Cost variables

There are a number of variables that should be considered when estimating the costs of a residential construction project, such as:

  • Project size and complexity;
  • Types of materials, fixtures and fittings;
  • Type of terrain;
  • Size of the building company/profit margins;
  • Construction overruns – contingency planning;
  • Site access, parking spots for machinery, excavators etc;
  • Removal of rubbish and builders waste;
  • Planning delays;
  • Weather delays; and
  • Seasonal factors such as public holidays and busy periods.
