How This Home Renovation Cost Calculator Works

Renovation costs are made up of independent categories that don't all scale the same way -- painting, flooring, electrical and plumbing work typically scale with the area being renovated, while a kitchen or bathroom renovation is usually quoted as a flat package cost regardless of the home's overall size. This calculator lets you toggle each category on or off and enter your own rate, then adds up only the categories you've selected.

Getting Accurate Rates

Renovation rates vary enormously by city, material quality (basic vs. branded tiles/fittings) and contractor. The defaults shown are illustrative starting points for a mid-range renovation -- get quotes from 2-3 local contractors for your actual categories before finalizing a budget.

Planning for the Unexpected

Renovation projects, especially electrical and plumbing work in older homes, often uncover unexpected issues once work begins. It's common practice to keep a contingency of 10-15% on top of your estimated total for such surprises.
