What will it cost to build?

Change anything below and the figure updates instantly. Nothing is saved until you choose to save it.

House design

Thirteen floors of two-bedroom flats over a parking podium, two to a floor either side of a core with two lifts and two escape stairs, and a balcony off every living room the full height of the building. The lifts, frame, fire installation, standby power, pumps and piles are listed by name, not priced: get quotes for them.

Make it yours

Roof form

Changes the shape of the building, not what it is covered in.

Architectural style

Moves the eaves, the window proportions and the colours together.

Paint scheme

A main wall colour and a darker accent. The bill is the same either way: paint is measured by area, not by colour.

Not offered, because the rate library holds no rate for them: clay or concrete roof tiles (covering per m2 of roof slope, and the heavier truss that carries them — a tile roof is not a sheet roof with a different skin); stone-coated steel tiles (covering per m2, laid on battens); machine-cut block walling (walling per m2 by block size, and its own foundation walling rate); aluminium or upvc windows (supply and fix per m2 of opening, by system).

An impression of the concept priced above — the footprint, wall height, roof pitch and window positions are the same ones the quantities were measured from. Materials, colours and planting are illustrative. It is not an architectural design.
