Prepared by Cedar & Beam Builders · fictional business Prepared for Jordan Taylor · fictional customer Example location Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Issued / valid through September 21 / October 21, 2026 Itemized concrete patio estimate The table below uses the same quantities and unit prices as the downloadable PDF. Amounts are in US dollars; the location provides context and does not make these local market rates. Concrete patio example — USD Work item | Quantity | Unit price | Amount | Basic site preparation | 240 sq. ft. | $1.50 | $360.00 | Base material allowance | 1 job | $250.00 | $250.00 | Forms and stakes | 64 linear ft. | $4.00 | $256.00 | Reinforcement allowance | 1 job | $180.00 | $180.00 | Concrete supply allowance | 3.25 cubic yd. | $180.00 | $585.00 | Placement and finishing labor | 240 sq. ft. | $4.00 | $960.00 | Cleanup | 1 job | $150.00 | $150.00 | Subtotal / example total | $2,741.00 | Tax and markup: not included. Determine and apply the appropriate values for your own job. A zero tax entry in this example does not mean the work is tax-exempt. How to read the quantities Geometric volume: 12 × 20 × (4 ÷ 12) ÷ 27 = 2.96 cubic yards. The example purchases 3.25 cubic yards × $180 = $585; the difference is a stated purchasing assumption. What the example includes—and leaves out The example covers 12 × 20 = 240 square feet. Four inches is one-third of a foot, so the geometric volume is 80 cubic feet. Divide by 27 to convert cubic feet to cubic yards, giving about 2.96 cubic yards before the purchasing allowance. Outside this scope: No engineered design, difficult excavation, existing slab removal, pumping, retaining work or landscape restoration. Keep unresolved selections and site conditions visible. If a measurement, material choice or repair requirement changes, revise the relevant quantity or allowance and share the updated estimate before proceeding with the added work.

View full size (https://quicklyestimates.com/assets/guides/concrete-patio/en-US/costs.png). Common questions How do I convert concrete area to cubic yards? Multiply square feet by thickness in feet, then divide by 27. Add only a purchasing allowance appropriate to the confirmed job and supplier arrangements. Does a patio estimate establish the correct slab thickness? No. An estimate prices an agreed scope. Thickness, reinforcement and suitability need to be determined for the actual site and intended use. TAKE THE NEXT JOB FROM SCOPE TO PDF Make your own concrete patio estimate.
