We are not quantity surveyors. Our cost plans are estimates. You check every figure before you rely on it, and you are responsible for how you use it.Estimates you check and stand behind. How this works

Prices

Fixed prices, set by the floor area of the work and the service you choose. The price is the total you pay. It rises with the size of the work, never with its value.

Total price for one set of drawings. Floor area is the gross internal area of the work, all floors together.

All services are estimates by a non-chartered estimator. None is a quantity surveyor's cost plan, valuation or certificate. You check the figures before you use them.

Regular work

The list price never changes. Buyers who commit get more for their money:

  • Pay £500, get £550 of credit, usable on any job for 12 months. Buy
  • Pay £1,000, get £1,150 of credit, usable on any job for 12 months. Buy
  • £295 a month gives £370 of credit; unused credit carries over one month. Start
  • £595 a month gives £775 of credit; unused credit carries over one month. Start

Independent merchants: ask about offering take-offs under your own name.

When we quote instead

Work over 400 m², commercial projects, budgets over £500,000, and anything a lender, funder or employer will rely on are quoted individually, so we can check the job suits an estimating service that is not a quantity surveyor.

Paying

You pay by card through Stripe once we have checked your drawings and confirmed the price. Homeowners can cancel within 14 days of paying; see terms, section 6.

What is not included

  • Labour, unless you add it from your builder's own rates
  • Plant, scaffolding, skips, delivery charges and preliminaries
  • Professional fees, statutory charges and contingency
  • Specialist items with no merchant price (structural steel, bespoke joinery), which we list for a quote
  • Site visits: we measure from the drawings only
