How to read the quantities
Floor removal is 300 sq. ft. × $1.25 = $375. Wall-board removal is 200 × $1.50 = $300. The combined $675 does not include the separately stated debris-handling allowance.
What the example includes—and leaves out
Identify any assessment, service isolation or material testing required for the actual job. Do not assume concealed conditions are safe or included. This example prices defined finish removal only and is not a procedure for carrying out demolition.
Outside this scope: No structural demolition, utility disconnection, hazardous-material abatement, concealed-condition repairs or reconstruction.
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.

Common questions
Does a demolition estimate include rebuilding?
Not unless rebuilding is explicitly listed. Separate removal, cleanup and reconstruction so the customer understands the condition left at the end of each scope.
Why show debris handling separately?
Removal effort and disposal arrangements can change independently. A defined handling line makes access constraints and provider charges easier to review.
