Home Renovation Quote Comparison
Compare builders' quotes on the same scope and find missing costs.
Use your own entries in a reusable offline planner or calculator, then keep the details reviewable with the accompanying printables. Monetary entries and outputs use UK sterling (£).
WHAT YOU GET
- One offline HTML tool: quote-compare.html.
- One three-page A4 PDF: a quick-start guide and two purpose-specific printable worksheets.
- Read-Me-First.txt with extraction, opening and backup instructions.
The three files are supplied together in one ZIP download.
SPECIFIC FEATURES
- Three adjusted quote totals
- Scope and exclusions checks
- Supplier question log
Compare up to three quotes against the same project scope. Allow for tax where excluded, missing work and provisional costs, then keep supplier questions beside the adjusted totals so differences stay visible.
EXAMPLE
£1,000 excluding 20% user-entered tax plus £150 extras = £1,350 adjusted total.
The supplied example is illustrative. Replace sample figures, dates and records with your own; the examples are not recommended prices or promised outcomes.
USING AND SAVING YOUR FILE
Download and extract the ZIP, then open the HTML file locally in your desktop browser. There is no subscription needed to use the supplied files. Browser-local saving is optional and off by default. It can vary with browser and security settings, so use the manual JSON export/import controls for dated input backups. A results CSV export is separate from the editable JSON backup. Data entered in this tool is not uploaded to a bank or cloud service.
REQUIREMENTS
Use a desktop browser that can open local HTML files and download CSV/JSON files. Checked in desktop Chrome; other browsers and mobile layouts have not been verified. The PDF can be viewed or printed with a PDF reader. No spreadsheet licence is needed for this HTML product.
PRACTICAL LIMITS
Check whether tax and provisional amounts are already included before adding them. Use the scope flag to expose unresolved differences. The tool has no live prices and makes no contractor recommendation.
An adjusted total adds the base quote, the entered tax and additional allowances. It is comparable only if the work and cost assumptions match. A lower number alone does not establish better value or select a supplier.
There are no automatic notifications, messages, applications, transactions or live integrations. You enter and maintain the records and perform any real-world action yourself.
USE LICENCE
One purchaser may use and adapt the files for their own household or their own business's internal use, including internal team working copies. Do not resell, redistribute or publish the files or templates. Nothing in this licence removes your statutory rights.
