Self build cost calculator 2022

The above calculator is based on estimates as a starting price for a self build house. Above costs assume modest finishes, fittings, electrics and lighting.

 

Kitchen cost

We have allowed £10,000 for a kitchen. This should allow for a basic, average sized kitchen with basic appliances. You can add extra to the total as you require for your specification.

 

Bathroom cost

We have allowed £10,000 for a WC/bathroom.

 

Professional fees

We have allowed 15% on the construction costs for professional fees.

 

VAT

VAT has not been included, as the majority of construction/material costs are zero rated for VAT.

 

Case studies – self build costs

We asked the architects on Design for Me for real-life examples of self build houses and how much they cost. See our article here.
