Home Construction Estimate Spreadsheet

We use the same calculator to estimate the cost of building your home every time. It checks everything, from the materials needed to build, to the workers, taxes, and any extra costs. This way, we can be clear about how we figure out the total price, so you’ll know exactly where the money is going.

Using our home pricing tool is simple. Just fill in the cost details for each part of the project in the provided boxes—like the price for materials, labor, equipment, and subcontractors. As soon as you type in a number, the tool automatically calculates and updates the total cost for that item. Once you’ve entered all your numbers, scroll down to the summary section to see a clear breakdown of the subtotal, overhead, profit, taxes, and the final total—all shown with commas to make the numbers easy to read. This way, you can see exactly how every dollar is added up to give you the final price of your home.
