Schedule of works planner

See how a refurb usually runs before you ask for quotes. Pick the type of project, its size and the phases it needs to get an example timeline and a budget split by phase. Every figure is an example to plan with, not a price.

Your project

A tired house brought up to a lettable or saleable standard: rewire, heating, kitchen, bathroom, plaster.

The example figures are written for 85 m² and scale with the size.

Phases

Untick the phases your project doesn't need.
