About

NSW Building Cost Estimator — Free Tool by Buildana

Instantly calculate construction costs for residential projects in Sydney and NSW. Whether you're planning a custom home, duplex, knockdown rebuild, granny flat, or extension, get a ballpark estimate in seconds — without chasing quotes.

HOW IT WORKS
Select your project type, enter the floor area in m², and choose your finish level (Budget / Standard / Premium). The tool calculates a cost range based on Rawlinsons Australian Construction Handbook data for the Sydney market.

WHAT IT COVERS
• Custom homes
• Duplexes
• Knockdown rebuilds (KDR)
• Granny flats
• Home extensions

FINISH LEVELS
• Budget — basic finishes, volume builder standard
• Standard — mid-range inclusions, quality fixtures
• Premium — high-end finishes, custom joinery

WHY USE THIS
Most builders won't give you a number until you've signed a contract. This tool gives you a realistic starting point so you can walk into conversations with builders knowing your ballpark — not guessing.
