How to make your own estimate for apartment renovation. An example of an estimate for the renovation of a premises, important points when drawing up Drawing up an estimate for the renovation of a premises

Anyone who wants to build a house or renovate an apartment initially calculates how much it will cost him. For complete clarity, it is necessary to make a list necessary materials and works, as well as their cost. Based on this, you can find out how much money you will need. And also decide whether to involve builders or do everything yourself. Not everyone knows how to draw up an estimate, what items to include in it and how to calculate everything correctly. Let's try to figure this out.

What is an estimate

An estimate is a document that systematizes all costs for upcoming construction or repairs. You can easily do this yourself, without having specially developed programs.

How to make an estimate on your own? All you need is Excel on your computer. Calculation of funds and materials must be done very carefully to avoid mistakes and exceeding planned costs. It should display everything down to the smallest detail.

Common mistakes

When drawing up estimates, many make mistakes, which then come to light and provoke unforeseen expenses:

Calculations are carried out without a preliminary inspection of the facility where the work will be performed.
Additional expenses that may arise due to force majeure circumstances are not included.
Not taken into account full list works and materials.

The main expenditure document for repairs or construction requires a serious approach and accurate calculations. Otherwise, you may get incorrect results.

What is necessary for competent budgeting

Before drawing up an estimate for construction or repairs, you first need to inspect the property. After this, you should make a list of all the work being carried out.

How to make an estimate correctly? You need to know construction technology. Without this, it is impossible to competently and correctly calculate and record all upcoming expenses. Therefore, we recommend that before drawing up an estimate, you study the sequence of the production cycle of the work that needs to be estimated. This will help to understand the need for operations and the need for building materials.

Main items of the estimate

Any construction estimate consists of three main items:

materials;
Job;
transport.

All other items (cost of electricity, equipment operation, etc.) are added to them.

The first position indicates a list of necessary materials for each cycle of work, unit of measurement, quantity and price. For example: brick, glue, plaster, cement, wallpaper, linoleum and others. This also includes “consumables” (brushes, rollers, gloves, etc.). Before making an estimate, find out the cost of materials directly in the store, or search on the Internet on sites specializing in the sale of building materials.

The second position includes a list of all actions performed. Here you need to take into account both preparatory and Finishing work, their complexity and the conditions in which they are carried out. For example, you need to cover a room with new wallpaper. To do this, you will need to carry out preparatory work: remove the old coating, clean the walls, prime them. Approximate cost necessary work can be found in the advertisements.

The “transport” position includes: delivery of materials, unloading, removal and removal of construction waste, indicating each item on a separate line. Information on the cost of these services is provided in the companies' price lists.

Drawing up an estimate for apartment renovation

How to correctly draw up an estimate in order to carefully plan renovation work in an apartment and complete it in a short time with minimal costs? First you need to decide what kind of repair you will do: cosmetic or major. The quantity depends on this necessary materials and scope of work. If you decide to spend major renovation, then the estimate should be divided into two parts:

repair and finishing works;
roughing and finishing materials.

How to learn how to make an estimate to avoid mistakes? To do this, you should inspect all the premises of the apartment, measure the surface area of the walls, floors, window slopes, make a list of finishing and rough materials, determine the cost and scope of work for each room separately.

Example

Let's give an example of how to create an estimate for repairs. Prices and material consumption are fictitious.

Repair and finishing works:

Work location	Type of work	Unit	Quantity	Price per unit of measurement, rub.	Total amount, rub.

	Putty

Consumables and finishing materials:

Material	Unit	Quantity	Price per unit	total amount
Starting putty

Transport:

To get preliminary results of apartment renovation costs, you need to add up the totals from each column.

18819 + 7870 + 4000 = 30689 (rub.)

You should know that the final costs are always 10-15% more.

30689 + 15% = 35292.35 (RUB)

The principle of calculating construction costs does not differ from the estimate for repairs. Only production cycles and materials will change. How to create an estimate for construction with minimal costs? To do this, you need to carefully plan all the work, clarify what materials will be needed, and find out the prices.

Drawing up an estimate is a very important stage from which you need to begin any repair or construction. A correctly drawn up document will help you carefully plan and rationally distribute costs - both material and money. The main thing is to take the calculations seriously and perform them as accurately as possible.

We all periodically face the need to repair and decorate an apartment. First we need to decide whether we just want to update the room or completely change it appearance? After that, we evaluate our financial capabilities. You also need to choose the style of the apartment; to do this, we review the photos on the website or in magazines. The style should reflect the character of the owners and demonstrate taste. We decide on the color of the walls and ceiling. The combination of colors should be harmonious. If possible, it is better to renovate the entire apartment. Too much debris and dirt remains after renovation.

To draw up the main stages of renovation, you need a general plan of the apartment with the dimensions of windows and doors. The purchase of materials and tools depends on how correctly the work plan is drawn up. It is necessary to determine the start and end dates of the repair so that it does not drag on for many months.

