How estimates work in Hello Renovate.

Three steps, and you already do all of them on every job.

1

Build it

Add the client, pick lines from your catalog and set quantities, notes and tax. Unit cost on each line shows your margin as you go.

2

Send it

Text or email a secure link. The client sees a clean estimate on their phone, with your logo and your terms.

3

Get it signed

They approve and sign online. You are notified, the deal moves on your pipeline and the estimate is ready to bill.

Everything you need to price a job properly.

Built for renovation work, where every job is different and the margin is thin.

Catalog based line items

Save your materials, labor and bundles once. Add them to any estimate with quantity, notes and tax.

Cost and margin on every line

Enter your unit cost and see profit per line and for the whole job before you send.

Online signature

Clients approve from a secure link on any device. You keep a record of who signed and when.

Change orders

Add scope mid job and send a change order the client signs, linked to the original estimate.

Reusable terms

Save your payment terms and warranty language and attach them to every estimate.

Linked to the client

Every estimate sits on the client record next to their invoices, notes and photos.

Estimates questions, answered.

Short answers. Anything else, just ask us.

What is estimating software for contractors?

It is an app for building quotes from a saved price book, sending them to clients and collecting a signature online, instead of working from spreadsheets and PDFs.

Can my client sign on their phone?

Yes. They get a secure link, review the estimate and sign on any phone, tablet or computer. You are notified as soon as they do.

Can I see my profit on an estimate?

Yes. Add your unit cost to each line and the estimate shows margin per line and for the whole job. Clients never see your cost.

What happens when the scope changes?

Create a change order from the estimate. The client signs it the same way, and it stays linked to the original job.

Does an estimate turn into an invoice?

Yes. A signed estimate becomes a draw schedule of milestone invoices, and each one goes out with a pay link.

Is estimating included in the price?

Yes. Estimates are in both Pro at $29.99 a month and Pro Plus at $59.99 a month, with no extra fee per estimate.
