Check the arithmetic
Machine scrubbing: 167.23 m² × A$14.00 = A$2,341.22. Edge detailing: 48.77 m × A$13.00 = A$634.01. All other lines use the same quantity-by-rate calculation and sum to A$6,223.43. Every fixture line lands on an exact cent, so the native PDF subtotal equals the displayed table total.
Measurement to check: Measure floor area, aisle obstructions, edge length and available cleaning window. Selection to check: Identify cleaning chemical and consumables according to the floor finish. The PDF uses a 0% tax input only to make its fictional arithmetic visible. Confirm the GST treatment that applies to the actual job and set your own markup before sharing a client quote.
Assumptions and exclusions
Test a small area and plan drying and customer access before work.
Outside this stated scope: No stripping, sealing, polishing or hazardous spill cleanup.
Loose floor finish or stubborn buildup may require a separate restoration service. A changed condition should lead to a newly measured quantity, revised allowance or separately agreed task. Keep the client informed of the changed figure before producing another PDF.
