What this example covers
This fictional job is set in Norwich and concerns one three-fixture bathroom. Rough in water and waste connections for a toilet, basin and shower in an accessible room before finishes, against a confirmed fixture layout. The estimate is a bounded document: the customer should be able to compare the described work with its measured lines, product allowances and exclusions. The matching UK guide explains how to prepare those inputs.

The table separates the named product or material allowances from labour and site tasks wherever the scope needs that distinction. Before replacing a rate, check whether the product allowance includes delivery, waste, fixings and the selected specification.
How the total is calculated
Water pipe allowance is 25.9 metres × £36.70 = £950.53. Water rough-in labour is 20 hours × £76.00 = £1,520.00. The other lines follow the same calculation and sum to £5,238.53. Each fixture line lands on an exact penny, so the native PDF total equals the sum of the displayed line amounts.
Measurement to check: Set out each fixture centre, pipe route, chase, floor level and connection point from the selected layout. Selection to check: Identify pipe, fittings and fixture-specific connection allowances without assuming final trim products. The 0% tax field and zero markup are example document inputs, not an instruction for a live quote. Decide the correct settings for your own business and job.
Assumptions and exclusions
Coordinate wall framing and waterproofing handoff before concealing work.
Outside this stated scope: No final fixture supply, tiling, structural alterations or concealed service upgrade.
A layout change or unknown existing services alters pipe runs and access. A changed condition should lead to a newly measured quantity, explicit revised allowance or separately agreed task. Keep the customer informed of which figure changed and why before producing another PDF.
