Calculation check: 111.48 m² × A$4.25 = A$473.79; 24.38 m × A$16.00 = A$390.08. The demonstration tax field is 0%, so the displayed total stays A$2,736.62. Determine tax and markup for your own work instead of using this input as guidance.
Assumptions and scope boundaries
Record cracks, holes and failed areas. This example has a limited measured crack-fill line; potholes or resurfacing are distinct repairs.
Outside this example: No pothole repair, resurfacing, base repair, oil-remediation guarantee or coating of concrete surfaces.
Selections, access or concealed conditions that differ from this scope require a revised quantity, allowance or separate line. The example deliberately separates them so the client can see what has and has not been priced.

Common questions about asphalt driveway sealing
Will sealing repair a failed driveway?
No. Assess failed pavement separately and quote repair or replacement where needed.
Should crack filling be one allowance?
A measured length and stated repair limit make the allowance clearer than an undefined promise to fill all cracks.
