How this works
Your goal: Decide which renovations are worth doing, what they cost, and whether they fit your budget before you hire anyone.
1 · Pick scopes
Select every area you want to renovate — kitchen, bath, roof, pool, outdoor living or whole home.
2 · Set finish level
Choose Standard, Premium or Estate finishes and enter your home size and current value.
3 · Test your budget
Move the budget slider to see cost, 12% contingency, added value and the weeks of work.
4 · Save & execute
Save the run, then send it to BuildCost IQ™ for a real estimate or hire verified trades.
You end with: A saved renovation plan with total cost, contingency, value added, ROI and a realistic timeline.
Green means you are within budget; red shows the overage to trim.
