What Hello Renovate offers remodeling contractors

Milestone billing is built in

Turn an accepted estimate into a schedule of deposit, progress, and final invoices. Give each stage a clear amount and payment terms. Jobber also supports progress invoicing on every plan, so staged payments alone are not a reason to switch. Compare how each workflow fits your actual projects.

Renovate AI room mockups

Upload a room photo and generate a renovation concept to help a homeowner discuss finishes and scope. Pro includes 50 generations a month and Pro Plus includes 100. A preview is a conversation aid, not a measured drawing or a promise that the finished room will match it.

Two monthly plans

Hello Renovate Pro is $29.99 a month and includes estimates, invoices, contacts, pipeline, tasks, schedule, and Renovate AI. Pro Plus is $59.99 a month and adds a public storefront and a higher generation allowance. Compare team seats and required features before choosing either product. Jobber prices vary by plan, team size, and billing term.

The same jobs for a lot less.

When Jobber is the better fit

Jobber is worth keeping if recurring visits, route optimisation, native field apps, or automated invoice follow ups are central to your business. A remodeler who also runs a maintenance crew may need those tools as much as progress billing. Hello Renovate does not replace those workflows. Before moving, list the features your crew uses each week, compare both products against that list, and include the time needed to enter existing client and project records.

Hello Renovate vs Jobber, answered.

Short answers. Anything else, just ask us.

Can I import my contacts and jobs from Jobber?

There is no automated Jobber import in Hello Renovate. Add client records directly and start with new projects rather than assuming old quotes, invoices, attachments, and payment history will transfer. Keep access to the records you need in Jobber while you decide how to handle active work. A software change should not interrupt an invoice your client is already expecting.

Does Hello Renovate support recurring service contracts like Jobber?

Hello Renovate focuses on project-based estimates and milestone billing. Verify recurring service, scheduling, and invoicing capabilities directly with both vendors for your exact workflow.

How does the pricing actually work?

Hello Renovate Pro is $29.99 a month with unlimited estimates and invoices and 50 AI generations. Pro Plus is $59.99 a month with a public storefront and 100 generations. Both are paid plans. Jobber has multiple plans and billing terms, so use its current pricing page to compare the features, seats, and billing period you need. Do not compare an annual equivalent price with a monthly subscription as if they were the same commitment.

Do I get the same mobile experience as Jobber?

Hello Renovate works in your phone's browser today, so you can send estimates and invoice milestones from any job site. Native iOS and Android apps are coming soon. Jobber has shipped native apps for longer.

What about scheduling? Jobber's calendar is famous.

Hello Renovate has a calendar for project events and tasks, with client and assignee details. It does not offer route optimisation. Jobber supports scheduling and routing for field visits. If travel between service calls is a major part of your day, include that requirement in your comparison rather than choosing only on invoicing or price.

Does Jobber support progress invoices for remodeling jobs?

Yes. Jobber's progress invoicing documentation says it is available on all plans. It lets you set a payment schedule on a quote or a job and generate invoices as work progresses. Hello Renovate also supports milestone billing. Compare how you create the schedule, communicate payment terms, and track each stage before deciding which workflow is easier for your office.

What should I compare using a real kitchen remodel?

Use the same sample scope in both products: cabinet work, counters, tile, labor, and any exclusions. Check whether you can build the estimate, get online approval, set deposit and progress invoices, and find the client's documents from your phone. Review how scope changes are handled and which features require a different plan. Use a sample project first so active client billing stays uninterrupted.
