What Homeowners Say
" We finished our basement last fall and used RenovationRoute to manage the project. It kept everything in one place; bids, payments, messages and made the process so much better. I liked knowing the money stayed in escrow until we saw the work completed. "

" I wanted to add a 5x7 bathroom to our house and asked our contractor to use RenovationRoute. Getting a professional quote with all of the payment, materials, and timelines all easily available was awesome. Everything stayed organized without the usual confusion. "

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before starting your project
How come I do not have to pay?
The homeowner should not directly pay. Similar to other platforms (Airbnb, Uber, etc.), the service fee is charged and is taken before paying the contractor.
How do I evaluate contractors?
Review contractor ratings, read reviews from past customers, view their completed project history, and compare their bids side-by-side. All reviews come from verified completed projects on the platform.
What if my contractor doesn't complete the work?
If you used escrow, funds stay held until you approve completed milestones. If you used Quick Pay, funds transfer directly without approval hold (still takes 1-2 days via Stripe). We recommend escrow for maximum protection. RenovationRoute provides documentation and communication logs to help resolve any disputes.
Can I manage multiple projects?
Absolutely. Your dashboard keeps all active and completed projects in one place for easy access anytime.
