Product selection and installation should be clear from the descriptions. Confirm delivery, fixings, preparation, waste and any specialist trade responsibility for the actual job rather than assuming each allowance covers them.
Check the arithmetic
Grout removal: 8.18 m² × A$90.50 = A$740.29. Regrouting labour: 8.18 m² × A$103.50 = A$846.63. All other lines use the same quantity-by-rate calculation and sum to A$2,387.41. Every fixture line lands on an exact cent, so the native PDF subtotal equals the displayed table total.
Measurement to check: Measure tiled wall area, joint width, corners and sealant run separately. Selection to check: Confirm grout and sealant products; distinguish cosmetic renewal from a waterproofing repair. 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 for loose tile and allow drying before new materials are applied.
Outside this stated scope: No tile replacement, concealed leak repair or waterproofing guarantee.
Water behind tile or a failed waterproofing layer requires a new scope. 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.
