How the subtotal is calculated
The example line for measure and countertop protection is 1 job × $95.00 = $95.00. This line is one part of the complete 7-item estimate and uses a fictional unit rate.
The document sums the rounded line amounts to $1,295.00. Tax and markup are not included; a zero tax field in a sample document does not mean a real project is tax-exempt. Confirm the actual treatment for the job you are quoting.
Measurement to verify: Measure the cutout, bowl depth, cabinet clearance and waste alignment before selecting the product. Selection to verify: Separate sink, basket waste and fitting labor; identify whether faucet reuse is confirmed.
Assumptions and exclusions
Confirm the countertop material and shutoff access before the old sink is lifted.
Outside the stated scope: No countertop replacement, new faucet purchase or concealed cabinet repair.
A cutout that does not fit or damaged counter edge changes the base scope. If the scope changes after a client reviews the estimate, update the relevant quantities, allowances and written exclusions before sharing a revised PDF.
