HOW DOES THE ONLINE CALCULATOR FOR ECO-HOUSE CONSTRUCTION COSTS WORK?
Create an estimated cost for your eco-house in a few simple steps:
Choose the house style – from a modern barnhouse to a classic chalet.
Set the area and foundation type – strip, slab, or pile.
Specify the wall height, technology, and timber thickness – glulam timber, log house, CLT, cylindrical logs, or profiled timber.
Choose the roof structure and roofing material – ceramic tile, standing seam roofing, metal roof tile, etc.
Specify the number and type of windows – energy-efficient profiles with double or triple glazing.
Add interior and entrance doors – choice of materials and design.
Choose the utility systems – electrics, water supply, drainage, heating, ventilation, air conditioning.
Set up the interior and exterior finishing – natural wood, plaster, facade panels, and other options.
After filling in the parameters, you’ll receive the estimated construction cost of your dream eco-house in PDF format.
COST OF BUILDING A WOODEN HOUSE
The cost of building a wooden house in Ukraine depends on the chosen technology, area, foundation type, and level of finishing, but on average ranges from €750/m² (economy solution made of profiled timber or hewn logs) to €1500/m² and above (premium segment made of glulam timber or CLT panels). The price per 1 m² of a wooden house is made up of the cost of the wall material, roof structure, windows and doors, utility networks, and the completion level (“under roof” or “turnkey” with utilities and finishing). To avoid relying on abstract figures and instead see the real budget for your specific project, use our Online Calculator for wooden house construction costs: it accounts for all 7 main construction stages and generates a detailed estimate in PDF format, which can be used for budget planning, comparing options, and further work with a KOLEO estimating engineer.

| Thermal resistance | 3.8 m²·K/W | 3.8 m²·K/W |
| Eco-friendliness | 8/10 | – |
| Service life | 100 years | – |
🟢 Your wooden house made of 200×200 mm glulam timber is equivalent in thermal insulation to a 380 mm brick wall with 250 mm of insulation. Wood materials naturally have better thermal insulation and don’t require additional insulation.

We work throughout Ukraine.
The price is formed from several main factors:
technology (glulam timber, CLT, log house, etc.);
area and number of storeys;
foundation type;
roofing material;
completion level (under roof, turnkey).
The KOLEO calculator accounts for these parameters automatically, so the result is as close as possible to reality.
The basic package includes:
preliminary design and structural solutions;
manufacturing of the wall kit (timber / CLT / logs);
floor beams, truss system, roof deck;
protective wood treatment.
🪚 Utilities, finishing, and furnishing are calculated separately after choosing the style.
The difference is due to three factors:
Production technology. For example, CLT is more expensive due to its multi-layer structure.
Materials. Premium-grade timber, membranes, insulation — affect the final amount.
Currency exchange rate and logistics. KOLEO forms the price in euros, so the current rate is fixed at the time of contract signing.
Profiled timber: from €750/m²
Glulam timber: from €950/m²
CLT panels: from €1100/m²
Hewn logs: from €750/m²
Cylindrical logs: from €850/m²
💡 The final cost depends on the completion level, architecture, and construction region.
Under roof — this is the structure + roof (without interior works).
Turnkey — a full cycle: foundation, structures, utilities, finishing, landscaping.
The difference can amount to +35–50% over the base cost.
Yes, KOLEO can adapt the solution to your budget.
Possible ways:
choosing a smaller area or simpler geometry;
simplifying the roof (gable instead of hip);
economical finishing materials;
doing part of the work yourself or in stages.
Our estimating engineer will help balance aesthetics, quality, and budget.
Delivery is not included in the online calculator.
After generating the estimate, KOLEO calculates the logistics individually — depending on the region of Ukraine or EU country.
Yes.
After the online calculation, you can order the design and estimate documentation (DD + DED).
It includes:
detailed drawings;
the exact volume of materials;
an official commercial offer with fixed prices.
This is the next step after the preliminary calculation in the calculator.
Yes, of course.
The calculator is based on Ukrainian conditions, but our engineers adapt the calculation to the standards and climate of your country (Germany, Poland, Hungary, Ireland, etc.).
Simply leave a request — we’ll prepare a European version of the estimate.
After approving the architectural solution and signing the contract for developing the structural part (“DD”).
At this stage, KOLEO guarantees a fixed price and timeframe for manufacturing your house.
