FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is milestone billing?
Milestone billing splits a project total into stages such as deposit, demo, rough in, cabinet install, and punch list. Each stage becomes its own invoice. It matches how construction actually flows and is the reason established contractors never ask for 50 percent upfront.
How do clients pay my invoices?
Renovate generates a clean branded invoice as a document and a secure link. It carries your own payment terms and instructions, such as Net 15, who to make checks payable to, or bank transfer on request. Your client pays you directly, the way they already pay you. Renovate does not process payments and never touches the money.
Can I send reminders automatically?
Yes. Set a reminder cadence per invoice, such as 3 days after due, 7 days, 14 days. Renovate sends branded emails from your business name until the invoice is marked paid.
Can I set my own payment terms?
Yes. Set your payment terms and instructions once in Settings and they print on every invoice and every milestone, so every client sees exactly how you want to be paid.
Does the invoice look good on mobile?
Every invoice is a mobile responsive branded page with your logo and your payment terms. Clients open the link, see what they owe and how to pay you, and you mark it paid when the money comes in. No printing, no mailing.
What if I need to send a receipt?
When you mark an invoice paid, a receipt with your logo is generated automatically. No manual send required.
Stop chasing invoices. Start tracking them.
Invoices and milestone billing are included in Renovate Pro at $29.99 per month.
