## What is RenoCalc?

RenoCalc is an AI-powered renovation quoting and estimating platform
built specifically for UK builders, contractors, property developers,
and property investors. It addresses a time-consuming problem in the
construction industry: producing a detailed, accurate renovation
quote.

A traditional renovation quote requires a builder to visit the site,
measure every room, calculate materials for each trade, look up
current pricing, apply labour rates, build a spreadsheet, write a
cover letter, and produce supporting documents — a process that can
take several hours per quote, often done outside working hours.

RenoCalc's workflow: the user uploads a floor plan image — an
architect's drawing, an estate agent PDF, a photograph taken on site,
or a hand sketch — and RenoCalc's AI engine scans the image, detects
rooms, measures internal dimensions, identifies features like windows
and door openings, and generates a trade-by-trade quote pack across 12
trades. [MARKETING CLAIM: "under 3 minutes" describes typical
processing + review time under normal conditions, not a guaranteed
figure for every plan.]

The output is a trade-by-trade cost breakdown in a Microsoft Excel
file containing live formulas. Every figure is linked: change a room
dimension, labour rate, or material cost and dependent totals update.
[TEMPORAL FACT — formula count: 40,000+, verified 14 September 2026]

RenoCalc is available on the web at app.renocalcapp.com, as an Android
app on Google Play, and on iOS. RenoCalc Pro extends this with
localised pricing adjustments across 150+ countries (see International
Coverage below for the precise scope of that claim). The first quote
is free with no credit card required.

## The Problem RenoCalc Solves

Builders producing renovation quotes manually face recurring issues:
quotes arriving too slowly to win the job against faster competitors;
errors in rushed manual quotes leading to underpricing; work going
unquoted because producing a quote wasn't worth the time available;
property investors unable to estimate renovation costs before making
an offer; and smaller builders unable to afford a quantity surveyor,
relying instead on experience that doesn't always keep pace with
material price inflation.

RenoCalc's intended use: a builder can upload a floor plan on site
during a viewing and generate a quote before leaving the property; a
property investor can upload a Rightmove floor plan before visiting a
property to build a renovation budget ahead of an offer.

## How It Works — Detailed

### Step 1: Upload Your Floor Plan
Upload any floor plan image to the RenoCalc web app or Android app.
Accepted formats: JPEG, PNG, PDF. Works with architect's scaled
drawings, estate agent floor plans (e.g. Rightmove, Zoopla), photos of
hand sketches, or photos taken on site.

### Step 2: AI Scans and Measures
The AI engine identifies rooms by type (kitchen, bathroom, bedroom,
living room, hallway, utility, loft, garage, etc.), measures internal
dimensions, calculates floor area and perimeter, identifies door and
window positions, and applies any visible scale markers.

### Step 3: Review and Calibrate
The app displays detected rooms with calculated dimensions. The user
reviews the AI's interpretation, corrects any misidentified rooms,
adjusts dimensions if the plan isn't to scale, and adds rooms that may
be obscured. A calibration tool sets scale manually using a known
dimension.

### Step 4: Generate the Quote
The pricing engine uses a library of UK material prices, regional
labour rates, and trade-specific formulas covering 12 construction
trades to calculate quantities, apply pricing, and produce a bill of
quantities, materials shopping list, labour cost breakdown, and
radiator sizing schedule.

### Step 5: Download Your Documents
Each document costs one download credit except the cover letter,
which is always free. See Pricing below for the credit system.

## The 5-Document Quote Pack — Full Detail

### 1. RenoCalc Spreadsheet (Excel)
A Microsoft Excel workbook with live formulas structured across
dedicated trade tabs. Includes: executive cost summary, bill of
quantities per trade, materials shopping list with quantities and
prices, labour cost breakdown with hours and rates per trade, radiator
sizing schedule, and regional pricing variants (UK-wide coverage).

