[Concept] Tomy Sonic Remodeled

I have this idea in my head to try and take these dinky little Tomy Sonic figurines made around 1992 or '93 and try to make them better.

Feel free to chime in with suggestions for the Robotnik design because currently, I'm undecided.

Turning a House into a Home

As I mentioned in my previous post, I bought my grans house in April of 2021. What a time buy a house. It was the beginning of the pandemic, when things seemed so temporary. Little did we know, that we were in for the long haul.

This house was basically my childhood home. I grew up here off and on between apartments and various living arrangements. To me, this was home-base. I couldn’t bear to someone else outside of this family in this home. So, I did the unthinkable. I bought a project house in the middle of a pandemic.

My lease was up at my current place, so I did was what logically the right thing to do….I moved home with my mom. What I thought was going to be a quick 4 months living at home, quickly turned into a long 8 months living at home. I was working endlessly on this house. I was juggling 3 jobs, and a full-time college course load. I was at the end of my semester and I was struggling.

You see, the thing about me is, I love being alone. I also thrive in the hustle and the last minute. So, with the goal of solitude on the horizon, I sacrificed so much time and wellbeing to get my house in a state where I could live there. And so it begins…

I plan to separate each blog into sections based on either the room or the project, for brevity sake. I busted out a lot of shenanigans in a short amount of time. However, I am still “technically” working on my house 4 years later, but that’s just a part of my journey.

Can I Use a Building Cost Calculator for Renovations?

Introduction

You’re ready to transform your kitchen, add a second storey, or finally build that backyard studio — but first, the big question:

“Can I use a building cost calculator to estimate my renovation costs?”

It’s a fair starting point. With countless free calculators online, it seems like a quick way to budget.

But here’s the truth: renovations are not like new builds, and square metre calculators don’t always work the way you think.

In this article, we’ll explore:

When cost calculators are helpful

Why renovations are harder to estimate

What factors most calculators miss

And how to get a detailed, accurate renovation estimate

How Building Cost Calculators Work (and Where They Fit In)

Most online calculators ask you to input:

Area (in m²)

Type of build (single or double-storey)

Finish level (standard, premium, custom)

Location

They then apply an average rate (e.g., $2,200/m²) and produce a ballpark total.

This method is simple and effective for:

Project homes

Flat sites

Volume builds

But for renovations? Not so much.

Why Renovation Costs Are Harder to Estimate Per m²

Renovations don’t follow the same rules as new construction. Here’s why:

1. Demolition and Waste Removal

Before you build, you have to remove. Calculators rarely include:

Demolition

Temporary supports

Asbestos removal

Rubbish disposal

2. Structural Uncertainty

You won’t always know what’s behind that wall — and surprises = extra cost:

Electrical rewiring

Plumbing redirection

Damaged joists or slab irregularities

3. Access and Site Limitations

It’s harder and more expensive to work in:

Tight spaces

Occupied homes

Multi-storey inner-city sites

Scaffold hire, crane access, and labour loading must be factored in — calculators don’t cover these.

4. Integration with Existing Structure

It costs more to “tie into” your current layout than to start from scratch. Example:

Matching flooring or brickwork

Adjusting rooflines

Bringing older sections up to code

When a Cost Calculator Might Help

A renovation calculator can give you:

A ballpark figure to assess feasibility

Cost comparison between standard vs high-end finishes

An idea of cost per room (e.g., bathroom vs full-house reno)

Use it early — but don’t rely on it for final planning or financing.

The Better Way: Professional Renovation Estimating

Here’s what we do at AS Estimation & Consultants:

Review your floor plans and renovation brief

Conduct a digital takeoff (materials, labour, waste, etc.)

Factor in site access and demolition requirements

Use local supplier rates and labour costs

Deliver a BOQ or detailed estimate tailored to your project

This results in a more accurate, realistic forecast — especially for:

Kitchen and bathroom upgrades

Storey additions

Structural extensions

Multi-phase renos or heritage properties

FAQs

1. Can I use a building cost calculator for a kitchen renovation?

Only for very rough pricing. A kitchen’s cost depends on cabinetry, electricals, appliances, and plumbing — which calculators can’t fully capture.

2. Are renovation estimates per square metre accurate?

Not usually. Renovation work is more labour-intensive and includes demolition and integration — driving up the cost per m² significantly.

3. What’s the average cost of a home renovation in Australia?

It varies widely. Basic bathroom reno: $15,000–$30,000. Full extension: $2,500–$4,000/m² depending on complexity.

4. How long does a professional renovation estimate take?

Typically 3–5 business days after receiving floor plans and scope of works.

5. Can I use your estimate to compare builder quotes?

Yes — our BOQs help you verify if builder quotes are missing scope or inflated in certain trades.

Final Thoughts

Building cost calculators are great for new builds — but they fall short when it comes to renovations.

If your project involves demolition, custom adjustments, or working around existing structures, your costs will be highly variable. That’s why you need a professional, renovation-specific estimate.

At AS Estimation & Consultants, we understand the challenges of pricing renovations in Australia. We’ve worked on everything from unit makeovers in Sydney to rural property extensions in regional QLD.

Let us help you price your renovation with confidence.
