Why renovation contractors pick Hello Renovate

Milestone billing as a first class feature

Split any renovation total into deposit, demo, rough in, cabinet install, and punch list. Invoice each stage separately. Housecall Pro treats invoicing as one final bill because that's what dispatch service teams need.

Renovate AI inside every estimate

Attach a photorealistic mockup of the finished room to your estimate before the client signs. Hello Renovate includes 50 previews per month on Pro, 100 on Pro Plus. Housecall Pro does not ship this.

A pipeline for project stages

Hello Renovate's pipeline board organizes leads and projects by stage. Add a dated task when a follow up is due, and keep estimates with the client workflow.

The same jobs for a lot less.

When Housecall Pro is the better fit

If your revenue is 80 percent same day service calls (HVAC repair, appliance service, cleaning) with a dispatcher assigning techs to routes, Housecall Pro's dispatching and route tools are still best in class for that model. Hello Renovate does not compete there. For renovation, remodeling, and multi week project businesses, Hello Renovate is the fit.

Hello Renovate vs Housecall Pro, answered.

Short answers. Anything else, just ask us.

How do I move from Housecall Pro to Hello Renovate?

Confirm Housecall Pro's current export options and which fields and attachments are included. Hello Renovate does not provide a one-click Housecall Pro migration; verify what can be imported and plan how to preserve project history.

Does Hello Renovate handle recurring maintenance contracts?

Hello Renovate focuses on project estimates and milestone invoices. Verify recurring maintenance scheduling and billing needs with the product before relying on it for those workflows.

How is pricing different?

Hello Renovate lists Pro at $29.99 per month and Pro Plus at $59.99 per month. Request Housecall Pro's current quote for your team and compare billing terms, included users, and features.

What about dispatching field technicians?

Hello Renovate ships crew assignments on projects and milestone due dates with reminders. It's tuned for renovation project scheduling, not daily dispatch of 20+ same day service calls. If daily dispatching is your core need, Housecall Pro is a better tool for that specific model.

How does invoicing work?

Hello Renovate generates a clean branded invoice as a secure link with your payment terms and instructions on it. Your client pays you directly, the way they already do. Hello Renovate does not process the payment.
