What can change a real Nottingham quote?

  • Bathroom size and finish level
  • Moving toilet, bath, shower or basin positions
  • Wall and floor tiling area
  • Bath, shower and enclosure specification
  • First- and second-fix plumbing
  • Electrical work and ventilation
  • Underfloor heating, plastering and decoration

Local planning considerations

Use the regional model as an early budget only; property condition, access and contractor availability can have a larger effect than the regional multiplier.

  • Existing property condition can move refurbishment costs more than the modest East Midlands model adjustment.
  • Groundworks, drainage and level changes should be kept separate on extensions, driveways and landscaping projects.
  • For older homes, allow surveys or opening-up work before treating an online estimate as a firm scope.

How the regional model works

The 0.97× factor places this planning estimate 3% below the national planning baseline. We keep that modelling assumption separate from the dated national benchmark so users can see which part comes from an external source and which part is UK Home Costs modelling.
