Reliable, accurate and detailed quantity surveying and building cost management services for residential building projects throughout New Zealand.
When it comes to ensuring your residential building project runs on time and on-budget, it’s essential to engage an experienced quantity surveyor.
Whether you are a builder, architect or homeowner, the team at Accurate Costings are committed to providing professional quantity surveying services. We will work with you during all stages of your project or contract, from Preliminary Costings through to Tendering, Construction and Contract Management.
Preliminary Costings
Cost planning is an important part of any construction project whether it be a new build, addition or alteration. We will prepare Preliminary Costings for your building project to ensure you have an accurate idea of cost and feasibility before you commit additional funds to further develop the design.
As Quantity Surveyors, we provide full Preliminary Costings that calculate as accurately as possible the anticipated cost of the project. These costs are clearly separated into trades to assist you with value management while enabling you to make decisions on where you can reduce costs if required to keep the project within budget.
Construction Costings
Our Construction Costings provide you with the most accurate and detailed breakdown of all construction elements required to complete your building project whether it be a new build, addition or alteration.
Our Construction Costings include actual sub-trade quotes, not provisional sums or estimates. This provides you with the most accurate and realistic costing breakdown for all your building project’s construction elements.
We understand that when submitting a bid for works or arranging finance, complete accuracy is essential to maintain profitability and ensure that borrowings are sufficient to enable completion of the project.