Repair begins with the dirty robots themselves: replacing windows, removing door frames, gating walls under electrical wiring, sockets and switches, removing old wallpaper, whitewashing, plaster. Dismantling old tiles in the bathroom, bathroom and kitchen. After this, we dismantle the pipes, if necessary.

We begin the remodeling process with the bathroom and kitchen. When renovating premises, most of the dirt and dust remain. We lay tiles on the leveled walls. It cleans well and is indispensable for wet areas. We immediately resolve the issue of replacing the bathtub, toilet and sink. Then we renovate all the rooms one by one, starting with the furthest one. Repairing the corridor is done last.

The most labor-intensive and monotonous type of work is putty. There are many types of starting and finishing putty. If the walls have to be leveled a lot, then the stage plastering works is extended. A thick layer dries slower. For stronger adhesion of the putty to the surface, the walls and ceiling are pre-primed. After complete drying, apply finishing putty. Smooth surfaces of walls and ceilings are the main thing for properly performed work.

The quality of the apartment floor depends on the screed. You can make a classic screed from cement-sand mortar. With the development of repair technologies, self-leveling floor leveling has also begun to be used. If you have an apartment on the ground floor, then the heated floor will become great solution. There are many types of flooring offered on the market: parquet, laminate, linoleum, etc. Any of them can be laid on a flat floor.

Painting work is carried out only after the final drying of the ceilings, walls and floor screeds. After this we whitewash or paint the ceiling. Next we install interior partitions or doors. We pay special attention to the selection and installation of wallpaper. Wallpaper design can support any renovation concept, and correct sticking- This is the basis for creating the interior of an apartment. Lastly, we install skirting boards, trim, plumbing and decor.

The sequence of work has been decided. Now a few words about the purchase and delivery of materials. Materials are the main expense item. Starting and finishing putty, primer, water-based paint and wallpaper is suitable for walls and ceilings. For the floor you need to choose the appropriate covering and screed material. For the bathroom, kitchen, and toilet you will need tiles, glue and fugue. Faucets in the bathroom and kitchen definitely need to be replaced. It is necessary to accurately calculate the quantity of wallpaper and facing tiles, since the color may vary in different batches.

If you hire builders, you don't have to worry about tools; they prefer to work with their own supplies. You'll have to buy paint brushes and a couple of spatulas. If you are going to renovate the apartment yourself, then you should take care of construction tools in advance. Modern materials require special tools. They are expensive to buy, so rent them.

When calculating the consumption of any material, it is necessary to find out the area to which it will be applied and multiply this number by the consumption rate. And don’t forget to add 10% to your calculations for the amount of materials. Make an estimate. If you decide to change the bathroom and toilet, add their cost to your total expenses. If you forgot something, no problem. IN construction stores everything you need is available. You should have a reserve of money for at least 30% of the amount calculated according to the estimate, because during the repair process there will always be unplanned expenses.

If you live in an apartment being renovated, then remodel each room separately. You can do the repairs yourself or hire a contractor, but remember that many of the above jobs require certain qualifications. If you haven’t plastered, screeded floors or laid tiles before, then it’s better not to waste energy on work and money on materials. It will be cheaper to hire professionals. In any case, double-glazed windows must be installed by a specialized company. The same applies to front door. Be careful about fashionable apartment redevelopment. Do not damage load-bearing walls.

If there is a need to renovate an office space, then the question immediately arises of the mandatory preparation of an estimate for the repair. When contacting construction company It’s better to first invite an estimator who will calculate everything. A correctly drawn up estimate for the renovation of an office space includes such parameters as an indication of the materials from which the room is built. This is due to the fact that the cost of repairs depends on the level of complexity, and work in an old building with brick walls more difficult than in a modern monolithic one. The estimate also includes the names of the work that is planned to be carried out, the units of measurement for these types of work, quantity, cost per unit and the cost of a separate type of work. The end result is the full cost of the work. Moreover, each room is calculated separately. Some types of estimates include only the following parameters: materials, work, total (separately for square meter and everything).
In the end, this document will allow the client to navigate necessary costs, think over the types of repairs that are needed first. The quality and cost of the building materials themselves can be negotiated with the contractors additionally. In addition, you can simply purchase the required amount of finishing materials yourself. finishing materials, and the company’s responsibility is to include the purchase of only rough construction materials and construction works. You can order an estimate from a company specializing in the production of such documentation in order to control the contractor and not overpay.
It should be borne in mind that the cost of the work indicated in the estimate for the renovation of office space may vary depending on the timing of the work, therefore, if you decide to sign the estimate presented by the company, you must indicate in it the deadlines for completing the order.
If, before starting repairs, its scope is not completely clear or individual moments, then upon concluding the contract, an approximate (approximate) estimate for office renovation is signed. Individual paragraphs of such a document can be changed in accordance with changing circumstances.
If you don’t have time to compile the documentation yourself, but want to plan in advance renovation work available, then a standard estimate can be downloaded. In this case, it is possible to choose an option that corresponds to the planned repair.
