EXAMPLE AT A GLANCE
This fictional Liverpool floor tile grout replacement project has 6 itemised lines and an illustrative £2,491.32 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 Liverpool and concerns one tiled kitchen floor. Remove failed grout from a sound kitchen tile floor and apply new grout with a final clean; retain existing tiles. 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 floor tile grout replacement example
These 6 lines reproduce the app-exported PDF exactly. The largest is Old grout removal at £878.22; 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protection and trial joint | 1 lump sum | £124.00 | £124.00 |
| Old grout removal | 20.4 sq m | £43.05 | £878.22 |
| Joint cleaning | 20.4 sq m | £17.20 | £350.88 |
| Grout material allowance | 1 lump sum | £116.00 | £116.00 |
| Regrouting labour | 20.4 sq m | £43.05 | £878.22 |
| Final haze clean | 1 lump sum | £144.00 | £144.00 |
| Illustrative total | £2,491.32 | ||
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
Old grout removal is 20.4 sq m × £43.05 = £878.22. Joint cleaning is 20.4 sq m × £17.20 = £350.88. The other lines follow the same calculation and sum to £2,491.32. 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 grout joint length or floor area with tile size and joint width noted. Selection to check: Specify grout product and colour, and state whether sealer is selected. 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
Test a small section for tile edge condition before mechanical removal.
Outside this stated scope: No tile replacement, substrate repair or guaranteed colour match to adjacent rooms.
Loose tiles or moisture beneath the floor need separate repair. 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.
