatwork), repeat it. List any deposit already paid so the balance is plain.

How Concrete Contractors Price a Job

Most residential concrete work is priced one of three ways:

  • Per square foot, installed: the usual method for driveways, patios, sidewalks and garage slabs. The rate covers concrete, forms, reinforcement, finishing and labor, so you do not bill the yards again on top.
  • Materials by the yard plus labor: common for footings and jobs where the quantity is uncertain. Bill cubic yards at delivered cost plus markup, and crew hours separately.
  • Lump sum: one price for a defined scope, such as a foundation. Larger jobs are billed in stages: deposit, after the forms pass inspection, and after the pour.

Typical 2026 US figures to sanity check your lines against:

  • Plain broom-finish flatwork: $6–$12 per sq ft installed
  • Driveways (4–6 in., reinforced): $8–$15 per sq ft
  • Stamped or colored concrete: $12–$20 per sq ft
  • Tear-out and haul-off of old concrete: $2–$6 per sq ft
  • Gravel base and compaction: $1–$2 per sq ft. Rebar or wire mesh: $0.50–$1.50 per sq ft
  • Ready-mix: $150–$200 per cubic yard delivered, plus a short-load fee of $50–$150 on small orders
  • Pump truck: $150–$250/hr, or $500–$1,200 for a typical residential pour
  • Sealing: $1–$3 per sq ft. Finisher labor: $50–$90/hr per finisher
  • Job minimum: $1,000–$2,000, so a small pad still pays for the truck and the crew's morning

To check the yards, multiply the area by the thickness in feet and divide by 27. A 600 sq ft driveway at 4 inches is 600 x 0.333 = 200 cubic feet, or 7.4 yards. Order about 8 to cover waste. The markup calculator turns your cost into a price.

Tips for Getting Paid on Concrete Jobs

  • Take a deposit, within the law. Ready-mix gets ordered and paid for before the truck shows up. A deposit covers it, but some states cap deposits on home improvement work, so check yours before you write the contract.
  • Invoice the day you finish. The slab cures for weeks. Your invoice does not have to wait for it.
  • Write the cracking terms into the quote. Hairline cracks happen even with control joints. Say what your warranty covers and what it does not, so a hairline crack does not become a reason to hold the balance.
  • Price the extras before the pour. Cold weather blankets, extra yards for a soft base: get each one approved as a change order before it lands on the invoice.

Quoting first? Use the contractor estimate template, and check sales tax on labor by state for your state.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should a concrete contractor put on an invoice?

Your business name, license number if your state issues one, and contact details; the customer's name, billing address, and job site address; a unique invoice number, the invoice date, and the due date; each placement with its area, thickness, finish, and reinforcement; tear-out, base prep, pumping, and sealing on separate lines; any approved change orders; the deposit already paid; tax where your state applies it; the balance due; and how to pay.

How much do concrete contractors charge per square foot?

Typical 2026 US prices run $6 to $12 per square foot for plain broom-finish flatwork installed, $8 to $15 for reinforced driveways, and $12 to $20 for stamped or colored concrete. Tear-out of old concrete adds $2 to $6 per square foot and sealing adds $1 to $3. Prices sit higher in large metro areas and on sites with poor access.

How do I work out how many yards of concrete to bill?

Multiply the length by the width to get square feet, multiply by the thickness in feet (4 inches is 0.333), and divide by 27 to get cubic yards. A 600 square foot slab at 4 inches is 7.4 yards. Most contractors order 5% to 10% extra for waste and an uneven base. If you price the job per square foot installed, the concrete is already in that rate.
