Zillow Digs Showcases Home Improvement Projects, Complete With Costs

iOS: Two of the most challenging things about home renovations are figuring out what you want to do with the space and estimating how much it’s going to cost you. Zillow Digs solves both of those problems by showcasing over 400,000 project photos plus cost estimates.

Using the app for inspiration and information is easy. You can filter the photos by room or space (including home offices, home theatres, exteriors and gardens), as well as colour and cost (budget, mid-range or luxury).

The cost estimates are based on your location and calculated by Zillow, which analyses the materials, room size and approximate labour rate — so it’s not an exact cost but rather a starting point for discussion with your contractor. Not all photos have estimated costs, but many include other details, such as names of the paint colours.

You can save photos to different boards, Pinterest-style, view similar rooms and contact the home contractor directly from the app.

All in all, the free app is a great tool for anyone interested in upgrading their home.
