Square / Simple Rectangle

Square / Simple Rectangle — Illustrative diagram

Square / Simple Rectangle is a residential building-planning choice in the Price Your Build estimator. The building footprint changes external wall length, roof geometry, foundation perimeter, drainage and construction complexity.

What this option means

The building footprint changes external wall length, roof geometry, foundation perimeter, drainage and construction complexity.

Why it affects the estimate

The estimator uses this selection to establish an early allowance. Final cost depends on the approved drawings, site conditions, supplier system, installation method and contractor scope.

Before proceeding

  • Test the shape against site setbacks, daylight, circulation, roof drainage and structural spans before fixing the plan.
  • Compare the final specification, exclusions and installation detail against supplier and contractor quotations.
  • Confirm the relevant professional, municipal and product requirements for the actual project.
