Itemised light fixture installation example

Each amount is its quantity multiplied by its AUD unit rate, rounded to cents. These 6 entries match the fixture used to make the PDF. Metric surface and length units describe the priced work, not a conversion rule for another property.

Light fixture installation example — AUD Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount |

Work-area setup and protection | 1 job | A$140.00 | A$140.00 |

Existing fixture removal | 4 each | A$77.00 | A$308.00 |

Mounting parts allowance | 4 each | A$49.00 | A$196.00 |

New fixture installation labour | 4 each | A$217.00 | A$868.00 |

Basic operation check | 4 each | A$35.00 | A$140.00 |

Packaging and cleanup | 1 job | A$119.00 | A$119.00 |

Subtotal / example total | A$1,771.00 |

Calculation check: 4 each × A$77.00 = A$308.00; 4 each × A$49.00 = A$196.00. The demonstration tax field is 0%, so the displayed total stays A$1,771.00. Determine tax and markup for your own work instead of using this input as guidance.

Assumptions and scope boundaries

The sample assumes suitable existing boxes and controls. Any box reinforcement, circuit change or wall/ceiling finish work requires separate review.

Outside this example: No fixture purchase, new wiring, switch relocation, box reinforcement, ceiling refinishing or specialty lift access.

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 light fixture installation

Does a light installation estimate include the fixtures?

This example is for owner-selected fixtures; no fixture purchase is listed. Add a product allowance when the contractor supplies them.

Should old fixtures be removed in a separate line?

Yes when removal is part of the work. It makes handling and disposal responsibilities easier to see.
