Roma are partnered with Refurb Calculator, a data-driven refurbishment costing platform designed to give property developers, investors and entrepreneurs fast, accurate project appraisals based on live UK procurement rates.

Developed by Tony Walker, of Help Build and Rich Devenport, of Overstone, the platform generates a detailed refurbishment budget within minutes, including a full cost breakdown, schedule of works and expenditure summary. Unlike traditional m² benchmarks or assumption-based estimating, Refurb Calculator uses real-time labour and material pricing drawn from active refurbishment projects across the UK, significantly reducing the risk of underestimating costs.

By providing structured schedules of works and clear cost visibility from the outset, the platform enables developers to secure like-for-like contractor quotes, improve cost control and protect profit margins throughout delivery. Their partnership with Roma can strengthen funding applications, allowing their users to send their costed schedules direct to us to obtain a quote for finance on their build.

Suitable for developers of all experience levels, Refurb Calculator requires no drawings, technical expertise or prior cost knowledge – creating appraisal clarity, reducing financial risk and improving project outcomes from day one. They even give you a free deal analysis!
