How to use Home Project Budget Worksheet

Run the related calculator first, then write the result into the worksheet with the assumptions beside it. The written notes are the part that make the number useful later.

Compare one alternative

After the first version, change one assumption and write a second estimate. That might be a smaller target, a cheaper quote, a delayed date or a different offer. Comparing two versions is more useful than trusting one tidy result.

Before printing

Write down what the quote includes and excludes before comparing totals. A cheaper project can become expensive if delivery, disposal, tools, repair work or permit fees are not part of the first estimate.

Use the notes column to mark whether each cost is quoted, researched or guessed. That makes it easier to see which part of the project needs a real price before you commit.
