What this means for your estimate
For an affected property, a generic exterior replacement allowance may not describe the approved materials or scope. Match the estimate to the issued details and separate unapproved alternatives from the base price.

Keep Philadelphia interior partitions distinct from exterior review work
For a Philadelphia fit-out, indicate whether your drywall bid is confined to new interiors or also includes repair around retained exterior assemblies. Upload the wall-type schedule, room layouts and details identifying the work boundary. F&K can separate new partitions, patches and ceiling work in the takeoff, with layers and heights traced to the specified assembly. Do not let an undecided exterior option change the interior base quantity without an issued detail. State which insulation, backing and finishing items are included when requesting the proposal.
Board quantities and complete wall assemblies
Separate partition types, heights, layers and framing before totaling board area. Check rated assembly references, shaft and ceiling details, and backing responsibilities; a floor-area allowance does not define those different installation conditions.
To define your quote: Do you need board quantities only, or framing, insulation, ceilings, finishing and accessories as one package?
Repair, replacement and approval-dependent options
Keep the documented base repair separate from proposed replacements. An unresolved exterior selection belongs in an identified option or allowance until the project team supplies an accepted detail. A preservation reference does not establish that every item in the building needs replacement. For this Philadelphia, PA drywall and metal framing estimating request: Include applicable approval comments, exterior details and the selected material basis. Identify proposed substitutions that still require a decision.
Which repair details and material selections are accepted, and which alternatives are still awaiting a decision?
