EXAMPLE AT A GLANCE
This fictional Nottingham cooker hood installation project has 7 itemised lines and an illustrative £1,176.00 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 Nottingham and concerns one extractor hood above existing cooker. Replace one kitchen extractor hood using a selected unit and an existing suitable duct and electrical supply. Include removal, mounting, connection and operation check. 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 cooker hood installation example
These 7 lines reproduce the app-exported PDF exactly. The largest is Extractor hood product allowance at £432.00; 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Site and connection check | 1 lump sum | £92.00 | £92.00 |
| Existing extractor hood removal | 1 each | £112.00 | £112.00 |
| Extractor hood product allowance | 1 each | £432.00 | £432.00 |
| Duct transition allowance | 1 set | £96.00 | £96.00 |
| Mount and secure extractor hood | 1 each | £232.00 | £232.00 |
| Connection and airflow check | 1 lump sum | £136.00 | £136.00 |
| Disposal and clean-up | 1 lump sum | £76.00 | £76.00 |
| Illustrative total | £1,176.00 | ||
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
Site and connection check is 1 lump sum × £92.00 = £92.00. Existing extractor hood removal is 1 each × £112.00 = £112.00. The other lines follow the same calculation and sum to £1,176.00. 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 opening width, mounting height, duct route and available power before ordering. Selection to check: Show the extractor hood product and transition fittings separately from mounting labour. 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
Check cabinet clearances and isolate power before removal; verify the chosen unit fits the existing outlet.
Outside this stated scope: No new external vent, electrical circuit, cabinet rebuild or wall finish repair.
An absent duct, unsuitable wiring or cabinet modification requires a separately scoped trade visit. 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.
