How to read the quantities
Four head allowances × $38 = $152. Four replacement labor lines × $78 = $312. Their $464 subtotal excludes review, fittings and checking.
What the example includes—and leaves out
Nozzle pattern, connection and head model must suit the existing layout. Replace the fictional head allowance with the chosen parts list.
Outside this scope: No controller replacement, valve repair, buried main repair, new trenching or full-system redesign.
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
Can four bad heads be priced as one repair?
They can be grouped if the location and product assumptions match, but a count and unit basis make revisions easier.
Does a head replacement fix low pressure?
Not necessarily. Pressure or buried-line problems need separate diagnosis rather than an implied guarantee.
