Project Cost Calculator

An early planning range for a custom home, whole-home remodel, or addition — built from the same cost data we publish in our Utah pricing guides. The more you tell us, the tighter the range gets. This is a budgeting tool, not a construction quote.

This is the cost to build on a lot you already own. It does not include land. Production builders advertise a starting price with the lot bundled in — this number is not comparable to those. What is and isn’t covered is listed with your result.

Step 1 — The basics

The whole house under roof, basement included. Garage is counted separately below.
Jurisdiction, access, and trade availability move costs more than most people expect.

Step 2 — Refine the estimate

Slope, excavation, access, structure, and roofline complexity.
Count half-baths as 0.5. Baths are the highest cost-per-foot rooms in the house.
