EXAMPLE AT A GLANCE
This fictional Kelowna, British Columbia kitchen faucet replacement example has 7 itemized costs and a C$974.00 total before tax or markup. The PDF, quantities, unit rates and scope assumptions match the table below.
Use this completed kitchen faucet replacement document to see how a specific job becomes a client-facing estimate. The project, business, customer and amounts are fictional. For the one existing-sink faucet change in Kelowna, British Columbia, the example uses the measured trade units shown in its PDF. Residential jobs may mix square feet, linear feet, counts and supplier units; keep each line’s measurement basis visible. Confirm the existing connections and equipment details on site. Identify any licensed trade work, approvals and inspections needed for the actual address without assuming the sample covers them. The figures are fictional CAD inputs, not a local price survey.
Project scope: One existing-sink faucet change
Replace one kitchen faucet at an existing suitable sink and water-supply arrangement. Include owner-selected faucet allowance, removal, connection parts allowance, installation, visible leak check and cleanup. No sink replacement or supply-line relocation.

Measure this work on the actual property before using any quantity. The illustration separates supplied products or materials from installation where the selection could change. A client should be able to compare each line with the agreed work, the selected products and the limits recorded in the notes.
The 7 itemized costs in Canadian dollars
Every row below is taken from the corresponding app-exported PDF fixture. Multiply the quantity by the unit rate to check the amount. These rates were chosen for this fictional example; they are not advertised prices or current averages for Kelowna, British Columbia.
| Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Work-area protection | 1 job | C$77.00 | C$77.00 |
| Existing faucet removal | 1 each | C$106.00 | C$106.00 |
| Faucet product allowance | 1 each | C$335.00 | C$335.00 |
| Connector and fitting allowance | 1 job | C$83.00 | C$83.00 |
| New faucet installation | 1 each | C$255.00 | C$255.00 |
| Visible leak and operation check | 1 job | C$65.00 | C$65.00 |
| Cleanup and old-part handling | 1 job | C$53.00 | C$53.00 |
| Subtotal / example total | C$974.00 | ||
Two calculation checks:
- Existing faucet removal: 1 each × C$106.00 = C$106.00.
- Faucet product allowance: 1 each × C$335.00 = C$335.00.
The PDF shows a 0% tax entry, so the illustrated tax is C$0.00 and the total remains C$974.00. This only describes the example. Confirm the applicable tax treatment and any markup for the real job before issuing your estimate.
Assumptions that change the price
Confirm mounting-hole configuration, clearances and selected faucet before pricing a final installation. Product fit is more useful than a generic faucet count.
Crowded cabinets, damaged shutoffs or corroded connections may change the work. The example assumes usable existing connections and treats repairs as a scope change.
State whether the contractor buys the faucet and which small connection parts are allowed. If the owner supplies it, remove or adjust only the material allowance.
Outside this example: No sink replacement, shutoff repair, supply relocation, drain alteration or concealed water-damage repair.
Confirm the existing connections and equipment details on site. Identify any licensed trade work, approvals and inspections needed for the actual address without assuming the sample covers them. An allowance is a stated placeholder, not a promise to cover all work discovered later. If a selected product, quantity or hidden condition changes, update the affected line and explain the revision before proceeding.

Common questions
Can I quote a faucet without a model?
Use a labeled product allowance for an early estimate, then verify the selected model against the sink before finalizing the scope.
Are new shutoffs included?
Only if listed. This example assumes the existing shutoffs are suitable and prices any repair separately.
