Our Story
Born from Frustration, Built for Simplicity
A better way to build, together
RenovationRoute gives both homeowners and contractors the clarity, protection, and confidence they need to succeed from concept to completion.The Problem for Contractors
For contractors, options are limited. Lead apps charge too much, CRMs are overly complicated, and doing everything manually wastes hours quoting, organizing, and chasing payments.
The Problem for Homeowners
Homeowners face significant uncertainty when hiring contractors. Upfront payments offer no protection, estimates shift without warning, and communication gaps create confusion. These issues quickly turn into lost money, wasted time, delays, disputes, and projects that run over budget.
The Idea
RenovationRoute was built to fix what is broken in home improvement. We kept it simple: clear scopes, secure payments, and all communication in one place. Smart Quoting helps generate project details and cost estimates instantly.
The Goal
To make home projects stress free for everyone involved. RenovationRoute gives homeowners peace of mind and helps contractors run smoother, more profitable jobs all tracked, transparent, and fair.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about RenovationRoute
How is RenovationRoute different from Angi, Thumbtack, or Service Titan?
We're not a lead-selling platform (like Angi or Thumbtack) and we're not trying to be a full CRM (like Service Titan). RenovationRoute is focused on what matters most: smart estimating, professional quotes, project tracking, and secure payments. We handle the essentials end to end so both homeowners and contractors can focus on getting the work done.
How does RenovationRoute operate?
Built by a small team of senior engineers and builders, we focus on real value. We created RenovationRoute to solve our own problems, then decided to share it.
Is there a fee to use RenovationRoute?
Posting a project is free for homeowners. Contractors can check out our pricing page for details on contractor fees and payment processing costs.
How does escrow work?
Contractors create a payment schedule. Homeowners fund each milestone. RenovationRoute holds the funds securely and releases them only when the homeowner approves the work.
Can contractors invite their team?
Yes. Add workers and track progress all inside RenovationRoute.
Do I need to download an app?
No. RenovationRoute works seamlessly on desktop, tablet, or mobile.
