The below calculator is to give self builders the indicative costs of a self build timber frame home. Some of the costs listed below will vary depending on the final specification, please be aware of this when working on your self-build budget. Please enter in the below outlined box the required detail to calculate the indicative cost if you were to self-manage your new build home.

The figures shown below will give a very good indicator of the likely costs for building your timber frame new build – but do remember it’s always possible to further save on these costs, for example, using our competitively priced premium timber frame packages. Also, if you have the time and the necessary skills you could also carry out portions of the works yourself and save even more money on labour costs.
