Renovation Project Brief Builder
Write down what you want from the renovation, room by room: notes, the finishes you have in mind, the measurements you have taken with their units, annotated photos, your budget assumptions and what matters most. The builder sets it out as a brief you can hand to the professionals you talk to.
It is a planning brief only. It does no structural calculations and has nothing to do with permits or approvals, and it says so on the page. It is made in your browser and is not uploaded or stored by Zerdly.

How to use the Renovation Project Brief Builder
- Pick a layout: concise summary, room by room with photos, or detailed brief.
- Enter a project title and your goals, then add rooms with notes.
- Add measurements with a unit for each. Leave the value empty if you have not measured it yet; it prints as Unknown: to be measured.
- Add finishes for each room, budget lines with their currency, and priorities. Upload photos and add a photo note to place a photo in a room with a caption.
- Choose Create document, check the brief under View your document, then download the PDF.
Example
A kitchen and laundry refresh: a 3,450 mm wall (± 10 mm), a laundry floor area still to measure, three finishes, a 25,300.00 AUD planned budget and three priorities.
What it does not do
- No structural calculations, engineering, permits, approvals or compliance checks. Ask a qualified professional about walls, wet areas, electrical and plumbing work.
- Every measurement must have a unit, and values print exactly as you typed them. Nothing is converted, rounded or estimated, and an empty value prints as Unknown: to be measured.
- Budget totals are simple sums of your lines for each currency. They are your own planning figures, not quotes.
- Up to 250 pages and 500 entries in any list.
