Is waterproofing included in the calculator’s finishing cost, or is it a separate line item?

Waterproofing is kept visible within the calculator's breakdown rather than buried inside a generic finishing percentage, because Bangalore's wet-dry monsoon cycles punish weak terrace and wet-area detailing more than most owners expect. If a contractor's quote deletes or minimises waterproofing to win on headline rate, that should be treated as a warning sign rather than a saving. Confirm exactly which areas, terrace, bathrooms, basement if any, are covered under the waterproofing scope in your written agreement.
