Project scope: One accessible balcony deck

Renew the waterproof surface system on one small accessible balcony, including edge and outlet details on a sound substrate.

The matching guide (https://quicklyestimates.com/en-ca/guides/how-to-estimate-balcony-waterproofing/) explains how measurement, product selection and site conditions affect the estimate.

The 7 CAD cost lines

The table uses the exact items, quantities and unit rates in the app-exported PDF. Multiply each quantity by its rate to check the amount. These chosen figures demonstrate the document; they are not surveyed prices or suggested rates for Victoria, British Columbia.

Balcony waterproofing renewal example · CAD Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount |

Access and weather protection | 1 job | C$420.00 | C$420.00 |

Existing finish removal | 120 sq. ft. | C$8.90 | C$1,068.00 |

Substrate preparation | 120 sq. ft. | C$7.65 | C$918.00 |

Waterproof system allowance | 130 sq. ft. | C$19.00 | C$2,470.00 |

Application labour | 120 sq. ft. | C$26.00 | C$3,120.00 |

Edge and outlet detailing | 1 job | C$955.00 | C$955.00 |

Final inspection and cleanup | 1 job | C$270.00 | C$270.00 |

Illustrative subtotal | C$9,221.00 |

Check the arithmetic

- Existing finish removal: 120 sq. ft. × C$8.90 = C$1,068.00.
- Substrate preparation: 120 sq. ft. × C$7.65 = C$918.00.

The rounded line amounts add to C$9,221.00 . The PDF's tax field is 0%, so its illustrated total stays C$9,221.00 before any markup. The sample shows 0% tax only to make the arithmetic visible. Determine any applicable GST, HST or PST and markup for the actual work before sharing a quote.

Measurement to verify: Measure deck area, threshold height, upstands, edge length and drainage outlet. Product decision: Specify the membrane or coating system and edge profiles separately.

The existing finish removal line uses 120 sq. ft., approximately 11.15 m². Keep the actual site measurement and the supplier’s selling unit together when you replace this quantity.

Assumptions and exclusions

Remove existing finish, inspect substrate and confirm drainage fall before applying the new system.

Outside this example: No structural deck replacement, new guardrail or interior damage repair.

Hidden substrate rot or inadequate fall requires a revised build-up. Review access, grades, drainage and seasonal conditions at the property. Check utility locations, product availability and any local design or municipal requirements that apply to the real scope. Confirm a change and update the estimate before adding work that was not in the base scope.
