The Most Accurate Estimates Available

Building regulation estimates represent the gold standard of construction cost estimation. With the full detail of building regulation drawings — including construction details, structural specifications, drainage layouts and material schedules — our Quantity Surveyors can produce highly accurate estimates that typically fall within 5-10% of the final build cost.

These estimates are essential for contractors preparing tenders, homeowners about to commit to a build, and architects finalising project budgets. The additional construction detail in building reg drawings means we can price with confidence, accounting for specific materials, construction methods, insulation requirements and structural elements.

Whether you need to compare builder quotes, support a mortgage application, or set a definitive project budget, a building regulation estimate gives you the accuracy and detail to proceed with confidence.

Common Questions

Building Reg Estimate FAQ

Building regulation drawings include significantly more detail — structural specifications, construction methods, insulation requirements, drainage layouts and material schedules. This allows us to measure and price every element with precision, rather than making assumptions.

The result is typically 5-10% accuracy compared to 10-15% for planning-stage estimates.

Ideally we need the complete building regulation drawing set: floor plans, sections, elevations, construction details, structural drawings and any specifications. The more information available, the more accurate the estimate.

If you are missing some drawings, we can still proceed and note assumptions. Contact us to discuss what you have available.

The ideal time is once your building regulation drawings are complete and approved (or near-final). This ensures maximum accuracy.

Many clients start with a budget or planning estimate for early feasibility, then commission a building reg estimate before going out to tender or committing to a builder.
