Redcity's cost estimate calculator is a tool that approximates the cost of custom-built projects based on various factors such as product type, square metres, delivery location, quantity, and other expenses. You can find it on our custom-build page, right below the products we offer.
The calculator helps in budget planning and decision-making by providing an estimate of the expected expenses. In addition, it helps with risk management by identifying potential cost overruns and assessing the feasibility and profitability of projects.
With that said, here's a breakdown of its components and how it works:
Features:
Product type: This component lists the types of customisable products available, as well as their prices. They include container offices, container homes, branded kiosks, modular houses, upscaled furnishing, and beach cabanas.
Measurement: Here, you decide the number of square metres required for the project, ranging from a minimum of 1 sqm to a maximum of 100 sqm.
Quality Assurance: This feature measures the durability level required, which ranges from 1 to 5.
Add-on services: This stipulates the add-on services included in construction and allows the option of removing or adding said services. The services include design and material procurement. You can add both services or remove one or both, depending on the specific project requirements.
Delivery Zone: Here, you pick the region, within or outside Africa, to which you would like the product delivered.
Quantity: Here, you state the quantity of the product required, the highest being 100 pieces.
Summary and breakdown: This provides a summary of the total cost, as well as a breakdown of individual cost components for transparency and review.
