About HomeReno Cost
Home project estimates that show their work.
HomeReno Cost builds free home-improvement cost calculators that show every line item, cite where national prices come from, and adjust labor for your region.
What makes HomeReno Cost different
Cited cost inputs
Methodology pages list formulas, unit costs, labor models, and source links.
Independent publisher
We are not contractors and do not sell leads, so estimates are not steering you to a quote.
Reviewed guidance
Guides stay hidden until reviewed against the calculator model and cited sources.
How we estimate
For each part of a job we multiply a quantity, driven by the size and options you enter, by a national unit cost, then apply a quality-grade factor. A regional labor multiplier, built from government wage statistics, is applied to the labor portion only; materials are priced nationally.
Who is behind it
The calculators and guides are built and maintained by the HomeRenoCost Editorial Team, which develops the cost models, compiles price and wage data, and edits the written guidance.
What these numbers are
Our figures are derived estimates compiled from public cost aggregators and government wage data. They are not contractor quotes. Always confirm with a licensed professional before you budget or sign a contract.
