Build a level concrete base for a selected garden shed footprint with excavation, compacted base, edge forms and specified slab thickness. 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 (https://quicklyestimates.com/en-gb/guides/how-to-estimate-concrete-shed-base/) explains how to prepare those inputs. Prepared by Cedar & Beam Builders · fictional business Prepared for Jordan Taylor · fictional customer Example location Leicester, UK Issued / valid through 25 September 2026 / 25 October 2026 Itemised concrete shed base installation example These 7 lines reproduce the app-exported PDF exactly. The largest is Place and finish at £860.25; this is one fictional component, not a typical price. Read each quantity with its unit: area, length, time, count and lump sum describe different work and must not be interchanged. Concrete shed base installation in Leicester — GBP, fictional inputs Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount | Setting-out and protection | 1 lump sum | £132.00 | £132.00 | Excavation | 11.1 sq m | £43.10 | £478.41 | Base aggregate allowance | 1 lump sum | £248.00 | £248.00 | Formwork | 13.4 metres | £18.35 | £245.89 | Reinforcement allowance | 1 lump sum | £208.00 | £208.00 | Concrete supply | 1.5 cubic metres | £251.12 | £376.68 | Place and finish | 11.1 sq m | £77.50 | £860.25 | Illustrative total | £2,549.23 | 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 Excavation is 11.1 sq m × £43.10 = £478.41. Formwork is 13.4 metres × £18.35 = £245.89. The other lines follow the same calculation and sum to £2,549.23 . Each fixture line lands on an exact penny, so the native PDF total equals the sum of the displayed line amounts. Measurement to check: Measure shed footprint plus required edge clearance; calculate concrete volume from area and design thickness. Selection to check: Keep excavation, granular base, reinforcement allowance and concrete supply separate. 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 Confirm shed supplier base requirements and drainage before pour day. Outside this stated scope: No shed assembly, electrical supply or engineered foundation. Unexpected fill or poor bearing ground changes excavation and base design. 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.
