Building Cost calculator with 2023 update

We have developed four different sophisticated cost per square metre calculators – one for extensions, one for loft conversions, one for refurbishment projects and one for new builds, and all of them updated for 2023 price per square metre build cost prices for Manchester and the UK.

Just pick the construction cost calculator below that matches the type of project you are considering. Put in the basic details of your scheme and it will quickly calculate the build cost of your extension, loft conversion, refurbishment or new build house.

The estimated build cost shown below will give a very good indicator of the likely costs for building or refurbishing your project – but do remember it is always possible to further save on these costs by planning ahead, engaging a well-established residential architecture company and choosing the right builder.

We believe in the power of architecture to transform lives and spaces

Based on years of practical experience with builders, the proven steps we’ve set up and the hands-on construction inspection approach we’ve developed, we can help you avoid any possible issues that may arise onsite. That way, you can build your project with minimum stress, complete your project on time and avoid budget blowouts.

Our design process begins with a thorough analysis of the site's history and physical properties. We gather information from surveys and discuss your specific goals and objectives with you to create a detailed project brief. During the concept design stage, we work to translate your existing space into a design that meets your aspirations. This is a collaborative process where we brainstorm ideas and provide ongoing feedback to turn your vision into a reality. Our goal is to create a design that aligns with your brief and meets your desired outcomes.

During this stage, we brainstorm ideas and give ongoing feedback to ensure that our designs meet the requirements of the design brief and accurately reflect your vision. We also consider applicable planning policies and conduct the necessary research to identify the potential scope of the project.

To make the most of your existing space, we create layout plans, elevations, sections, and 3D visuals. As we progress through the concept design stage, we continually review and refine the design brief to ensure that the project is feasible. Once the concept design is complete, we prepare the necessary planning drawings to apply for planning permission.

During the technical design stage, Muse Architects will ensure that all aspects of your project are carefully planned and designed to meet your specific needs and preferences. We will provide detailed and accurate building regulations drawings and create a comprehensive set of tender and construction documents, including specifications for materials, finishes, fixtures, and fittings.

Additionally, we will create a 3D computer model of your project to give you a better understanding of how the space will look and feel. By the end of this stage, we will have invited builders to submit bids for the construction of your project.
