How Payments Work
Set Payment Milestones
The contractor creates a clear payment schedule, listing each item, amount, and due date. This keeps the project organized and expectations aligned before work begins.
Fund Each Milestone
Homeowners only deposit funds for the next milestone when it is due, not the entire project upfront. RenovationRoute holds the payment securely in Stripe powered escrow until that milestone is completed.
Work, Verify, and Communicate
Contractors complete the milestone work while both sides track progress, share photos, and communicate directly through the platform. Transparency is built in every step of the way.
Approve and Release Payment
When the homeowner reviews and approves the completed milestone, RenovationRoute releases the funds instantly to the contractor. Payments arrive in 1-2 business days. Fast, fair, and fully tracked.
Pricing FAQs
We keep things clear and easy to understand. Here’s everything you need to know about RenovationRoute pricing.
How does the 1% escrow fee work?
Whenever a payment is processed through RenovationRoute’s escrow, we charge a 1% fee to cover secure handling and platform maintenance.
Do homeowners pay anything upfront?
No. Posting a project is free. After the homeowner has selected the contractor and agreed on the price, homeowners will only deposit funds for the next milestone before the due date.
Do contractors have to pay for every lead?
No. Contractors can bid for free. You only pay the $20 unlock fee if the homeowner selects your bid.
What if a project gets cancelled?
If a homeowner cancels before work starts, escrow funds can be refunded. Contractors are never charged for cancelled jobs.
Will there be subscription plans?
Yes. Pro and Premium tiers are coming soon, offering advanced analytics, lead insights, and preferred bidding placement.
