Remodel Budget Tracker

Track plan vs. actual as the project moves — see exactly where the money is going while you can still do something about it.

What's inside

  • Planned vs. actual tracking by category
  • Spot overruns early instead of at the end
  • Works for any remodel size

Works in Microsoft Excel and free Google Sheets. Secure Stripe checkout, instant download after payment.

What this helps you avoid

  • Finding out you're over budget only when the money runs out.
  • Losing track of what you actually spent versus what you planned.
  • Guessing at your remaining balance halfway through the job.

Who this is for

  • Homeowners mid-remodel who want to watch plan versus actual.
  • Owner-GCs paying multiple trades and suppliers.

Who this is not for

  • Pure up-front planning — start with the Budget Planner, then track here.

Questions

How is this different from the Budget Planner?

The Planner sets the budget before you start; the Tracker follows plan versus actual as the money goes out the door.

Does it calculate for me?

Yes — enter your actuals and it shows the over/under by category automatically.
