  • What does the estimate include?

    It includes the furniture, lighting, curtains and accessories you select. Painting, flooring, electrical work and bespoke joinery need separate quotes. Allow separately for delivery and assembly.

  • How are the prices worked out?

    The calculator multiplies each item’s price range by the quantity you choose, then adds up the ranges. The figures are planning allowances based on UK retail research from November 2026.

  • Can I plan around furniture I already own?

    Yes. Leave those items at zero. If you’re keeping your sofa, for example, you can budget for a rug, a lamp and a side table.

  • How can an interior designer help me make the most of my budget?

    I can help you avoid costly mistakes by checking what fits before you order. We’ll decide what to keep, where spending more will make a difference and where you can save. I’ll plan the layout, furniture, colours and lighting together so each purchase works with the rest of the room. Where trade discounts are available, I’ll show you which products qualify and how to use them. Explore Full Room Design.
