Home renovations budget planner
A starting point
for your budget.
The estimator covers dry rooms only. Kitchens, bathrooms and extensions have their own calculators, so full room packages are not counted twice.
Use these ranges to plan your project. NZD including GST. They are indicative budgets, not quotes.
No contact details needed to explore. The $75 initial visit is separate from these project allowances.
Indicative budget
What this allowance excludes
Kitchens, bathrooms, additions, structural alterations, hazardous-material removal, major services upgrades and professional fees.
Your project and estimate will be added to the booking. $75 same-job credit if you proceed before your quote expires.

Start with these questions about this service. Browse all FAQs →
Can we stay at home during the work?
That depends on access, dust, essential services and the rooms affected. We discuss staging at the visit before suggesting a programme.
How are hidden problems handled?
Existing damage and concealed conditions cannot be fully assessed online. Any additional work needs a clear explanation and an agreed variation before proceeding.
What should I prepare?
A list of rooms, priorities, photos, any drawings and your target budget help us make the initial visit useful.

Communication through the project
