to many variables here, how high, time frame, new or old construction, what brand of paint ,  am I going to need any specialty equiptment, any duct work to paint, any metal doors, overhead doors,\nmost of the time you cant get a sq ft price till someone sees the print or knows all the info.

you are too vague for estimating, Are you going to manufacture? or buy from a wholesaler? or have someone else make it for you? How large a space do you need ? you will need office staff, warehouse staff, computer systems, software, Phone systemsforklifts, storage systems, Trucking companys need to be contacted and .....  Too many variables . You need a business plan

Well, that depends on what constitutes a 'medium' sized candle.  If each candle contained 100g of paraffin, that's 200 candles.  If you are out 40, your material cost is 20 p per candle.  Considering it will take you ~4 hrs labor (probably more) at 14/hr (low end for entrepreneur), labor cost is 28 p per candle.  So if you want a 10% profit, you should charge at least 55 p per 100g candle.  This is for wholesale, if you are selling them individually by yourself, figure out how long it will take.  A good markup from wholesale to retail is usually ~40%, or final price of approx. one pound per candle.

"How long is a piece of string?"\n\nWell really you could expect to pay from £10 per hour up to £60! Generally you do get what you pay for. If you are looking for a designer, take a look at their previous work and make sure they have the talent you need.\n\nIf you do decide to go ahead, you may want to get a project based price (i.e.: they agree to do your work for a fixed price - which cannot go up).\n\nGet it all in a contract!\n\nStewart

If you buy the materials, then about 5$ per square foot.

You need to know cost per square foot.

Figure a single story and multiply it times seven.  In Colorado costs run between $76 to $100 per square foot.  Not including land, water tap, sewer taps, power lines to meter, permits, infrastructure.

You are not specific on your question.  Are you talking about blue prints or just floor plans?  Try Architectural Digest site maybe.

A friend of mine has a framing business. She has fabulous books of art works, prints and posters she orders for her clients. \n\nBeautifully crafted, sophisticated pottery is another option, as well as the (frameable) work of local artists. Instead of putting your own money into their works, contact local talented potters and artists and take their work on consignment. Use contracts and make it a business agreement. This gives them an outlet for their work and gives you merchandise without an outlay of your own cash. It also gives you an artistic 'gallery' atmosphere. \n\nDo you have enough space to rent to artists to give group art classes? These people would be future customers of yours and allow you to make the space pay.\n\nIf you use any of these ideas and it works out let me know. I would be interested to hear. Good luck with your venture!

There are a lot of variables that you have to take into consideration, like who will be the general contractor, taxes, permits, etc.  The one thing that I can tell you is that the cost would probably be extremely high.  Palm Beach has some of the most expensive land in the state, I am just guessing but you can probably expect the lot itself to cost at least 200 grand.  Then you will have to buy the blueprints and have cop pies made of them,  maybe about 600 dollars.  After that you have to have a foundation poured, about 3 to 4 thousand( plus anywhere from 30 to 80 dollars extra per square foot for a basement).  Add to that the total for materials for rough framing,  somewhere in the area of 20 to 50 thousand.  Then the finishing materials,  anywhere from 20 to 120 thousand depending on how nice you want ot make the place.  Then you have your contractors.  The framers will be somewhere in the 20 to 80 thousand dollar range.  Then you have the electricians, plumbers, drywallers, the floor guys, the siders, painters, trim carpenters, and landscapers.  All this adds up to a ton of money.

Dont' go by anything you read on here. The prices very from state to state. Not a lot but they do. \n\nThe best bet is to call a local lumber company and ask them how much shingles would be for 45 squares, then get a price on architectural, now a days the prices are pretty close to each other. \n\nThen after you find out the price of the shingles you could call a roofing company for a free estimate. I'd call 2 or 3 to see if they are pretty accurate. \n\n*Good Luck*

Yes, you'll need to find the area of each of the faces of the cube.\n\nReminder a cube is a 6 sided figure with 6 square faces.  It is the same shape as a dice that you throw in board games.\n\nEach edge is 10 feet,\n\nso the area of each face is 10 x 10 feet squared\n\n=100feet squared.\n\nFour of these sides will have a total area of 4 x 100 feet squared\n\n=400 feet squared.\n\nThe paint used costs $5 per square foot,\n\nso total cost for the 4 faces with ceaper paint = $400 x 5\n\n=$2000\n\nNow consider the other 2 faces,\n\nThey have a total area of 2 x 100 square feet\n\n= 200 sq. ft.\n\nCost of painting these is $10 per sq.ft.\n\n=$10 x 200 \n\n= $2000\n\nAs each lot of painting costs $2000\n\nThe whole cube (6 faces) costs $2000+ 2000\n\n=$4000

You can't get a buildout estimate from someone on Yahoo whose never seen your building. There's too many variables to consider. What you spend has to do with the decisions you make, and how much structural work, plumbing, HVAC improvements you need. Whether you have to replace the water heater, electrical work, fixtures, the size of ventilation system and grease trap, not just that you need them. Flooring surfaces can range from $2.00 per sq. foot to $25 per sq. foot. The type of finishes you choose will effect the price. The types of tables and chairs, in addition to how many you put in.\n\nYou're asking a question that can't be answered on here. Small, low rent restaurants could range in price from $20,000 to open, up to $300,000 or more.\n\nDetermine your opening costs by building a business plan off a rough overhead sketch of the operation. A beginners blueprint. Include everything you can think of, then organize into separate spreadsheets and price them out. You should have a spreadsheet for furniture, fixtures and finishes. You should have separate ones for kitchen equipment including your ventilation and grease trap, another for office equipment and supplies including any POS hardware and software or televisions and music systems throughout the restaurant, a smallwares list, beginning paper goods inventory, beginning linen inventory, beginning food inventory. Make a separate buildout spreadsheet with everything for the bathroom including fixtures, finishes, etc. This will make it easier to estimate the cost of a second bathroom if you need two. You then need a list of any permits and fees you'll have to pay to open.\n\nTake all this information to an architect. The architect will see costs you hadn't prepared for and will build a real blueprint. \n\nAfter you have everything priced out and suppliers for everything chosen, take the blueprint and your buildout lists to at least three quality construction companies and ask for bids. Don't try to shave expenses by using a budget general contractor, you'll regret it when your job isn't finished on time and it will end up costing you more in lost time than for paying a quality company. Ask for ideas from each company to save on your existing plan.\n\nIf you need help with any of this, or want to purchase some example templates to build a better business plan, contact me through my website. I give free initial consultations.\n\nBrandon O'Dell\nO'Dell Consulting\nRestaurants/Retail/Bars\nbodell1@cox.net\nhttp://www.bodellconsulting.com

I did this for awhile and did pretty good.  I only did it at Christmas b/c I was in collage at the time.  I had repeat customers that kept me as busy as I wanted to be so I didn't have to advertise.  If you are creative another idea is decorate houses for Christmas...this was hard but very fun and I charged about $40 an hour so the pay is great!  Only bad thing about it was getting everything out of the attic ready to decorate so try to get your customer to do that for you and I never took down b/c I was sick of it all by then but there is great money in that too!!!  Back to the wrapping...try to get your supplies wholesale including boxes and tissue...this helps!  Good luck and have fun!!

it depends what you know how to do.  The easiest and least expensive would be painting because you dont need that much start up money

Just figure out everything you need and all that labor crap to. Some people businesses give you free estimates. I know roofing place do. Get one of them to estimate your job and go from there. But if its bigger you might need a little help. *