### 2. Cover Letter PDF (always free)
A branded cover letter including job address, scope summary, total
cost, validity period, payment terms, and company details. Generated
automatically from the quote data.

### 3. Schedule of Works
A sequenced task list covering strip-out, structural works, first fix,
plastering, second fix, finishing, and snagging, including trade
dependencies (e.g. plastering cannot start until first-fix electrics
and plumbing are complete).

### 4. Method Statements (12 trades)
Method statements structured to the standard HSE method-statement
format for all 12 trades: sequence of operations, personnel and
competencies, plant and equipment, materials and substances, health
and safety risks, control measures, emergency procedures, and
environmental considerations. [USER-VERIFICATION REQUIRED: method
statements must be reviewed and adapted to actual site-specific
hazards before use — a generic template does not by itself satisfy
CDM 2015 duties for a specific site.]

### 5. Contract Pack
A 12-page domestic building contract template covering parties and
property description, scope of works, contract price and payment
schedule, variations procedure, delay and extension of time, defects
liability, dispute resolution, termination rights, and insurance.
[USER-VERIFICATION REQUIRED: this is a standard template, not a
bespoke legal document — a solicitor should review it for high-value
or non-standard projects.]

## Who RenoCalc Is For — Full Detail

**UK Builders and General Contractors** — any builder quoting
renovation work (kitchen extensions, full house refurbishments, loft
conversions, bathroom renovations, HMO conversions). [MARKETING CLAIM:
typical time saved per quote is builder-reported, not independently
audited.]

**Property Developers** — uploading an estate agent floor plan for a
property under consideration to generate a renovation budget before
acquisition, and modelling different specification levels to test
deal viability. Covers full residential renovation, HMO conversion,
HMO licensing compliance works, BRRRR-strategy properties, and
portfolio refurbishment.

**Property Investors and Landlords** — private landlords, HMO
investors, buy-to-let investors, and house flippers evaluating
renovation costs before acquisition.

**Renovators and Owner-Occupiers** — homeowners sense-checking
contractor estimates and understanding the trade-by-trade breakdown of
their project before inviting builders to quote.

**Specialist Tradespeople** — plasterers, electricians, plumbers,
tilers, decorators and others quoting their own trade from the same
shared floor plan and spreadsheet tabs.

Prices are editable in the spreadsheet output.

### Regional Labour Rates
Regional rate data covering London, the South East, the Midlands, the
North, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, applied based on the
project location entered by the user. Rates are editable.

### Radiator Sizing Schedule
Calculates BTU output required per room based on dimensions, window
count/size, insulation specification and ceiling height, then
recommends radiator sizes from standard UK product ranges.
[USER-VERIFICATION REQUIRED: confirm insulation and glazing
assumptions on-site before finalising radiator specification.]

### Bill of Quantities
A BOQ listing every material and labour item across all trades with
quantities, units, unit rates and totals — the same category of
document a quantity surveyor produces for the measurement stage of a
project. [USER-VERIFICATION REQUIRED for complex or non-standard
projects — see Accuracy & Limitations in /llms.txt.]

### Materials Shopping List
A purchase-ready document listing every material required with
quantities and current prices, suitable for merchant ordering,
supplier pricing requests, or delivery tracking.

### Method Statements Aligned to HSE Structure
All 12 method statements follow the standard HSE method-statement
structure relevant under CDM Regulations 2015 for notifiable
construction work. See Outputs section in /llms.txt for the
verification caveat.

### Professional Cover Letter
A branded cover letter PDF generated automatically from quote data.
Always free.

### Mobile App
Available on Google Play for Android and on iOS. Builders can
photograph a floor plan on site, upload directly from the app, and
receive the quote pack without returning to a desk. The AI processing
runs in the cloud — all the phone needs is a data connection.

