How to use these figures

The postcode-aware calculators use the same North West model and can be adjusted manually when a project sits outside the assumptions.

Start with the table to understand project scale, then use a calculator to add floor area, condition, finish level and other project-specific inputs. A postcode-aware calculator can infer the same broad region while still allowing a manual override.
