EXAMPLE AT A GLANCE
This fictional Birmingham kitchen sink replacement project has 7 itemised lines and an illustrative £1,036.00 total. The app-exported PDF, first-page preview, measurement basis, scope boundaries and matching UK estimating guide let you inspect every quantity and rate.
What this example covers
This fictional job is set in Birmingham and concerns one existing worktop opening. Replace one sink at an existing worktop opening with a selected compatible sink, new waste connection parts and final seal. Retain the existing tap where suitable. 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.

Itemised kitchen sink replacement example
These 7 lines reproduce the app-exported PDF exactly. The largest is Sink product allowance at £368.00; 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.
| Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Measure and worktop protection | 1 lump sum | £76.00 | £76.00 |
| Old sink removal | 1 each | £104.00 | £104.00 |
| Sink product allowance | 1 each | £368.00 | £368.00 |
| Waste and connector allowance | 1 set | £92.00 | £92.00 |
| Sink fitting and seal | 1 each | £208.00 | £208.00 |
| Drain reconnection and test | 1 lump sum | £124.00 | £124.00 |
| Disposal and clean-up | 1 lump sum | £64.00 | £64.00 |
| Illustrative total | £1,036.00 | ||
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
Measure and worktop protection is 1 lump sum × £76.00 = £76.00. Old sink removal is 1 each × £104.00 = £104.00. The other lines follow the same calculation and sum to £1,036.00. 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 the cutout, bowl depth, cabinet clearance and waste alignment before selecting the product. Selection to check: Separate sink, basket waste and fitting labour; identify whether tap reuse is confirmed. 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 the worktop material and shutoff access before the old sink is lifted.
Outside this stated scope: No worktop replacement, new tap purchase or concealed cabinet repair.
A cutout that does not fit or damaged worktop edge changes the base scope. 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.
