How the subtotal is calculated

The example line for old stair covering removal is 13 steps × $18.00 = $234.00. 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 $2,581.00 . 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: Count individual treads and risers, record widths and measure the landing separately; roll layout affects purchasing. Selection to verify: Separate carpet roll allowance, underlay and stair fitting labor.

Assumptions and exclusions

Confirm old covering removal and safe use of the stairs during work.

Outside the stated scope: No stair structural repair, handrail work or adjacent room carpet.

Curved steps or unsound stair edges change the fitting pattern and preparation. If the scope changes after a client reviews the estimate, update the relevant quantities, allowances and written exclusions before sharing a revised PDF.
