Site visit cost calculator

What are avoidable site visits costing your business?

Use your own travel time, time on site, labour value and number of information-only visits. The calculator shows the time and labour value attached to those trips. It does not assume every site visit can or should be replaced.

The starting values are examples only. Replace them with your own numbers.

This is the cost of the visits you entered. It is not a claim that HomeWalk will eliminate every one of them. Some jobs still need inspection, measurement or professional verification on site.

What counts as avoidable?

Only count visits that happened because the brief was incomplete.

A site visit needed for inspection, measurement, diagnosis, compliance or final design belongs on site. The useful target is the trip made mainly to collect information that could reasonably have been gathered beforehand.

1Keep required visitsIf your professional judgement needs the site, count it as required.
2Find information-only tripsLook for missing photos, model numbers, access details, scope clarification or other basic context.
3Improve intake firstCollect the missing detail before anyone commits time to travel.
How HomeWalk fits

Give the customer a guided way to provide the missing information.

HomeWalk can collect answers, choices, notes, access details, files and guided photos in one brief. Your team still decides whether the information is enough to quote or whether a site visit is required.
