If you prepare residential building estimates then you need access to Cordell’s Database
Whether you are pricing a concrete strip footing, a new brick veneer wall, a 1st floor extension or a complete house, all the building cost information you need is contained in the Cordell Residential Database. Plus, all the labour and material costs are detailed separately.
All your labour costs are included
Every costing rate includes the labour required to fix the item into position, all material costs including appropriate allowances for waste and any plant hire costs involved. Each element is shown independently and then totalled to give you the total dollar value. This allows you to accurately compare the rate given against your own particular situation then accept the rate or make any price adjustments.
