What is Home-Cost?

This innovative software is essential for anyone looking to navigate the complexities of homebuilding costs effectively.

What is CostMate?

CostMate helps New Zealand residential builders, from sole traders to small crews, price a job and then run it. It covers 17 job types such as decks, fences, bathrooms, kitchens, reclads and additions. For each one it lists the materials with quantities, the labour hours by stage, and the assumptions and exclusions your client should see. Prices are taken from Dayle ITM or PlaceMakers trade pricing, or from your own uploaded supplier pricing, on every plan. The figures are calculated by a rules engine, not by AI; AI only writes the wording. Once the quote is accepted, the same job carries on with variations, purchase orders, progress claims and crew hours that count only after you approve them. Built in Auckland by a qualified carpenter. Free plan available, plus 30 days of full access for new accounts, no card needed.
