I’ve had a lot of interest in the cost control toolkit. People have messaged asking for more details. I’ve put a screen grab together with short notes on what each tab does.
If you are interested, there are still some available at the launch price of £59.

A quick example of how self-build budgets start slipping…

Let’s say:

* Groundworks come in £2,500 over
* Steel and structure +£3,000
* A few changes during the build +£4,000

That’s nearly £10k gone — without one major issue.

The problem isn’t the overspend…

It’s that most people don’t see it building until it’s too late.

No clear view = no control.

This is exactly what the tracker shows:

* where you are vs budget
* what changes are doing to your cost
* how much contingency you’ve got left

So you can make decisions early — not at the end.

If you’re self-building and want a copy, comment “TRACKER” or message me.
Some people have asked what the toolkit includes. I have put some screenshots together in this post.

I’ve created a simple Self-Build Cost Control Toolkit to help keep track of your budget as the build progresses.

From what I’ve seen (and from comments on here), most builds don’t go over budget because of one big issue — it’s usually:

* small changes not tracked
* costs that were not allowed for
* paying ahead of progress
* not really knowing where you stand

This is designed to fix that.

It’s not a complicated QS document — just a practical system that lets you:

* track your real position
* see where you’re likely to finish
* monitor your contingency
* avoid overpaying

Comes with:

* Excel tracker
* Step-by-step guide

🔹 Launch price £59 (first 25) Normally £79

If anyone wants it just drop me a private message 👍