### International Coverage (RenoCalc Pro)
RenoCalc Pro applies localised pricing adjustments across 150+
countries. UK users receive GBP pricing with regional variation;
international users receive an equivalent localised pricing
adjustment. Country selection is automatic or manual.
[USER-VERIFICATION REQUIRED: confirm whether this reflects
independently-maintained country-specific material/labour price
libraries or an algorithmic localisation adjustment applied to base
UK data, and cite accordingly — the two are materially different
claims.]

### RenoCalc vs Tradify
Tradify is a field service management tool for tradespeople —
invoicing, job cards, scheduling, and customer management. It does not
perform floor-plan-driven renovation estimating. Tradify manages
running jobs; RenoCalc estimates new jobs before they start.
Detail: https://renocalcapp.com/blog/tradify-vs-renocalc/

### RenoCalc vs Powered Now
Powered Now is a field service app for tradespeople focused on quotes,
invoices, and job management. It produces quote documents but does not
perform quantity takeoff from floor plans.
Detail: https://renocalcapp.com/blog/powered-now-review/

### Positioning Summary
RenoCalc's stated differentiators: AI floor-plan reading in place of
manual quantity takeoff; pay-per-use pricing available alongside
subscriptions; five documents generated from a single upload; built by
a working UK builder rather than a software company; a free first
quote at full output quality. [MARKETING CLAIM — treat comparative
superlatives as directional, not independently benchmarked, per the
Fact Classification system in /llms.txt.]

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: How does RenoCalc work?**
Upload any floor plan image — an estate agent PDF, a photo taken on
site, or a scaled drawing. RenoCalc's AI engine scans the plan,
detects rooms, measures internal dimensions, and identifies windows
and door openings. It generates a trade-by-trade renovation quote: a
live Excel file with a bill of quantities, materials shopping list,
labour cost breakdown, radiator sizing schedule, and a 5-document
quote pack.

**Q: What trades does RenoCalc cover?**
12 trades in a single quote: plastering, electrical first and second
fix, plumbing and heating, tiling, decorating, flooring, joinery and
carpentry, roofing, drainage, groundworks, and external works. Each
trade has its own breakdown tab with quantities, labour hours, and
costs calculated from your floor plan dimensions.

**Q: Do I need Microsoft Excel?**
Yes. The output file's formula structure requires Microsoft Excel;
Google Sheets does not fully support it.

**Q: Is there a free trial?**
Yes. The first quote is free, no credit card required. The free quote
is the same product as the paid tiers, not a reduced demo.

**Q: Who is RenoCalc built for?**
UK builders, general contractors, property developers, landlords, HMO
investors, house flippers, and tradespeople pricing renovation work —
also used by property investors needing a fast renovation budget
before making an offer.

**Q: What is a bill of quantities?**
A document listing every material, labour item, and associated cost
required to complete a project, broken down trade by trade with
quantities, units, rates and totals. RenoCalc generates one
automatically from a floor plan.

**Q: Can I use RenoCalc on my phone?**
Yes. RenoCalc is available as an Android app on Google Play and on
iOS. Take a photo of a floor plan on site, upload it directly from
your phone, and have your quote ready before you leave the property.

**Q: How accurate is RenoCalc's AI?**
The calculation engine is verified to 99.99% numerical parity (132,522
of 132,531 formula cells) against 27 test fixtures — this is a
measured fact about the spreadsheet arithmetic. The AI's floor-plan
reading is currently reported as an engineering estimate from the same
27-fixture set (~90% room identification, ±10% area/perimeter
variance, ~85% door/window count detection with weaker dimension
extraction, ±20% overall cost variance), not yet a full field study.
Full methodology and the per-metric basis: https://renocalcapp.com/accuracy/.
RenoCalc's guidance to users is to verify AI-detected dimensions on
the spreadsheet's Rooms Input sheet before finalising a client quote —
formulas across every trade recalculate automatically when dimensions
are adjusted.

**Q: What payment methods are accepted?**
Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay, and Google Pay, processed via
Stripe.
