House Construction Cost is a complete house-building companion for homeowners, contractors and civil engineers. Estimate what your house will cost, plan every stage of the build, and keep quotations, checklists and documents for each project in one place. ESTIMATE WITH PRECISION Enter the built-up area, cost per sq ft (or sq m) and build time to get the total cost and detailed material quantities for cement, sand, aggregate, steel, bricks, tiles, paint, doors and windows. Choose a Basic, Standard or Premium finish, add a contingency reserve, and get a warning when your plot's FSI limit is exceeded. Set your region once for the right currency and area unit. SEE THE FULL PICTURE Every estimate opens as a clear summary, cost breakdown, report and timeline. Bar and pie charts show where the money goes, and an interactive Gantt chart lays out the build over 6, 12, 18 or 24 months. Adjust material coefficients, wastage and the cost split to match your local rates, then export a PDF report or an Excel workbook. PROJECTS IN ONE PLACE Save an estimate as a project, link it to a client, and open its hub: estimate, quotations, documents, checklists, stage guides and maintenance calendar, all kept together and easy to find. PROFESSIONAL QUOTATIONS Create client-ready quotations in three layouts: lump-sum, item-rate (BOQ) and labour-only. Edit every item, amount and payment milestone and see the totals update as you type. Export as a branded PDF or Word document with your logo, contact details, terms and signature, and share instantly by WhatsApp, email or print. 12-STAGE BUILD GUIDE From design and excavation to finishing and handover, each stage explains what happens on site, what to check before you pay the next milestone, and what it should cost. Tick off the checks as you go, separately for each project. CHECKLISTS AND SITE FORMS Use built-in checklists for pre-construction, contractor agreement, material and quality inspection, handover and hidden costs, or make your own. Answer Yes, No or N/A on each item, add sign-offs and print a PDF with your letterhead. Templates for contractor agreements, change orders, payment schedules, site inspection reports, daily site logs, material delivery registers, snag lists, handover certificates and warranty letters are ready to fill in and sign on screen. DOCUMENT VAULT Keep saved quotations and documents under the project they belong to. Reopen, edit, link, export or delete them any time.
